All-Star teams were updated with today's roster update.
https://twitter.com/Real2KInsider/st...00841088958464
All rating changes were logged from current-gen (PS4). Approximately 138 players w/ OVR changes, with 22 changing by 2 points or more ("Big Movers")
As with all 2K Overall Rating updates, it’s important to recognize that +1/-1s are mostly statistical fluctuation and can be traced to an increase/decrease in a player’s performance over the last two weeks. As an example,
Tristan Thompson is on his 6th OVR change of the season (he has been a +1/-1 in every single roster update).
Players with +/-2 or greater, or any badge changes, those are the true “movers” in an update. (There appear to be zero badge edits in this update).
Being mindful of where a player started and where they are today gives additional clarity to the otherwise mundane wall of text that is the “Official” 2K rating dump For example, a +1 for
Tyrese Haliburton in this update tells us only about his last two weeks and very little about his season’s journey - he is +9 since the season began and exceeding expectations throughout the year. Roster updates should be storytelling through numbers, rather than soulless digits on a page.
Archetype changes were provided to give fans additional context to which attributes were changed. Most commonly, this will relate to a player’s 3pt rating going above or below 80 (2K primarily focuses on shooting ratings in their bi-weekly updates). It is likewise important to note that player attributes change for ALL players even when their OVR doesn’t.
Nerlens Noel for example went from “Finisher” to “Rim Protector” in this update, but won’t be listed because his OVR rating did not change.
