A key member of this season’s NBA 2K League Champion Wizards District Gaming team, Just_Awkward, was a finalist in the 2019 District Gaming Classic. Additionally, one player from a non-winning team in each console tournament will be selected to receive a “Prospect Badge” and be entered into February’s draft combine. The five players from the winning team on each console tournament will be become Draft Eligible, pending approval by the NBA 2K League, and be entered into a first-of-its-kind draft combine in February.
