Hendrix was working at a steak house in Arkansas before joining the Raptors gaming team. 

The Toronto esports team reclaimed Seanquai (KingQuai614) Harris and Joshua (TsJosh) McKenna in the March NBA 2K League draft in Brooklyn, N.Y.

“Trey is an outstanding perimeter shooter that can also drive the ball and score from the paint,” Cavs Legion GM Anthony Muraco said in a statement. “Above that, he is a great teammate and a vocal leader who we’ve always respected from afar. His leadership skills, along with his ability to score from anywhere on the floor, will be a welcome addition to our team.”

Cavs Legion (3-3) are 11th in the NBA 2K League standings, two spots above Raptors Uprising (2-3).
