While the Brooklyn Nets are hoping free agent TJ Warren will be able to rediscover his Orlando bubble form, recently a writer predicted that Warren’s NBA 2K23 rating will take a deep dive from years past.
NBA writer Andy Bailey of Bleacher Report writes that his ratings dive is caused by only appearing in four games all last season.
“That he maintained a rating in the 80s is either an indictment on the developers or an awful lot of faith in his bubble run and nearly two-year-long injury recovery. In six bubble games prior to the 2020 playoffs, Warren averaged 31.0 points and 3.7 threes while shooting 57.8 percent from the field and 52.4 percent from three. It was a heck of a run, but it probably doesn’t warrant his staying power at 82,” wrote Bailey. “At this point, there’s really no way to know what kind of player Warren is. And it’s fair to wonder if the kind of foot injuries that could cause him to miss this much time could have a long-term effect on him. With an offseason to dive into all the ratings, the developers will surely catch this one and slide him down to the 70s.”
