Fans were challenged to predict who would appear on 2K Games’ promised final NBA 2K23 cover. Naturally, most ideas were from NBA players who were currently playing or had previously played, but 2K had completely different views. Hip-hop singer J. Cole, who receives his extraordinary Dreamer Edition, is this year’s last cover star.
Last night, NBA 2K23’s cover was hinted at by 2K Games as a tease for fans. Fans of the series had to make educated guesses to identify the new cover athlete because there was hardly little to go on. Names like Ja Morant, the current NBA Most Improved Player, LeBron James, who has been the league’s face for the past ten years, and the recently deceased superstar Bill Russell were all mentioned.
2K was engaged in a chess game while everyone else was involved in a game of checkers. The news that J. Cole would be on the cover of the NBA 2K23 Dreamer Edition was a surprise that few anticipated, but most people welcomed. Additionally, it’s not just because of the cover’s stunning aesthetics. There are also exciting gameplay announcements on the Dreamer Edition cover.
Beyond just the game’s packaging, J. Cole is involved in NBA 2K23. Along with his bandmates from Dreamville, Elite, and Bas, he will play a crucial role in the new MyCAREER storyline. In a clip released along with the introduction of the Dreamer Edition cover, it is clear that Cole, Elite, and Bas will be crucial to your player’s off-court activities.
With music, fashion, and business playing significant roles in the MyCAREER tale, 2K promises to focus more on the off-court growth of your character than ever before. So now it makes sense why J. Cole was selected for the in-game companion part. Unfortunately, men that fall into all these characteristics and are average basketball players are scarce.
