Raptors Uprising GC really is a family affair this season with brothers Jerry and Jake Knapp adding to the low-maintenance, low-ego feel of the unbeaten NBA 2K League team.
While point guard Kenneth (Kenny Got Work) Hailey and centre Jerry (Sick One) Knapp are the stars of the team, younger brother Jake (Legit 973) Knapp has joined lockdown defender Trent (Timelycook) Donald and Maurice (ReeceMode) Flowers in arguably the league’s best quintet.
“The way that you form NBA 2K League teams is you’ve got to have a balance of stars and role players,” said Shane Talbot, esports manager at Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment.
