Warriors draft first woman player into NBA 2K esports league

After over three hours of sitting, waiting and stressing, Chiquita Evans heard her name called. Evans became the first woman ever drafted into the NBA 2K League on Tuesday night, going in the fourth round to Warriors Gaming, which is operated by the NBA's Golden State Warriors. A former college and semipro basketball player, Evans is now the esports league's first female pro, one of the 126 players who will make between $33,000 to $37,000 per season, plus benefits and team housing.
