Final Celebrity DLC for WWE 2K25 Dunk & Destruction Pack Revealed: Jalen Brunson Enters the Ring
The curtain has dropped on the final celebrity addition to the highly anticipated WWE 2K25 Dunk & Destruction DLC pack. New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson was officially announced as the newest playable character in this crossover between the NBA and WWE video game worlds. The news broke today via WWE Games’ official social media channels, generating immediate buzz among both wrestling and basketball fans.
Jalen Brunson Crosses Over to WWE 2K25
WWE Games took to social media to unveil Brunson’s inclusion, posting, “From buckets to body slams, @jalenbrunson1 crosses over to the ring in #WWE2K25’s Dunk & Destruction Pack #NBA.” The announcement was paired with a video showcasing Brunson’s in-game entrance, quickly gaining traction and excitement across both communities. You can find the original post on WWE Games’ Twitter, where fans are already sharing their reactions and opinions.
Brunson isn’t a stranger to the WWE universe. Last summer, he made headlines during a WWE SmackDown broadcast at Madison Square Garden in a confrontation with Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton—a moment that foreshadowed their digital clash in the Dunk & Destruction pack. This playful rivalry comes at a perfect time: Haliburton’s Pacers were recently set to face Brunson and the Knicks in the NBA Eastern Conference Finals, underlining this celebrity crossover’s relevance and hype.
