Raptors Uprising GC, yet to lose this season, swept Kings Guard Gaming on Friday night to win the NBA 2K League’s $160,000 U.S. Tipoff tournament.
The Raptors, the class of the league this season, did not disappoint as the esports circuit switched to tournament play this week. Toronto, the last team standing in the field of 23, won the best-of-three final over Sacramento by scores of 76-57 and 79-49.
Star point guard Kenneth (Kenny Got Work) Hailey, quietly building an MVP-calibre campaign, led Toronto with 23 points and nine assists in Game 1.
The Raptors hit 10-of-16 shots from three-point range as they ran away in the second half.
