NBA Jam Eastern Conference Rosters Revealed
With NBA Jam ready to drive into the paint October 5, EA Sports has finally revealed which big-headed NBA superstars we'll get to play as. Check out the Eastern Conference players after the jump.
ESPN hoops columnist Mark Stein revealed the list today, and we can't say there are a lot of surprises. As expected, NBA 2K11 cover athlete Michael Jordan isn't on the Bulls roster, which is disappointing. Other notable missing faces include Reggie Miller, Alonzo Mourning, and Joe Dumars. But in other news, Combat Basketball star Bill Laimbeer is back, as is Manute Bol, Larry Bird, the legendary Dr. J.
