NBA 2K22 has released the player ratings of several NBA players. LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, and Giannis Antetokounmpo are rated 96, which is the highest rating. They are followed by Joel Embiid, Kawhi Leonard, and Nikola Jokic, who are rated 95 in the latest edition of NBA 2K. The ratings of every edition come with surprises and shocks. Many players have come out and complained publicly regarding their ratings. In NBA 2K22, reportedly DeMar DeRozan has been rated higher than the likes of Beal and Russell Westbrook. It is still unconfirmed, but it hasn’t stopped the fans from talking about the rumors.
San Antonio Spurs traded DeMar DeRozan in a sign-and-trade deal to Chicago Bulls. Thaddeus Young, Al-Farouq Aminu, a protected first-round draft pick, and two second-round draft picks went the other way as a part of the deal. Interestingly, just after signing with the Bulls, DeRozan has reportedly been rated 90 in NBA 2K22.

So Derozen is as good as Jayson Tatum… don’t get me wrong Derozen is a good player… but there’s no way Derozen and Tatum should both be a 90 overall.. if Derozen is 90.. then Tatum should be a 93 or 94.. do the people from 2k sports watch the nba playoffs?

He spent the majority of his NBA career with Toronto Raptors. However, after nine seasons with the Raptors, DeRozan signed for the Spurs. Last season, he played 61 regular-season games, starting all of them. He was an important member of the Spurs. Still, they decided to trade him to the Bulls ahead of the 2021-22 season.
