Gary Payton II: +7
Payton’s improved rating jumps out more than any others on the list. He must be doing something right to jump up 7 points. Payton is clearly not the player Ronnie 2K thought he was going to be.
Payton’s averages are not high for the Washington Wizards, but with his 22 minutes a game, it’s not much to work with. He is averaging 6.2 points, 4 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.8 steals per game for the Wizards. His current rating is 75 overall.
Garrison Mathews: +5
Mathews is a rookie, so not many knew what to expect. However, he’s proved himself enough that 2K decided to improve his rating by 5 points.
In his average of 13 minutes played per game for the Wizards, he is averaging 6.2 points and 1.5 rebounds per game. His current 2K rating is 72 overall.
