That's awesome, props to them

As my avatar indicates I may or may not be a Baylor alum, so I'm way more excited by this than I typically would be

I added him to the Timberwolves from free agency for a test run, though, and he's invisible...

Ok... I'm going to be "that guy"... It's a big time move by 2ksports to include him into the game... But what would of been better is if he also came with a patch for us Xbox one user (and all other ps4 users outside US)... I'm just saying.

Shame on you. Just uninjure him in a custom roster if you want him that bad. This is something special.
