Today, NBA 2K20 launched on PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch, and while it’s too early to gauge fan’s thoughts on this year’s installment, there’s one thing that’s clear: they aren’t happy about the design of one of the league’s stars and best big men. More specifically, since launch much of the social media chatter among NBA 2K20 fans has been about Nikola Jokic and his sub-par design in the game. And what makes the shortcoming so glaring is that this isn’t some random player on the Memphis Grizzilies’ bench. Nikols Jokic is one of the best players in the league and one of the highest-rated players in NBA 2K20. Heck, he finished fourth last year in the NBA MVP race. In other words, you’d think his design would be flawless, but fans aren’t impressed.

For those that don’t know: Jokic is the Denver Nuggets’ star center hailing from Serbia. The young 6’10 center has been in the league for a few years now, but last year was undoubtedly his breakout year. And given that he’s one of the best big men in the game means he’s a popular player to have. Yet, it seems 2K maybe cut a corner or two on his design.
FIX JOKIC IMMEDIATELY @NBA2K https://t.co/pFohISop3C
