Overview

  • Visual Concepts published the full Top 100, capped by Jokić and Gilgeous-Alexander at 98 OVR, followed by Giannis Antetokounmpo at 97 and Luka Dončić and Anthony Edwards at 95.
  • The rest of the top tier includes Stephen Curry, LeBron James, Jayson Tatum and Victor Wembanyama at 94, with Kevin Durant at 93 to round out the top 10.
  • Heavy notes the Lakers are the only team with two top-10 players at launch, with Dončić (95) and James (94) both featured.
  • 2K detailed substantive MyGM/MyNBA changes, including offseason scenario goals, an Unranked MyGM option for full customization, MyPlayer DNA integration, and updated budgets and facility upgrades.
  • Ronnie 2K said 100 is impossible under the current formula and that 99 remains exceptional, while emphasizing launch ratings will be adjusted dynamically during the season, with early access starting August 29 and full release in early September.
