$250 million for this stick man, Olive Oyl ass nikka is unbelievable

Edit: $250 million with incentives he ain't hitting those

 

[Primetime]

Prior to May-June aka sweeping all the awards, he was 9th in jersey sales and the 7th most popular player on social media.

Add mvp, finals mvp, title... plus both the 2k cover and Starting 5 on Netflix going into next season, and ofc marquee opening night and xmas games (prob any 2 of DEN, NYK, LAL), he's gonna have a spike up of exposure in the next 365. Good for him

They don’t even put any effort into the cover art anymore. Just slap a cut out of the players on a blurred background.

Shoutout to Angel Reese and Carmelo Anthony

I get the SGA love hell even understand the angel reese WNBA cover but why the hell is Melo on the Superstar edition?

What the hell would his Career Mode even be like?

Score 50 points in Denver five times then score 50 at the Garden five times?

pretty much all his accomplishments.....

Dont me I dont know how the career mode thing works but how the fukk does Melo get a NBA 2k cover before the Great Timothy Theodore Duncan?

Now if you telling me that if you been on NBA Live cover then you cant be on NBA 2k cover then fine but I dont think thats true so once again why is Melo getting any love before Duncan?!?!???

 

[Nabs]

Al Horford and Luke Kornet also made the cover

Has SGA's popularity grown now or is he still just a guy to most fans?
