Patrick Beverley tweeted out prior to the start of ESPN’s 2K tournament stating that everyone was light. The LA Clippers guard backed up his words, dominating his first-round matchup versus Hassan Whiteside 84-54.
No one knew what to expect from the tournament. The games only had 2K’s in-game commentary playing while players were expected to add their own talk. After a night of very limited chatter, fans watching the tournament felt a little underwhelmed. Luckily, Beverley was scheduled as the final game of the night.
Things started off odd though. Whiteside and Beverley chatted a little as they selected teams with Whiteside picking the Los Angeles Lakers.
