NBA 2K26: Top Players Who Are Overrated in the Game

LeBron James

Even though it goes without saying that King James is one of the best players to ever set foot on the court, his high rating of 94 still comes with a little skepticism for some people. The reason behind this is that, at the age of 40, his aging has contributed to a slight decline in his performance on the court.

Damian Lillard

Rated at 88 OVR, Lillard is a top-tier scorer without any doubt. However, his low stamina and his performance during the playoffs are believed to warrant a more modest overall rating.

Julius Randle

Randle is rated at 86 in NBA 2K26. The only reason why his rating is considered not fair is the lack of consistency. His performance during his down periods makes his rating a little debatable.

Kristaps Porzingis

This NBA star flaunts an overall rating of 85. However, his frequent injuries result in low availability and impact in games. This is why his rating is believed to be unfair.

Steph Curry

Rated at a whopping 94, Curry’s performance has been on a decline from the last few seasons, leading to fans believing that he should have a lower rating in the game.

Zion Williamson

While Williamson does have great athleticism, his recurring injuries, defensive weaknesses lead to fans believing that he should have a lower rating than 87.

LaMelo Ball

Despite having exceptional playmaking skills, inconsistencies when it comes to shooting and defending are under-weighted in his stats in NBA 2K26.

Jalen Green

Green holds an 83 OVR rating in the game, which surpasses other NBA stars often compared to him, such as Deni Avdija, who has an 82.

Larry Nance Jr.

Playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Nance Jr. has not performed well, and his impact has been significantly lower than in the past few seasons. This is why his rating of 74 feels overrated.
