NBA 2K25 Cover Athletes - Jayson Tatum, A'ja Wilson and Vince Carter

After the leaks came through early this morning, 2K revealed all of the cover athletes for the various editions of NBA 2K25. The Standard Edition will feature Jayson Tatum on the cover and A’ja Wilson will be on the GameStop exclusive WNBA Edition cover. Both players will share the All-Star Edition cover and Vince Carter will grace the cover of the Hall of Fame Edition.

“It’s an honor to be named a cover athlete for NBA 2K25,” said Jayson Tatum. “I’ve been playing NBA 2K since I was a kid and it’s been a dream to one day be on the cover. Even after coming off an NBA Championship, it’s humbling to see this come to life.”

“Being featured on the NBA 2K25 cover is a big moment for me and a testament to the ever-growing fandom of the WNBA,” said A’ja Wilson. “Seeing more and more WNBA athletes scanned into NBA 2K25 to best capture the style and confidence of the league has been empowering, and I can’t wait for fans to experience it in-game.”

“Between the honors NBA 2K and the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame have bestowed upon me, this year is an unforgettable one, making me pause with gratitude at my career,” said Vince Carter. “Being named a cover athlete would have always been a special moment for me, but it is a particular honor to be on the cover of the NBA 2K25 Hall of Fame Edition.”
