NBA 2K posts updated 2K26 player ratings ahead of All-Star Weekend

NBA 2K posted a short Instagram announcement and images urging players to "Check out the updated 2K Ratings for these players ahead of NBA All‑Star Weekend!" The publisher characterized the release as a "fresh small batch of player rating adjustments" ahead of All-Star Weekend, signaling a limited midseason re-evaluation rather than a full roster re-rating.

Hoopshype published a snapshot labeled "NBA 2K26 Player Ratings" that captures the top portion of the updated list. The table shows Nikola Jokic and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander tied at T1 with ratings of 98, Giannis Antetokounmpo at 3 with 97, Anthony Edwards and Luka Doncic tied at T4 with 95, and a group of players tied at T6 with 94 that includes Jayson Tatum, LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and Victor Wembanyama. The capture continues with T10 entries Anthony Davis, Donovan Mitchell, Jalen Brunson, Kevin Durant, and Tyrese Haliburton at 93; T15 entries Cade Cunningham, Joel Embiid, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Kawhi Leonard at 92; T19 entries Devin Booker and Ja Morant at 91; and 21 - Jalen Williams at 90.

The Hoopshype capture is explicitly truncated after Jalen Williams 21 - 90 and contains multiple "Advertisement" markers and blank table rows, including a visible fragment that reads "[...] Advertisement - scroll for more content." That truncation means the provided capture does not include the full ratings database or any lower-ranked players beyond the top 21 shown in this excerpt. The Instagram post that prompted the update is dated 2026-02-12 in the materials provided; no full 2K patch notes or an expanded official list were included in the source documents.

Hoopshype presents its ratings snapshot alongside a reader feedback line: "See something that should be updated? Contact us at hoopshype@hoopshype.com" Readers who spot discrepancies in the captured list can use that address to flag errors or omissions on Hoopshype's page. Because the materials here do not include in-game patch notes or a complete 2K release, players seeking confirmation should check the in-game ratings screen or official 2K channels for a full, authoritative list and for details on whether the adjustments are temporary All-Star boosts or permanent changes.
