Nuggets’ Michael Porter Jr. to compete in NBA 2K Players Tournament

Sure, Michael Porter Jr. moves well on the court and has a silky smooth shot, but how good are his thumbs?

The Nuggets forward is one of 16 professional basketball players who will compete in the NBA 2K Players Tournament, which kicks off 5 p.m. Friday on ESPN and ESPN2. The competitors will play head-to-head online in NBA 2K20.

“We’re thrilled to partner with the NBA and NBPA to bring basketball back to fans throughout the world and to help those in need during these uncertain times,” 2K senior vice president of sports strategy and licensing Jason Argent said in a news release.
