The NBA 2K14 cover is the BIGGEST yet with LeBron James announced as the cover star. This is the first time in his decade-long career that LeBron, who played in Game #1 of the 2013 NBA finals last evening, will be the face of a video game.
For the campaign, Zambezi created a :30 TVC featuring LeBron James and Steve Kerr, which will run throughout the day today on ESPN's SportsCenter. Additionally, there is a one day ESPN.com / NBA.com takeover will include banners with the :30 spot and :15 pre-roll embedded throughout the day today.
