While the game and its official player ratings at the start of the 2022-23 NBA season do not drop until Sept. 9, the creators of NBA 2K23 have leaked a number of team and player ratings, including the Boston Celtics, ahead of the game’s release.
Since it has become a September tradition to gripe about 2K ratings adjustments, we thought we’d share with you the ratings that have changed since the start of the summer to kick off your own Salty September. festivities, as we are dubbing it (feel free to give us better suggestions).
Let’s take a look at which player’s ratings have changed, and in which direction.
