The latest trailer for NBA 2K20 showed off the game’s MyTeam mode and made excessive use of some heavy-handed gambling imagery. Honestly, it’s a trailer only someone who’s been living in a cave the last two years could have produced. Despite the ongoing controversy and vitriol from the public towards “surprise mechanics”.
