Young Lakers and Kobe Star in New NBA 2K17 Commercial

The NBA season is just about three weeks away from starting but the creators over at 2K are doing their best to hype up fans, especially those who follow the Lakers, for an exciting year.

Featuring nearly every major player who swapped teams this offseason — Kevin Durant, Derrick Rose, Dwyane Wade, etc. — one of the most interesting inclusions in their newest commercial is the up-and-coming squads, specifically the Los Angeles Lakers and the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Ironically, despite being near the bottom of the pre-season power rankings, the fact that 2K continues to include LA in their commercials speaks to the team’s ability to draw in the masses.
