JB's 2K23 (PS5) Fictional Draft Classes

[jeb4056]

With the game dropping tonight I wanted to let everyone know that I'll be doing draft classes again this year.

If you used my draft classes in the past you already know what to expect. If not, here's a brief overview...

I've done research on the last 10 to 15 NBA drafts to gauge how many elite players, star players, fringe stars, starters, role players, bench players should be in each draft class and will have the draft classes that I do be similar to those. I've also looked at the amount of upper and lower classmen that enter the draft each year, along with International players and will incorporate that into the draft classes as well.

Drafts will include gems, busts, and sleepers. I'll incorporate this by using the Boom/Bust feature along with the Peak Start/peak end - and potential.

If the boom/bust feature works like it did on PS5 for 2K22 I will be able to use more creativity in the draft classes. For example, you might see a player that's projected to be a mid to late first round pick with a B- potential, but he could have a BOOM potential of 90+ and become an elite player. This will allow me to replicate those star players that get drafted outside of the lottery (don't worry there won't be too many).

The plan for this year is to put out 8 to 10 draft classes--I already have them planned out. I'll just be doing the scouting reports again this year (no season updates).

Game plays so well this season. If they don't screw it up in the next couple of patches I can't wait to see how you and Jeffruels classes look.

I'm ready for these as always.
They made editing a bit easier too.
Do you have a link for donations? I use yours and Jeffruels every year I buy 2K, feeds bad not chipping in something for a coffee or something

Even though I play on an opposite console, I always look forward to your scouting reports, as well as Jeff's. Helps get the creative juices flowing. Wish we had cross platform content sharing, so we can use each other's work lbs

Can you imagine how quickly ATD would get popped out with cross sharing, how many draft classes would be available, etc.. Would be incredible. Throw that in with carry over saves and my wish list would be met.

Yea I agree, I spend 70 bucks on this game and both your classes and Jeffruels make the game far more enjoyable and balanced. I'd be willing to pay something as well.
