It's just an off-screen image posted by YouTuber Chris Denker aka DenkOps, but its concrete proof NBA Live 18 is indeed going to be released sometime later this year. The image below shows a profile shot of the Cleveland Cavaliers' LeBron James and the Boston Celtics' Avery Bradley is off in the distance, but you can tell it's him.


The clarity obviously isn't ideal, but there are a few things you can take away from the image.

LeBron is noticeably muscular, perhaps a little too hulkish. It's always tough to balance the render of a player like James. It's easy to see he's a larger guy than most in the NBA when it comes to muscle mass, but in a video game, how much is too much?

I'd have to see a side-by-side comparison to a string bean like Kevin Durant, and someone more in the middle like Kawhi Leonard before I could make a final judgment on the body structures.

The sweat engine is clearly working. Whether you're looking on the back of his neck, or along the left arm, the lighting effects that help depict the sweat looks authentic. You can't see the faces clearly, but from the angle in the image, James' render looks great.

This isn't surprising because, in NBA Live 16, EA Sports did a good job capturing the likenesses of the players they had access to before launch.

I am a little concerned with arm length and player hands. James' 7-foot wingspan doesn't appear to be long enough, and his hands look a little odd as well. Still, there's nothing here that would ki1l Live 18 with fans before it even starts.

All or some of the concerns I've shared could be squashed with the first live action look at the game. Hopefully, that's the case. It's been a long time since the Live series was a viable player in the virtual basketball world. Perhaps this release can restore some credibility.
