Oklahoma City Thunder mega-superstar Kevin Durant--whom just earned himself the 2014 NBA Most Valuable Player title--has been announced as the cover athlete for NBA 2K15.
“I’m honored to be selected for the cover of NBA 2K,” said Durant, who is currently leading the Oklahoma City Thunder against Los Angeles Clippers during this year’s NBA Playoffs. “I’ve been an avid fan and player of NBA 2Ksince I was a kid, and being selected as the sole cover athlete of NBA 2K15is an amazing accomplishment at this point of my life. I feel like my time has come.”
“We’re continually challenging ourselves to align the NBA 2K franchise with the best of this generation, and Kevin Durant brings one of the NBA’s greatest into our stable of kings,” said Alfie Brody, Vice President of Marketing for 2K. “Our goal is to consistently bring an unmatched experience for the millions of fans that play the NBA 2K series, while paralleling the NBA’s evolution and growth year-over-year.”
No one deserves the title this year more than Durant--not even LeBron. Durant went on a 41-game streak in which he scored 25 or more points in each game he played, averaging 34.8 points per game during that span.
NBA 2K15 is also now available for pre-order for the PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
