NBA 2K23 couldn't be more wrong about how talented

Despite the fact that Michael Jordan graces the front cover MT 2K23, NBA 2K23 couldn't be more wrong about how talented these players from the current Chicago Bulls are. 2K has four current Bulls players ranked amongst the top 100 players on the field. DeRozan and LaVine occupy the 19th and 23rd spots respectively, while Nikola Vucevic is ranked No. 59, and Lonzo Ball is in at the No. 73. It's a bit of a surprise that Andre Drummond is rated as the fifth-best player from Chicago. He also barely missed the cut.

The team's rating as a whole is an absolute wreck. The Bulls backcourt is taking a big hit, as Alex Caruso, Coby White, and Dosunmu are all slashed one spot when the normal sense dictates that they should all be much better next year. Dosunmu's overall score of 76 is particularly egregious, as he just earned All-Rookie honors. Another rookie All-Rookie 2nd Team guard Josh Giddey posted roughly equal numbers with Dosunmu (and was heavily dominated by Ayo when it came to head-to-head games) as a starter but got a superior 82 overall rating.

Rookie Dalen Terry has also been assigned a ridiculous 71 overall score, which places Terry below the likes from former Bulls Matt Thomas, Denzel Valentine, Troy Brown Jr. , along with Tomas Satoransky. Three of them aren't even in an NBA roster while the fourth has just a minimum "prove you're a good player" contract. He'll join the other three in case he doesn't improve significantly.

I'm not expecting Terry to come out to ignite things in the near future, but putting Dalen in the middle of these players is pretty ridiculous, all things considered. As all things considered, 2K has rated the Chicago Bulls in "Tier 2" This means that they aren't among the top 10 league teams Buy NBA 2K MT. However, the Lakers are one of those 10 teams in Tier 1, in spite of how messy their roster construction is over the last two years.
