His gamer tag is DRAKE GRIFFIN. Q. State your name and who you play for. AARON ROOKWOOD: My name is Aaron Rookwood, and I play for Bucks Gaming. Q. What propelled you from going casual into competitive? AARON ROOKWOOD: What propelled me from going to casual to competitive was just that I'm a competitive person, so I wanted to play against the best and just measure myself up against the best. Q. What's your go-to team in 2K? AARON ROOKWOOD: Oh, my go-to -- well, Cleveland. (Laughing.) Q. What's it like to be a part of a real NBA franchise? AARON ROOKWOOD: It's surreal. It's something I wanted to do always when I was younger and unfortunately I couldn't get it as the basketball player, but now I am some part -- in some way I am part of the NBA now, and it's just still surreal. Q. What's your favorite game other than 2K? AARON ROOKWOOD: Madden. Q. You good at that, too? AARON ROOKWOOD: Yeah, I'm good at that. Q. You this good at Madden? AARON ROOKWOOD: Not this good, but I'm good. Q. What was going through your head when you heard your name getting called? AARON ROOKWOOD: What was going through my head? I knew my name was going to get called; just didn't know when. It's still surreal -- just going from where I grew up at just on this big stage now. Just definitely a surreal moment. Q. Talk about the process, this whole experience. What has this felt like? AARON ROOKWOOD: The process was definitely a grind. It was fun moments. It was worrying moments about making it to this point. Doubting yourself. It was definitely a whole lot of mixed emotions, but it finally paid off just from playing, perfecting my craft, then to the combine playing in a whole new environment, playing with people I never played with before, and just being able to have a successful combine to put me in this position today.
