The trailer for NBA 2K18 has been released and the talk for Nets fans has been D’Angelo Russell, who was shown in the preview a couple of times reppin’ the black and white. Mozgov was in it momentarily, too.
Of course, zero Nets were in the preview last year, so Russell gives them a little relevance. He was in the preview as a Laker in 2K17.
He’s a popular player among the younger crowd of people playing these games, as we’ve written. It’s great for the Nets because it helps them on the court -- nabbing a 21-year-old that can be a big part of this rebuilding process.
