2K Sports All-Star Tour

The 2011-2012 2K Sports All-Star Tour is a basketball videogame tour sponsored by 2K Sports, distributor of the NBA 2K series, that was organized in response to the ongoing 2011-12 NBA lockout. Although the tour hits cities that have or have had an NBA team, the tour is not endorsed by the NBA itself. The tour started on Thursday, October 27th, 2011, at the ORACLE Arena in Oakland, California, with the Visual Concepts team beating the 2K Sports team, 73-72, and then, because of the tentative agreement between the NBA and the players' union, the tour ended on Christmas Eve - December 24th, 2011. As the lockout continued, more legs of the tour were added.

Eight teams play against each other in the 2K Sports All-Star Tour: the NBA 2K Team, the 2K Sports team, the Visual Concepts team, 2K China, and Team Jordan; along with three new teams - the Tampa Bay Firebirds, the Las Vegas Biohazards, and the St. Louis Bulldogs.
