Players' ratings for the upcoming release of NBA 2K22 were released on Wednesday, and four superstars are tied for the game's highest overall rating. LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Steph Curry, and Kevin Durant all received a 96 overall rating for the game's debut, though James believes both Curry and Durant deserve a 99.

Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics has one of the best overall ratings in the league – but the recent gold medalist is dissatisfied with the rating he received.

Throughout the year, the NBA 2K team adjusts player ratings to reflect each player's current level of performance. After receiving his final 2K21 rating, Tatum expressed his belief that his base rating should be a 92 for the new year. He did not learn of his 2K22 rating until after the season ended. He was taken aback when he discovered that 2K had demoted him to a 90 overall rating for the launch of 2K22.
