NBA Live 16 is the latest installment in basketball franchise, featuring a physics-based player movement system giving you unparalleled control and best-in-class animation.

EA announced that Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook will be the cover athlete for NBA LIVE 16.

Westbrook is a decorated NBA star and one of the most versatile and explosive players in the league, demonstrated by his 11 triple-doubles this season, seven more than the next closest player. Westbrook is a four-time All-Star, and was named the 2015 All-Star Game MVP. He was also the NBA Scoring Champion after the 2014 season, and has won two gold medals as part of the US National Team, once during the 2010 FIBA World Championship and again in the 2012 Olympics.

“Russell Westbrook is a player who can do it all, and we can’t imagine a better fit for the cover of NBA Live 16,” said EA Sports VP of Marketing Anthony Stevenson. “NBA Live 16 is all about self-expression, and who better embodies that than Westbrook, both on and off the court? Russell plays every game like he has something to prove.  Our team is building NBA Live the exact same way, so we’re thrilled to have him as an ambassador for our game.”

EA Sports will announce the first gameplay details of NBA Live 16 next week at E3, and fans are encouraged to tune into the official EA press briefing on Monday, June 15 at 1:00pm PT for live announcements regarding this year’s game. Show attendees will also be able to stop by the EA booth to get their hands on NBA Live 16 for themselves for the very first time.

NBA Live 16 will be available for $59.99.
