On the other hand Williams is the 5th-highest

However, that's not reflected in his overall or perimeter defense rating. His overall rating didn't improve from 2K22 - it was at Nba 2k23 mt 83. His perimeter defense rating is 82 (A-minus) and is second on the team behind Chris Paul's 90. If he was a second-place finisher in Defensive Player of The Year voting last year Both of those numbers should be higher.

Moving to one of the best players not rated in the NBA, Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kenrich Williams is next on the list for two different reasons. One is his perimeter defense, which is where the 27 year-old has built a reputation in Oklahoma. He's aggressive, tough to beat in the line of attack and has a great one-on-one game and, in general, much more effective than he's credited for. He's in the ninth spot on the team's perimeter defense behind players like Ty Jerome and Aleksej Poku?evski and Ty Jerome, something that shouldn't be happening.

On the other hand Williams is the 5th-highest 3-point rating on the team, despite ranking 10th in 3-point percentage in the last season at 33.9 percent. 0.8 points per game. Williams's profile is not totally accurate, but his 75 overall is a fair starting point (even though it should not be 75. but 77).

Russell Westbrook's homecoming with his team the Los Angeles Lakers did not be as expected. He began 2K22 with an 85 overall, but gradually dipped following a bizarre performance throughout the season. His former MVP of the league is at 78 overall and is third in the league and where finished on 2K22. There's not much to argue about whether he's still the player he once was back in the year 2016. but it's quite unfair to reduce him up to just 78 after a season. His shot IQ is 25. which is the lowest score in the league, but not exactly surprising.

For comparison's sake, other players rated 78 in total include Patrick Beverley, Westbrook's new teammate, Cole Anthony, Jakob Poeltl and rookies Paolo Banchero and Jabari Smith Jr Buy Nba 2k23 mt. It's not surprising that Westbrook could have been rated somewhere between 80 and 83? This one isn't exactly an admission of fault, but more of an "How is it that he keeps getting high marks?"
