NBA 2K11 Michael Jordan Cover Revealed

2K Sports announced last month that Chicago Bulls great Michael Jordan would not only be featured on the cover of their upcoming NBA 2K11, but that he would also be playable in the game. Well, 2K still is ready to share the gameplay details just yet, however, they have revealed the cover, so I guess that’s something.

Not to make a too big a deal out of the reveal, 2K Sports vice president of marketing said in a press release, “This could possibly be the most highly anticipate cover art in the history of sports games and we think the image we came up with delivers on every front.”

To this end, Argent went on to say that fans “will be pleasantly surprised at how Jordan is actually used in game, as NBA 2K11 will pay homage to ‘His Airness’ in many ways.”

As for Jordan’s own feelings about returning to the virtual court, he said in the same release, “"It’s exciting to see it all come together. I am looking forward to seeing the final product, but my kids might have to give me some lessons."

Here is the full cover for your consideration:

So what do you think of the cover? Can you think of a better sports game box art?
