The Phoenix Suns are taking their games to NBA 2K.
With the NBA suspending the 2019-20 season for at least 30 days due to the coronavirus outbreak, the Suns announced plans to continue playing out their schedule on NBA 2K. The games will be streamed live on Twitch beginning with the Suns' March 14 matchup against the Dallas Mavericks.
The season isn’t over yet...

It's unclear if the Suns' games will be simulated or if people - or players - will be playing.
