NBA 2K24 Gets One Last Player Rating Update Ahead of the Playoffs

04/18/2024 02:56 pm EDT

With the NBA Play-In Tournament nearing its end, it's almost time for the Playoffs proper to begin. The best time of the NBA calendar kicks off on April 20th, and the developers at Visual Concepts are getting in on the fun by dropping the final player ratings update of the regular season into NBA 2K24. As you'd expect, it's mostly players from Playoff-bound teams getting boosts, but there are plenty of upgrades to go around. The biggest boost goes to Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Not only does the star guard have his young team sitting pretty as the number-one seed in the West, but he's made a serious run for the MVP award. To reflect his progression, NBA 2K24 has boosted SGA up to 97 OVR, making him one of the best players in the game.

New York Knicks fans will be happy to see Jalen Brunson get the respect he's earned with his blockbuster season. He's now rated 93 OVR, which could climb if he continues to perform. Meanwhile, former No. 1 overall pick Paolo Banchero has the Orlando Magic cooking, and 2K has boosted him to 88 OVR. The most notable drops come from Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis and Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell. Both players have dropped one point, bringing Sabonis down to 90 OVR and Mitchell to 92.

Below, you'll find the full list of changes in this latest player ratings update. NBA 2K24 is available now on PlayStation, Switch, Xbox, and PC platforms.
