After months of tryouts, prospect cut downs, and even some controversy, the inaugural NBA 2K League draft has finally come.
With Adam Silver at the podium and Mavs Gaming (Dallas Mavericks) on the clock after winning the draft lottery, point guard Artreyo “Dimez” Boyd became the first ever selection of the NBA 2K League.
Following Dimez to Dallas, Celtics Crossover Gaming took oFab while Jazz Gaming took Yeah I Compete, making three PG the top three picks of the draft.
Taking place at Madison Square Garden in New York City, 102 players had their dreams fulfilled as they become paid professional gamers. With salaries ranging from $32,000 to $35,000 including all housing and benefits paid, the players will all be around their teammates from the moment they are selected by their new team.
