The NBA 2K League is coming to ESPN2 and Canadian sports network Sportsnet One and Sportsnet NOW beginning Tuesday. It will continue to air every Tuesdays from 7 to 9 p.m. ET on both channels. ESPN2 will air the Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays matches on the ESPN app and ESPN.com.
The esports broadcast features teams competing in 5 vs. 5 gameplay using non-existing NBA characters, with the season running throughout the summer. This marks the first-ever broadcast of NBA 2K League games on TV in Canada.
All 23 NBA 2K League teams, including the Toronto Raptors affiliate, Raptors Uprising GC, will participate in regular-season gameplay from their local markets.
