NBA Live 14 Reveals Athlete Lineup


EA Sports announced today it's roster of athletes for NBA Live 14. The squad includes cover athlete Kyrie Irving of the Cleveland Cavaliers and young stars Damian Lillard (Portland Trail Blazers), Ricky Rubio (Minnesota Timberwolves), John Wall (Washington Wizards), Kemba Walker (Charlotte Bobcats) and Victor Oladipo (Orlando Magic).

Each player was chosen because they embody the 'ethos' of Live 14: "Nothing but next".

Each player has been involved in motion capture in order to capture their unique signature moves as well as head scans, facial performance sessions, development consultation and more. EA plans to release videos of the players mentioned above leading up to and through the launch of Live 14 on November 19.

“The time, access and feedback these athletes have provided has been invaluable,” said NBA LIVE 14 Executive Producer Sean O’Brien. “We’ve been able to capture signature moves and unique styles through mocap sessions, and their willingness to provide open and honest feedback has helped us do so much more with the game in year one than we ever could have achieved without them.”

Read more on the athlete lineup and their role in the development of NBA Live 14.


Platform: PS4 / Xbox One

Ok nice work EA. Time to keep revealing more.

on a side note, nice detail in the second pic of oladipo dunking. Shoe marks on the floor look tight.

This is not a bad strategy by EA. They are almost like recruiting for future cover athletes by building relationships now. I also like the nice details on the floor. They didn't include one big man though? Now can we get some gameplay?

Finally, some heads besides Kyrie and Damien. Good likenesses, but expected since they're cyberscanned. Bodies still look marshmellowy and mediocre.

That's a huge delay for PS4.

Nice to see they already have the updated court (new key and baseline font/color) for Orlando...nice touches with the shoe marks and reflection of the scoreboard on the court, too.

The most hopeful part of all this was the Kyrie mo-capping video.

Let's see how well it translates though.
