It's just not apparent in his overall 2K23 or defense Nba 2k23 mt per-perimeter rating. The overall rating didn't improve from 2K22 - it stood at 83. His perimeter defense rating is an 82 (A-minus), which is second in the league behind Chris Paul's 90. For someone who finished second in the Defensive Players of the Year last year, both of those ratings should be higher.

Moving on to one of the most underrated players in the NBA, Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kenrich Williams is next on the list for two different reasons. One is the perimeter defense in which the 27-year-old has gained his name in Oklahoma. He's extremely aggressive, hard to beat when it comes to attacking and is a formidable player in one-on-one scenarios and generally better than he's credited for. He ranks ninth on the team's the defensive zone, which is behind players like Ty Jerome and Aleksej Poku?evski this shouldn't be the case.

However Williams is the 5th-highest 3-point percentage on the team despite being 10th in 3-point percentage last season. He was 33.9% with 0.8 is a game. Williams's stats aren't fully accurate, but the figure of 75 overall is a fair starting point (even the fact that it should actually be more like 77).

Russell Westbrook's homecoming with Russell Westbrook's homecoming season with the Los Angeles Lakers did not take as planned. He started 2K22 with an 86 overall but slowly declined following a defiant performance all through the campaign. His former MVP of the league is now 78 overall, third-highest on the team , and that's where finished on 2K22. You're not likely to hear many people argue that he's the same player he was in the year 2016. but it's rather harsh to bring him down to only 78 after a season. His shot IQ is 25. This is tied for the lowest in the game however it's not a huge surprise.

For the sake of comparison, players who were rated 78 overall are Patrick Beverley, Westbrook's new teammate, Cole Anthony, Jakob Poeltl and rookies Paolo Banchero and Jabari Smith Jr. Isn't it obvious that Westbrook should've started off mt for sale 2k23 somewhere in the 80-83 range? This isn't really an insult, but more of a "How does he keep getting praise?"
