3 legends in Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird covered last year's NBA 2K12. This year 2K taps 3 young basketball greats in Kevin Durant, Blake Griffin, and Derrick Rose.

This year's scoring champ, Kevin Durant stated, "Being crowned as one of the NBA 2K13 cover athletes is a huge honor and something I always dreamt about."

Griffin, who helped lead the Clippers to their first postseason since 2006 had this to add, "There's so much young talent around the NBA, so it's very exciting to be chosen for NBA 2K's ‘New Dynasty' alongside Kevin and Derrick.”

Rose who was the 2010-11 NBA MVP said, "It's a dream come true... I've worked closely with 2K Sports since NBA 2K10, and I'm honored to follow in the footsteps of Michael Jordan as the latest Chicago Bull to be featured on the cover."
