Let’s take a look at a few of the defining moments from the first day of week 11 of the NBA 2K League.

No Autographs starts with the ball on the inbound. He was steady all series when it came to his playmaking.
Initial misdirect and clear out from Bulleyy as soon as the ball is in play. Filling in for Fab at point guard, he had converted an and-1 layup during the previous possession, so the path he takes crossing No Autographs looks like a hand off at first and freezes Deedz and Hotshot for a split second.
Back to No Autographs, he’s got to make the read here hoping the Heat aren’t communicating on the simultaneous cuts (colloquially, a “fefe”) from Easy and Mel East.
Hotshot doesn’t follow Bulleyy, so No Autographs goes to the corner instead of the paint, and Easy is able to dramatically draw the foul for the win.

Play begins with JBM and Dayfri pick and roll. JBM quickly checks to see if the three opens up but then decides to go the basket. You could argue that he had room to go a hop step fade here, but it all happens really quickly, and JBM misses an early contested jumper.
Check out Choc frantically communicating to his team as soon as he realizes the shot is off and he’s off to the races.
Credit to ReeseDaGod who recognizes what’s happening and is actually initially ahead of Choc when the pass is thrown but is somehow unable to get his hands on the ball. Chalk up another dramatic win for Nets GC.

I want to see more of this JBM. The type to just risk it all without warning.
Newdini’s reputation as someone who makes game winning plays rears its head here. Great rebound which leads to the game winning three.
NBA2KLeague – Knicks Kings Game 2

With Bash having seven turnovers at this point, the Kings initiate the offense through Seemo. Great job by Duck and Rim to stay disciplined with their assignments. Sacramento has often caught teams sleeping on a Crush corner three or a Bash alley-oop from this set up.
Malik, who had come up huge for Knicks Gaming on the offensive side, pokes the ball away and this is when chaos ensues. All five Knicks realize there isn’t much time left and they converge in on Yusuf hoping he won’t gamble on Seemo being able to get the shot off in time from the corner.
