The former MVP has been somewhat overrated
Russell Westbrook was 2k23 mt given an ugly 78 overall rating on NBA 2K23. Russell Westbrook has the fourth-highest 2K23 ratings of the Los Angeles Lakers. Westbrook is clearly behind NBA superstars LeBron Jamees and Anthony Davis but he is in the same position as his teammate , Patrick Beverley. The folks over at 2K have given Patrick Beverley a 79 overall rating, which is probably suitable for where he's where he is in his playing career.
Westbrook was placed second behind Kendrick Nunn and is just barely higher than the likes of Thomas Bryant and Lonnie Walker IV. This is an enormous drop in the grace of Westbrook, but it is 100% justifiable. Westbrook fans will be horrified by this rating and will be quick to point to the box score of his team as the main reason his score should be around the mid-to-high 80s. Anyone who was able to watch Lakers basketball last season is aware of how misleading this box score is, though it is also how badly Westbrook performed last season.
The former MVP has been somewhat overrated when it comes to being a winning player (he has only won one playoff game since Kevin Durant left OKC) but there was never denying his athleticism and skills. It's not impossible to imagine that translates into 2K, even if it was not translated into winning basketball in the real world.
