Ryan Meegan, Co-founder of DUDE Products, said: “DUDE is really excited to partner with Mavs Gaming for the 2020 NBA 2K season. We’ve been looking to advertise in the esports market for a couple years now and thought what better way to initially promote our brand in the space than with Mark and the Mavs Gaming franchise. From our flagship product, DUDE Wipes, to our vast growing personal care product line, we feel DUDE has something to offer all gamers to help improve not only daily hygiene but also keeping gaming equipment clean.”

Esports Insider says: With its link to the traditional sports league, the NBA 2K League is a compelling option for brands looking to ease into esports – and the tie to famed entrepreneur Mark Cuban can’t hurt with Mavs Gaming, either.
