Always one of the most highly anticipated game releases among sports fans, the NBA 2K franchise dominates the NBA video game market. With the release of NBA 2K15 not until October 7, fans are anxiously awaiting. Fortunately for Lakers fans, the ratings of the team have leaked via YouTube video.
While it’s pretty hard to see, the ratings go as such:
Jeremy Lin – 77
Kobe Bryant – 89
Wesley Johnson – 73
Carlos Boozer – 78
Jordan Hill – 76
Nick Young – 78 (best guess considering glare)
Ed Davis – 73
Julius Randle – 76
Steve Nash – 76
Ryan Kelly – 71
Robert Sacre – 67
Jordan Clarkson – 70
Xavier Henry – 73
Honestly, that seems quite generous for the Lakers. Clearly, Bryant is far and away the best player on the team, which seems like a pretty accurate depiction. However, the rest of the team is rated between 79 and 67.
Most surprising? Wes Johnson at 73. That seems quite generous for a player that frustrated Lakers fans to no extent this year. While he’s a solid defender, he’s a below average offensive player, making the rating all the more confusing.
Julius Randle coming in at 76 is a pleasant surprise, but I do think Jordan Hill should be rated a bit higher. I think most fans can agree Randle and Hill are not on the same level.
Which rating surprised you most? Which do you agree with? Would you change any? Let us know down below!
