Update: Meet Our NBA 2K Players Tournament Winner!
Massive congratulations to Michael Catala who won the 20K prize in our free-to-play NBA bracket promotion. Michael was the only person who successfully filled out a perfect, 16 player, single-elimination bracket for BetMGM’s NBA 2K Players Tournament, making his victory extra special! Michael has been actively working as a nurse during the COVID-19 period, and the deserving winner had this to say about his victory:
“I watched every game live, sometimes on my phone, throughout the entire tournament. I had a really good feeling about my bracket the whole time, until the finals came and there were 2 people in front of me. I thought for sure at least one of them also had Booker...”
No one else did, making Michael the winner, and when asked if Booker was one of his favorite players, Michael stated, “Certainly love the Phoenix Suns now and Booker, of course, that's for sure. Honestly, I'm still in shock! Thank you to all of BetMGM for the generous promotion.”
We’re glad to see the prize money go to a nurse on the front lines! We’ve matched Michael’s $20K winning with a $20K charitable donation to the New Jersey Pandemic Relief Fund.
You could be next! All you need to do is keep an eye on our site for more exciting promotions.
