Pacers Gaming Posts Opening for Video Production Intern

Pacers Gaming is looking to hire a multimedia intern for the 2020 NBA 2K League season.

The intern will work with Pacers Gaming Director of Content Spencer Martin and Pacers Director of Esports Cody Parrent, who have helmed the team since its inception. The Pacers have been particular standouts this offseason in terms of content, posting impressive numbers on YouTube and surpassing 32,000 followers on the platform.

Pacers Gaming made the playoffs for the first time last season, securing the sixth seed before falling to eventual runners-up 76ers GC in the first round. In the offseason, the team dealt Ramo back to Pistons GT for the No. 4 overall pick in the 2020 NBA 2K League Entry draft before dealing its own No. 16 pick to Nets GC for season one Finals MVP NateKahl. Inaugural entry-draft picks Wolf and Swizurk were protected after the season; the team has three picks in the entry draft.
