Whiteside to represent Portland Trail Blazers in NBA 2K tournament

The NBA remains on hiatus, but NBA 2K has teamed up with the league to try and fill the void in fans lives right now. Starting tonight on ESPN, 16 NBA players will enter into a 2K tournament, hoping to claim some virtual bragging rights.

To make it even better, the Portland Trail Blazers will have someone to root for! Hassan Whiteside, who has been touted as an experienced gamer before, will be representing the Blazers in the tournament, and has even picked Portland as one of his 8 teams available to use.

He’ll start off against Patrick Beverley, a game which will be sure to contain a huge amount of trash talk.
