James Harden had a season to remember last year. He finished with averages of 29.1 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 11.2 assists per game on his way to second in the MVP voting.
After his fantastic year, he gets the honor of being the NBA Live 18 Cover Athlete. While it seemed for awhile that Russell Westbrook would get the cover, the Beard swooped in and will be lining the shelves come sometime in September.
This honor makes it the second time that James Harden has graced the cover of a basketball video game.
