Nikola Jokic taking the podium, outnumbering the likes of Lebron James, isn't shocking. In many ways, Lebron's overall is an achievement in itself, considering his age. It showcases his abilities at a time when many wondered if he'll hang up his boots. An overall of 96 is no mean feat, and he will again be a force to reckon with.
Similarly, Jokic taking the top spot is entirely justified. After finishing as season MVP twice, Joker was beaten to the position by Embid. However, he managed to lead Denver all the way to the coveted championship, and his rating is an accreditation of his performances.
NBA 2K24's WNBA cover athlete Sabrina Ionescu's overall has also been revealed, and she has entered the elite club with a first-time rating of 90.
