This makes him the hero of the team

The basketball player Mikkal Bridges is 1.98 m tall and plays for the Brookyln Nets in the NBA. He owns a portable PlayStation 5 that travels with him in a suitcase to away games. Apparently he is popular with his teammates thanks to the portable PS5. This is the only way you can easily play NFL Madden on the go in any hotel room. But why doesn’t he just take a Steam Deck with him?

Who is this?

  • Bridges is 27 years old and plays shooting guard/small forward for the Brookyln Nets. He has been a starter since 2020, first for Phoenix and since February 2023 for Brooklyn.
  • With an average of 26 points and a strong shooting rate from the field and from the free throw line, he is an important scorer for the Nets.
  • But his sporting year ended early in 2023. The first round of the playoffs was already over against the Philadelphia 76ers.

    Portable PS5 – just plug in a cable and lol

    This is his gaming pride: In a video on TikTok, Bridges shows off his portable PS5:

    The NBA player shows a suitcase containing the PlayStation 5, with a monitor inside the lid and controllers. Setting up the game system is incredibly easy; you just have to plug a single cable into the wall, switch it on and you can get started straight away

    “My boys and I play a lot of Madden. Having this thing with me on the go is something I really need. My teammates – everyone in the league is excited to play the game. That makes it easier for us to travel.”

    How much does the portable PS5 cost? According to information from TheVerge, the construction will cost over $1,000.

    “Why not just use a Steam Deck?”

    What is the discussion? Two things are being discussed.

    Some say, “Just get a Steam Deck”; but that probably wouldn’t be a good option for playing NFL Madden, an annual football simulation from EA that has been released since 1988. Madden is generally considered a console game, especially if you want to play it with several people on one device.

    The other thing is the irony that US basketball players seem to be crazy about a football game and not “NBA 2k Live” where they could play themselves, but Madden is simply an institution in the USA that many grew up with.
