Looks Like Paul George is the Cover Athlete for NBA 2K17, Olympic Teams in This Year?


PlayStation.Blog posted an image of the NBA 2K17 cover athlete on their PlayStation Store update page (which has been taken down already). We managed to grab a screenshot, before it was removed.

While no official news will be revealed until tomorrow, during the Road To The Finals championship game, it looks like a good bet Paul George is the man. There could also be multiple cover athletes, so we will just have to wait and see.

Announced in April, Kobe Bryant is the cover athlete for the Legend Edition of NBA 2K17, check out those details here.

Let us know your thoughts!

As noted in the comments, Paul George is wearing the Team USA jersey in the background, possibly hinting at the Olympics being involved in the game this year.

Platform: PC / PS3 / PS4 / Xbox 360 / Xbox One

Who is on the cover doesn't matter to me at all, but I will say that this is an unexpected choice.

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

I hope they're replacing Euroleague teams with Olympic teams. I hope there's no more "Be The Story" and I can make a Canadian born player to play for Team Canada in MyCareer. That's all if the Olympics is actually going to be in the game though lol.
