yeah i guess 2K have to wait until Kawhil make his own decision : re-sign with Raptors for max contract or leave to another team like Lakers, Clippers, New York Knicks

So nothing at the Awards, Draft, etc.

This is unprecedented to have NOTHING.

In fact, NBA2k's twitter account was tweeting about Giannis' MVP awards as the cover athlete. So they haven't even transitioned their messaging towards 2k20.

I find this VERY strange.

I think they are focusing on borderlands 3 now that why they didn't announce anything about NBA 2k20 yet

At the end of last weeks 2KTV, LD and Alexis Morgan said we'd be getting 2K20 news real soon. Could that possibly be tomorrow's episode?

Yep. Seems like they're ready to reveal it. Like I said, could be on tomorrows episode of 2KTV or some time next week.

I was just guessing 2KTV because their twitter page just retweeted that specific clip earlier today and new episodes come out on Fridays, so I was thinking they were just teasing it for tomorrow. We'll just have to wait and see, but it's around that time to start revealing stuff either way.
