'It's about time': Storm players excited about NBA 2K video game franchise including WNBA mode

SEATTLE — With 144 players in the WNBA, the selection of players to choose from is almost overwhelming.

But for Storm All-Star forward Natasha Howard, the choice is simple: She just wants to play as herself.

"It's going to be fun and to actually look like ourselves too, like our hair and our tattoos, especially me looking at myself too," she said. "It's going to be amazing, and I can't wait to play."

The WNBA made its NBA 2K debut in the game's release of 2K20 last Friday. While the WNBA was featured in NBA Live in 2018, this is just the second time the league has been represented in a sports video game.
