NBA Elite 11 Cover Player is Kevin Durant

[Andrew]

EA just posted a Tweet confirming it. Picked it back in April.



Good choice I reckon, obviously 2K got in first with the huge announcement that MJ would be on their cover but Durant's stock is rising and in terms of "star power", he's a much better choice than Brandon Jennings at this time.

it's gotta be posted sooner or later



Nice choice though

[Martti.]

Durant had and will have a killer season so a great choice, although a bit disappointed it's not Jennings. But I guess his time will come.

Maybe if Jennings has a better season this season he can be on the cover of Elite 12!

[Andrew]

I think there'll probably still be bigger names that they'll go after next year but if he establishes himself as a star in the league, who knows?

[Axel The Great]

More 55 point games will do the trick!

[Andrew]

It wouldn't hurt.

Durant is a great choice. Young up and coming superstar. can't go wrong with KD.

[kevin02]

Great choice! I really think Durant is already one of the top players in the NBA.

Much better choice than Jennings. Guess we don't pay enough attention to the official ea forums, since Tyreke Evans, Stephen Curry, and Brandon Jennings all went to EA Canada.

Gotta hand it to them, they did a pretty good job of taking the piss.

[Murat]

The cover is great... Nice choice.

Should have went the Madden 10 route and went Durant and Jennings.
