What’s good everyone? Like I promised, I’m back on my blog to talk about that announcement I’m in New York City for.

Well, you might have heard by now that I’m on the cover of the new EA Sports video game NBA Elite 11!

Seeing myself on the cover of that game, I really can’t explain it any other way except for how much of a blessing it is. I’m truly, truly blessed.

I’ve been playing that game ever since I was eight or nine years old — and every year I’m excited to see who’s on the cover. I just can’t believe it’s me!

It‘s a good cover and a good game and I’m very thankful to EA Sports for putting me on this year’s cover. I’ve just got to go out there and continue to keep playing hard and hopefully good things continue to come my way. But like I said, I’m just very blessed and appreciative for this.

When I sit down to play this game you can bet I’m going to play with our team, the Thunder. I remember when I was on the March Madness ’08 cover, which was an EA Sports game, too. That was a dream come true back then. This is my second one and it hasn’t gotten old — it’s still a dream come true. Now that I’m on the biggest stage it’s just cooler. I’m excited to play it!

So make sure to go out and get yourself a copy of NBA Elite 11 when it drops in October. I’ll make sure to give you all the heads up when the demo drops. For now, go to NBAElite.com to find out everything EA is doing with the game.

Make sure to come back to my blog tomorrow, as I’ll give my thoughts on the NBA Finals and the NBA Draft.

THUNDER UP!

    Hey, You think maybe they chose you because you kicked Deron's butt on a video game, All Star Weekend. Deron is OK, I guess, but I am glad you made him eat a little crow.
