On 6/1, the road ends for either the Drewkerbockers or GFG… our #NBA2K17 cover athlete will be announced, locker codes, & much more! #RTTF

Back in April, a special Legend Edition of NBA 2K17 featuring Kobe Bryant on the cover was announced, along with its pre-order bonuses. I’ve also speculated on a few future cover players in a Friday Five column back in March, and I still feel that there’s a strong possibility that Stephen Curry will be on the cover for the second year in a row. It would certainly make sense, given the Golden State Warriors’ historic season, but we’ll have to wait until next week to find out. With 2K’s Tweet promising “much more”, I would also expect that some information about further pre-order bonuses will be revealed.
In the meantime, we have a few days to speculate. Who do you think will be appearing on the NBA 2K17 cover? Stephen Curry? The Warriors’ starting five? Perhaps Russell Westbrook will be jumping ship? Have your say in the comments section below, as well as in this thread in the Forum. Thanks to zzcoolj21 for the heads up!
