Ben Simmons still king — just — as Aussie NBA 2K23 ratings revealed

Ahead of the highly anticipated release of NBA 2K23 this weekend, foxsports.com.au can reveal how Australia’s stars have been rated.

Three-time NBA All-Star Ben Simmons remains the nation’s top player. But Josh Giddey has closed the gap.

Despite sitting out the entire 2021-22 campaign, Simmons has been awarded an 83 rating, while Giddey has rocketed up to an 82-rated player in the game after a history-making rookie season with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Philadelphia 76ers’ Matisse Thybulle comes in as Australia’s third-best player with a 77-rating, while Joe Ingles (76), Josh Green (73), and Dyson Daniels (73) follow.

In somewhat of a surprise, Patty Mills, who led the Boomers to a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics, will be rated a 72 in the upcoming edition of the popular basketball video game.
