Growing up, many NBA stars dream of running out of the tube and into 2K MT a massive stadium filled with thousands of fans roaring. Perhaps the only delight that may rival realizing your dream of making it into the pros would be to buy the latest edition of NBA2K to watch yourself in the video game that you played growing up. Even though it may seem insignificant, there is a feeling of coming full circle.
Countless NBA players have experienced this feeling. However, not just one WNBA player had until recently. When NBA 2K20 premiered in 2019, it had been the very first time the annual game -- which thrived in 1999 -- featured WNBA players. Her predecessors didn't get the opportunity to play as themselves, but Washington Mystics wing Aerial Powers couldn't help but make a comparison when she played as herself. "This is probably how the men feel when they get into the league and they get a chance to play themselves 2K," she explained. "It is just surreal and is pretty fun."
"I would have never thought they'd apply girls into the game," Powers told USA TODAY Sports. Dallas Wings guard Allisha Gray was playing 2K since Shaquille O'Neal graced the cover at 2005, and that she has trouble believing that she's a part of it. Alexis Jones, who was waived by the Atlanta Dream in August, has consistently enjoyed making her very own player on 2K and will mold his game after her own. This will be the first year she will not have to create herself at the picture of a guy.
"That was my dream come true, I really don't know about everybody else," Jones stated. "I understand that's 1 thing I always dreamed of as a little girl -- to be in a 2K match. This opportunity to Cheap NBA 2K21 MT make yourself and build yourself and be a girl is dope." The importance of building your own WNBA player can't be overstated, especially for young girls who aspire to play basketball or are just fans of the sport. "I think that it's amazing that little girls can develop and actually play the game and understand that they can still have the very same goals and accomplishments as men," Jones stated. Powers echoed the sentiment and how important representation is for young ladies. She also wants to see more progression with women in the video game business generally.
