NBA 2K24 released its gameplay trailer for this year’s iteration of the popular video game, and one clip set the internet ablaze.
The 101-second trailer features clips of some of the NBA’s biggest stars doing their signature moves, from Stephen Curry’s remarkable fadeaway threes to Jimmy Butler’s hilarious celebrations and everything in between.
But one featured move caught everyone’s attention: A Jordan Poole iso against, you guessed it, Draymond Green. The trailer shows Poole in his new Wizards uniform gesturing for a clearout before firing a deep stepback jumper.
Here’s a look at the clip:

Poole and Green’s beef has been well-known ever since Green punched Poole during preseason practice ahead of the 2022–23 season. And with Poole eventually being shipped out to the Wizards in the trade that netted the Warriors Chris Paul, fans have been waiting for the first matchup between the two teams next season. That’s why the inclusion of that clip in the 2K trailer has social media buzzing.
