Am I the only one who thinks that 2K17 Joel Embiid looks like Justise Winslow?

Wow Simmons is rated 79?!? Guy can't shoot to save his life, his other stats must be nearly-elite...

All Star, All NBA third team, lead the league in rebounds. He's still raw but I think his rating is fair.

16 ppg 15 rpg is pretty darn good.

he was a 76-76 in 2k15, same for 16, and same for 17. can't really change his rating if he never played. all they know is that he was a beast in college and top 5 picks are usually in the 75-80 area

In 2k 88 means you are an established star. I can understand if they gave him that rating at the end of the year but no way he deserves it in the beginning especially since 2k usually only boosts the good second year players to about 83 in the beginning and increase/decrease it slowly as the season goes on

This is one game I wish I knew how to play. Haven't had a basketball game for years now, and these controls seem impossible to master.

Does anyone think they'll have better gameplay this year, IMO the ISO motion "flicking" for hesis was trash. It needs a lot of refining and a lot of animations need to go, 2k stop playing Fifa did the same thing. Fifa 2015 was perfect and took a step back

People who win online don't master the game, they cheese and exploit glitches.

NBA 2K used to have amazing graphics, what happened? These look like wax figures which used to be NBA Live's problem

Can say this about every rookie that they rate every year.

88 as a 2nd year player means he'll eclipse Steph Curry & Durant in 1 season.Young players make huge jumps in overall rating every season, and last season Steph started the season at 92 and Durant at 91.

Not realistic IMO, even for KAT fans.

But then again last year they started the season with Anthony Davis at 92. So who knows.

1. KAT isn't just some good second year player. He was amazing as rookie. Received All NBA votes. Swept the rookie awards.

2. Even last year he ended the season rated 86.
