Like every year, a few weeks after the release of the famous video game simulation, NBA 2K unveils the first statistical developments of the stars of the league. Some see their great performances rewarded, while others, like Damian Lillard, fall heavily! Here are the 10 biggest developments to note.
To note that Russell Westbrook, despite its more than questionable start to the season, it only earned a statistical drop of -2, bringing it down to 84 overall.
Miles Bridges : 83 (+5)
The biggest surprise of the start of the season is in Charlotte, where Miles Bridges is placed as the boss of the Hornets. His 22.7 points, 7.7 rebounds and 3.7 assists on average allow him to obtain a rise of 5 units.
Harrison Barnes : 83 (+5)
More astonishing than the outbreak of Miles Bridges, the return to form of Harrison Barnes. With career-highs of 22.2 points, 9.6 rebounds, and 45.9% at 3 points, the 29-year-old winger shines on the Sacramento side.
Ja Morant: 89 (+4)
He is content to continue his monster progression, and mistreats the league in recent weeks. From the top of his 25.2 points, 5.6 rebounds and 7.1 assists, Ja Morant fully deserves his +4.
Dejounte Murray: 86 (+4)
In the discretion of San Antonio, Dejounte Murray may be living his season of the explosion. His impressive stats of 18.4 points, 8.1 rebounds, 8.2 assists and 2.1 steals also earned him a nice increase of 4 points.
OG Anunoby: 83 (+4)
If the Raptors have managed to string together five victories in recent days, they owe it in large part to OG Anunoby. Considered by some to be the new Kawhi in Toronto, the Nigerian winger shines with 20.6 points average this season, and gets a nice +4.
Malik Beasley : 77 (-3)
After a season and a half of excellent quality with the Timberwolves, Malik Beasley is going through much more difficult hours. Relegated to the bench, and with a big breakdown in skill (35.6% shooting), the 24-year-old rear only turns 10.9 points per game.
Reggie Jackson : 77 (-3)
If his averages of 16.8 points, 3.9 rebounds and 4.1 assists are close to those of his last playoffs, Reggie Jackson also shows a clear deficit of address. From there to converting his 37.3% shooting to a -3, it might be a bit hard.
Collin Sexton : 79 (-3)
After a summer plunged into exit rumors, Collin Sexton sees his stats plummet. So much so that his 16.8 points… and 1.9 assist give him a -3 over 2K22.
Michael Porter Jr. : 81 (-3)
Same age or almost, and same disappointment as Collin Sexton for Michael Porter Jr. With only 9.9 points per game, and an efficiency at half mast in the shoot, the talent of the Nuggets finds the performance… of his rookie season. Result: a -3 all in all logical.
Damian Lillard : 90 (-4)
The biggest downgrade is to the credit of Damian Lillard, including sad all-time records got the better of his magnificent 94 at the start of the season. However, it could be that the star point guard of the Blazers has started his season against the Lakers.
