This appointment aims to drive the continued success of the NBA 2K League, which has thrived through the engagement of its community, including viewers, players, and teams passionate about NBA 2K. Perlmutter's strategic leadership is expected to contribute to the league's ongoing development.

The NBA 2K League Board of Directors, which Perlmutter will report to, includes key figures such as NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, NBA President of Global Partnerships Salvatore LaRocca, Chairman & CEO of Take-Two Interactive Strauss Zelnick, and Chief Operating Officer of 2K Games Phil Dixon.
