So I am a freelance 3D modeler and one of the cooler gigs I have had in a while was working on the NBA 2K16 trailer. I had to sit on this one for about 6 months now but I just saw that it was on youtube and wanted to share.
A buddy of mine had to drop out of the project so I came in a wrapped up work on all of the characters as well as modeling all of the rocky/debris portions of the environment (one of my boulders sets a pick on Curry ). And I got to make the end-stage (including the giant Bulls throne that Jordan sits on!) where the my career player goes up against Jordan, Harden, Curry and Davis.
It was awesome to work on a game cinematic, let alone a game that I have played for damn near 20 years.
I hope you guys enjoy it. It isn't the most polished CG but it was a quick and fun gig that I really enjoyed. It was especially great to be on a small team and pitch ideas considering I was the only guy in the place that actually watches basketball and it was during the playoffs of all times.

P.S. Harden sucks on defense on purpose and Jordan was supposed to pin the layup on the glass (Mercer block) but the shot didn't have enough time.. The player had to retain the posession.

No way, that was you Mk0? Awesome stuff!
I saw some responses from people when this first became public, including Hardens defense But seriously, I loved the MJ part, so well done and great mood.
