We're officially less than a month away from NBA 2K22's launch, and 2K Sports has taken to revealing upcoming details around some of the sport's most talented athletes. For those of you who can't wait to see those in-game stats, 2K and developer Visual Concepts has just shared the official player ratings for professionals like Candace Parker, Steph Curry, and plenty of others.
Hopefully, your favorite didn't get the snub, but 2K22's ratings for 12 players across the NBA and WNBA are finally in. While we may have already had a peek at a few of these in previous footage of the next NBA 2K, there are still a few here that are new. Visual Concepts also noted it's celebrating 25 years of the WNBA, so it's including the organization's top five players. So far, we've got the ratings on:
- Kevin Durant (96)
- Steph Curry (96)
- Giannis Antetokounmpo (96)
- Nikola Jokić (95)
- Breanna Stewart (95)
- A’ja Wilson (94)
- Jonquel Jones (94)
- Luka Dončić (94)
- Candace Park (93)
- Brittney Griner (93)
- Khris Middleton (88)
- Jrue Holiday (85)
NBA 2K22's recent announcements aren't limited to just revealing player ratings, either. Last month, the game revealed the athletes that the series would pay tribute to on its cover this year. Legends like Kevin Durant, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Dirk Nowitzk will celebrate the NBA's 75th anniversary. Visual Concepts will also release a special version of the standard edition in North America to highlight WNBA champion Candace Parker, while copies in Japan will feature the first Japanese player in the NBA playoffs, Rui Hachimura.
