Today, 2K announced the next NBA 2K26 Player Ratings regular season update, spotlighting three players who are leaving their mark on the league as the playoff push intensifies.
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren: 88 OVR (+1) is playing like a man possessed, averaging 25.5 points and 13.7 rebounds over the last two weeks following his first All-Star appearance. His dominance on both ends of the floor is one of the reasons the Pistons currently sit in control of the Eastern Conference.
Charlotte Hornets guard Kon Knueppel: 87 OVR (+2) has surged in the Rookie of the Year race, recently breaking the NBA rookie record for most three-pointers made in a single season. Over his last two weeks, he averaged 21.1 points and 5.3 rebounds.
Los Angeles Clippers forward Bennedict Mathurin: 82 OVR (+1) has flourished since his February trade, providing a major scoring spark with nearly 20 points per game in his new home. After navigating a crowded rotation in Indiana, Mathurin is now carving out a vital role as a consistent offensive threat for the Clippers.
