Personal thoughts: It is very grounded style, no colourful backgrounds etc. Makes me wonder if this will also apply to the general theme of the game, specifically to the MyCareer mode. The Carter one is also low key one of the best covers in a while.
Definitely not the flashiest art style, but I don't mind it. It's also just a cover at the end of the day. Great choices across the board though, representing championship teams and a recent Hall of Fame inductee. Sometimes the cover players seemingly come out of left field, but those are some sensible picks.
