Let’s take a look at which players saw the most significant improvement in their Overall Rating (OVR) following this latest update, as several of them did.

In NBA 2K25, LeBron James has been upgraded to a 96 Overall Rating. Since January 13th, he hasn’t scored fewer than 20 points in any game, which is quite remarkable for a player of his age (40 years old). Just like Tom Brady, LeBron James seems to be defying the effects of aging, demonstrating skills that place him among the top players in the league. Regardless of Anthony Davis’s presence, LeBron has consistently proven himself as a strong leader who can guide his team towards securing another playoff spot.

Anthony Edwards’ NBA 2K25 rating has been boosted to 93 following the latest update. This season, he’s averaging an impressive 26.6 points per game, which, if maintained, could surpass his career-best of 25.9 points. Known for his accurate shooting, exceptional passing abilities, and strong rebounding skills, the three-time All-Star consistently demonstrates why he’s among the elite in the NBA. The Timberwolves are on a five-match winning streak as they strive to recover from a rocky start to the season.

In NBA 2K25’s latest update, Damian Lillard has been rated as a 92 Overall (OVR) player. At 34 years old, this future Basketball Hall of Famer is averaging over 25 points per game this season. This veteran superstar synergizes exceptionally well with the athletic prodigy, Giannis Antetokounmpo, significantly increasing Milwaukee’s chances of reaching the Finals once more. As of now, the Bucks hold a record of 26 wins and 19 losses, placing them fourth in the Eastern Conference.
