During the semifinal round of the NBA’s players-only NBA 2K tournament, Devin Booker of the Phoenix Suns, faced off against LA Clippers forward Montrezl Harrell, who opted to play with the Houston Rockets. This added a level of intrigue for Rockets fans, because Deandre Ayton had been the only other player to select them upto that point.
Although Harrell’s pick may have been refreshing for Rockets Nation, the excitement didn’t last long, as Harrell trailed by double-figures by halftime. Harrell was ultimately defeated 68-54, which was bound to happen, considering how he was misusing the Rockets.
