One thought on “Indy hosts summer-long NBA 2K League esports season

  1. This is truly exciting for the city and Indy should definitely be jumping all over this. Indy has established itself as the amateur capital of the world, so anything to do with sports, Indy should have a hand in it. Indy should also go BIG with this while in its infancy stage before many other markets start to invest heavily into it. The city shouldn’t sit on the side and watch this grow and then try to play catch up. Wherever the new site will be located after it leaves PanAm Plaza, should be just as innovative and close to downtown as the current location. Good job Indy for thinking progressively and ahead of the pack.
