2K to Issue Updated NBA 2K18 Kyrie Irving Cover in Boston Celtics Uniform at a Later Date
Published on
2K will issue an updated NBA 2K18 cover, featuring Kyrie Irving in his newly acquired Boston Celtics gear. Unfortunately, the updated cover will ship at a later date, not specified. Senior vice president of basketball operations for 2K sent the official statement to GameInformer and Polygon.
We are excited to be part of one of the most memorable NBA offseasons in history with Kyrie, our 2K18 cover athlete, and Isaiah, one of the stars of our 2K roster, trading places. This isn’t an unprecedented event, a cover athlete being traded – but it’s certainly interesting timing with 2K18 being released in less than a month. The good news is that as the most authentic and realistic basketball game on the market, we’re used to being nimble and responding to changes in the NBA. Fans should be thrilled to know that we will issue a version of 2K18 featuring Kyrie in a Boston Celtics uniform at a later date.

I expect they'll offer a 'print your own' option.

Or if they'll update it later on.

I think we both know the answer to that already...

If I don't pre-order and wait a week to buy the game will the updated cover be out by then? With the game being 3 weeks away, I thought they might be able to get it updated before release.

EA had a Jets cover you could download from their website tho
Just saw this on ESPN, very interesting sounds like IT's physical didn't go over very well.
Was just going to post this if nobody else had yet. Hold off on reprinting those covers, 2k...
The Cleveland front office, as well as the entire league, already knew his hip was in bad shape - they're just angling for more assets.
Both teams.
As a Pacers fan.

Business as usual I don't buy the Lebron/Kyrie drama. Cleveland is done and now everybody looking for their exit plan. Lebron will be out so Kyrie needs to find his new contending home.
Well the Celtics camp claimed he was injured in the previous series and he aggravated it when he went up against Cleveland.
Don't usually care either but since he's my favorite player in the league I care now. :nocomprende:
I will never understand the paradox of not caring so much, that you care to let people know you don't care. It's so weird.
Anyway, I think it's dope. If that pic on the switch is legit, I'd be a little upset because I like the layup cover. I seen a really nice Photoshopped version of the original with just the jersey updated (I think in this thread?) that I like better though.

Human need to express individuality.
2K's photoshop looks a bit better than the one that was floating around to me. Cleaner, anyway.
