“We are thrilled to team up with the NBA 2K League to bring new opportunities for our players to engage and interact with a game that so many of them love,” the Chief Commercial Officer for Think450, the innovation and partnership engine of the NBPA, Josh Goodstadt, said. “This first-of-its-kind partnership between a players’ association and an eSports league reflects our players’ passion for gaming and we are excited to begin to bring it all to life this coming season.”
