2K has confirmed that Indiana Pacers shooting guard/small forward Paul George has assumed cover star duties for NBA 2K17, or rather for the standard edition of the game. The Legendary Edition features now retired LA Lakers All-Star Kobe Bryant as its cover star. George, meanwhile, earns cover star status after a career best season scoring 23.1 points per game.
"I have been playing NBA 2K as long as I can remember, and to be honoured as cover athlete of NBA 2K17 is a blessing and vote of confidence that my hard work on and off the court has paid off," said George. "I'm excited to partner with 2K and hope to help take the franchise to the next level."
2K has also revealed an Early Tip-Off date for NBA 2K17 of 16th September. Anyone who pre-orders NBA 2K17 from participating retailers can get their copy of the game before anyone else, with in-game digital content including 50,000 in Virtual Currency, a MyTEAM Bundle with three MyTEAM packs (including guaranteed Paul George Free Agent card), and more besides.
