Raptors Uprising are set to tip-off in the second season of the NBA 2K League tonight. loung_s spoke to the team about the upcoming campaign and why they have some unfinished business.
’ official NBA 2K League club, begin their new season Tuesday against Mavs Gaming in the “Tip Off Tournament,” where a prize pool of $120,000 will be up for grabs.
Last season, RUGC began their season with a 1-5 record, but ended up running the table the rest of the way to reach the post-season as the hottest team in the league. They ended up falling to – who else? – Cavs Legion GC in the first round of the playoffs, but that confidence the team had during that streak last year has carried over to this season in no small part because of the way the squad has been assembled.
Joining the existing Uprising members this year will be 2019 first-round pick Frederick “Doza” Mendoza, who played for Pistons GT last year, and league newcomer Georgio “OOC Slim” Bonte, a pair that the existing group of guys were already familiar and comfortable playing with.
