LeBron James. Dwight Howard. Kobe Bryant. What do they all have in common?
They won’t be appearing as the cover athlete on 2KSports NBA 2k11 basketball game.
That honor apparently belongs to Michael Jordan. Yes, that Michael Jordan. Lets make some history, shall we?
…multiple sources have told ESPN that the company has gone in a completely different direction, signing basketball legend Michael Jordan as its new spokesman.
This will be the first time that a former player will appear on the front of the box for 2K, and with Jordan taking over majority ownership of the Charlotte Bobcats, it will also be the first time that a team owner will endorse the popular franchise.
In addition to acting as cover model for “NBA 2K11,” the speculation is that Jordan will also be digitized into a playable character. This means gamers will become the virtual MJ in hopes of reliving some of his trademark moments. (via ESPN)
