NBA and Take-Two Interactive announce the launch the NBA 2K eLeague. It is a professional competitive gaming league that aims to bring together players across the globe.

According to the official NBA website, the eSports league is the first ever of its kind to be operated by one of the biggest pro sports leagues in the United States.

In an interview cited by the same publication, NBA commissioner Adam Silver said that he looks forward to working with Take-Two Interactive, combining the former's best-in-class NBA team operators with the latter's competitive gaming expertise. This way, it will give fans of both the actual league and its eSports counterpart a completely refreshing experience.

The eSports league is set to be launched in 2018, and each of the founding teams will be composed of five pro eSports players, which will be announced sometime in the near future. The eSports league will follow an actual pro league format: competing throughout a regular season, a bracketed playoff system, and a championship matchup.

Meanwhile, according to Reddit, the latest player for the "NBA 2k17" Locker Codes mechanic is Kevin Love, who will have a 99 overall player rating in his Moments Card version. The official "NBA 2k17" Twitter account recently gave the code to aspiring fans.


Getting the Moments Card for Love and other NBA players will only require a few moments. In the "NBA 2K17" main menu, players will need to go to the Options/Features menu and select Locker Codes. Once the interface pops up, the code must be entered along with the dashes.

Upon success, a message will appear, saying that the Moments Card has been added. The code is not a timed offer, so players can enter the Locker Codes at their own leisure.

"NBA 2K17" is now available for the PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. Here is the latest video for the game:
