Illinois Basketball is one of 10 playable college teams in NBA 2k17

College sports video games are, unfortunately, a thing of the past, but that hasn’t stopped 2K Sports from implementing teams into their annual basketball franchise. The 2015 version of the game featured ten playable collegiate programs in the lauded ‘MyCareer’ mode, and that advancement will be making a return this Fall. The best part about it? The Fighting Illini will be one of the selectable teams!

2K Sports dropped the following trailer for NBA 2k17 on Friday morning and, if you fast-forward to the 33-second mark, you’ll see this year’s new crop of college teams. In addition to Illinois, users will be able to select Kansas, Georgetown, Arizona, Louisville, UConn, Oklahoma, Georgia Tech, Michigan State, and Wake Forest.
