WSU basketball fans can now play as their Raiders on the video game NBA 2K18. The roster creator known as Curtis, or by his gamer-tag Skillazkill, uploaded the roster for PS4 this past weekend.
While it may seem odd to play college basketball on an NBA game, it has been the norm for the past few years. With no college basketball video game currently on the market because of player compensation debates, creators like Curtis use 2K’s custom roster features to bring college hoops back to the virtual world.
This is the first season that WSU’s roster has been uploaded. It includes every WSU player with realistic physical features and performance ratings. It even included Ryan Custer on the roster, a gesture that was appreciated by many.
Along with the rosters, all three of the Raider’s uniforms are included, as well as a court that has The Nutter Center down to a tee.
Curtis is one of the most popular content creators in the 2K community. His content has received over half a million downloads in under five months. Along with WSU, he has created over 60 college basketball rosters that are available to download, including fellow Horizon League member UIC.
Easy directions on setting up the rosters can be found on his Operation Sports forum page. The setup takes approximately 20 minutes.
