NEW YORK (AFP) — The NBA 2K League will add a team in Shanghai for the 2020 season, the eSports league’s first franchise outside of North America.
The NBA-affiliated league announced the addition on Thursday.
The Shanghai club will be operated by eSports organization Gen.G and will join 22 existing teams, all of which are operated by NBA franchises.
The 2K League, run by the NBA, partnered with internet giant Tencent to stream games in China for the first time in July.
The Shanghai team will train at Gen.G’s Los Angeles headquarters during the 2020 season.
