So, folks wanna know, huh? “Who is the lowest rated player in NBA 2K24?” Well, let me tell ya, this year in NBA 2K24, the lowest of the low ratings is sittin’ at a 67 overall. That’s right, just a 67 – not much higher than the bench’s end, y’know? Now, if we’re talkin’ specifics, the two fellas who got that score are none other than Jaden Hardy and Dwight Powell. Both play for the Dallas Mavericks, so they kinda get a rough start this season, ya see?
Now, last year, this Hardy boy was rated a little higher, ’round 73 overall. But seems like the game folks over at 2K didn’t see him jumpin’ much in skill, so they dropped him down some. Powell, bless his heart, well he’s been down in the lower end of them ratings for a while now, just stayin’ steady but not shinin’, y’know? These two are tied for the lowest-rated starters in the game. Ain’t a title they’d ask for, I’m sure, but that’s where they ended up.
And y’know, this low rating ain’t even close to the lowest in the game’s history. Heck, if you roll back to NBA 2K12, there was a player named Brian Scalabrine – they called him the “White Mamba,” funny enough – he got a rating of 40 overall! Ain’t that somethin’? Back then, folks really weren’t shy about handin’ out these low ratings. These days, even the benchwarmers are around the high 60s or low 70s, so a 67’s low for today but not like them old days.
Now, let’s get back to this 2K24 game for a second. Some folks are up in arms ’cause they say a few guys got a lower rating than they deserved. Like, there’s folks arguin’ that Jalen Williams, Bam Adebayo, and Rudy Gobert are sittin’ too low on the list. Fans say these players got the short end of the stick in the ratings, thinkin’ their skills on the real court deserved a little more respect in the game stats. Ain’t easy pleasin’ everybody, right?
Then you got some folks complainin’ about the game itself. They say NBA 2K24 feels kinda like a leftover soup from NBA 2K23. They’re talkin’ about not enough new features, plus how they didn’t bring crossplay to PC, meanin’ no next-gen options for PC folks. And boy, MyCareer mode just ain’t hit the mark this time. Gamers keep sayin’ there’s too many microtransactions, not to mention crashes and hackers. Ain’t the kind of game performance folks hoped for, I reckon.
Now, back to Hardy and Powell. These boys might have the lowest ratings this season, but who knows? Season’s just gettin’ started, and maybe they’ll surprise everybody. If they start makin’ some big plays, maybe next year they’ll scoot up in the rankings. But for now, the 67 rating is where they’re at. So if you’re playin’ the game and lookin’ to put in some real strong players, well, might be worth givin’ these fellas a few extra passes on the team selection screen, if y’know what I mean.
And there you have it, folks! The lowest-rated player? Well, it’s kinda two fellas this year, both from the Mavericks. But, hey, with the season ahead, who’s to say they won’t change that story by playin’ hard on the real court? Guess we’ll just have to wait ‘n see.
