Deaaron Fox’s NBA 2K20 Rating is a Joke
Contents
Deaaron Fox’s NBA 2K20 rating is a joke. The young point guard out of Sacramento is one of the most exciting players in the league, and yet he’s been given a measly 78 rating.
Who is Deaaron Fox?
Deaaron Fox is a professional basketball player for the Sacramento Kings of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He was selected by the Kings with the fifth overall pick in the 2017 NBA draft. He played college basketball for the Kentucky Wildcats. Fox is known for his quickness, speed, and shooting ability. He was rated a 79 overall in NBA 2K20, which is a joke.
A brief overview of his career
Deaaron Fox was born in Philadelphia, on December 20, 1998. He is an American professional basketball player for the Sacramento Kings of the National Basketball Association (NBA). Fox played one season of college basketball for the Kentucky Wildcats before being drafted by the Kings in the first round of the 2017 NBA draft with the fifth overall pick.
In his rookie season, he was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team. Fox averaged 11.6 points, 4.4 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game during his rookie season, but struggled with his shooting accuracy, especially from three-point range. In his second season, Fox’s scoring and shooting percentages improved as he averaged 17.3 points and shot 43.8 percent from the field and 37 percent from three-point range. He was also named an NBA All-Star for the first time in his career.
His rating in NBA 2K20
NBA 2K20 is the latest in the NBA 2K series and it was released on September 6, 2019. Deaaron Fox is a shooting guard for the Sacramento Kings. In NBA 2K20, his shooting is graded as an 86, which is a huge drop from his shooting rating in NBA 2K19, which was a 96.
Why his rating is so low
The general public does not yet realize just how good De’Aaron Fox is. The point guard from the Sacramento Kings was rated an 80 overall in NBA 2K20, which was released on Friday. For reference, Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon is an 80 overall.
While it’s hard to put an exact number or percentage on how much better Fox is than Gordon, it’s safe to say that the Kings star is at least a few steps above the Rockets player. In fact, there are many people who believe that Fox should have been rated at least an 84 or 85 in NBA 2K20.
The problem here is that 2K doesn’t seem to have taken into account just how much better Fox has gotten over the past year. Last season, the young point guard averaged 17.3 points, 7.3 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game while shooting at a 44 percent clip from the field and a 32 percent mark from three-point range.
These numbers are very solid, but they don’t exactly jump off the page. However, when you look at what Fox did in the 2018-19 season, it’s easy to see why he deserved a better rating in NBA 2K20. That year, the then-21-year-old averaged 21.1 points, 6.4 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game while shooting at a 50 percent clip from the field and a 36 percent mark from three-point range.
Clearly, Fox took a big step forward last season and he deserved to be rewarded with a higher rating in NBA 2K20. Instead, he was given an 80 overall, which is quite disappointing.
How this will affect his career
Many experts and analysts have spoken out about how Deaaron Fox’s rating in the new NBA 2K20 game is a joke. His rating of 77 is not only lower than his ratings in previous years, but it is also much lower than other point guards in the league. This has led to some speculation about how this will affect his career.
Some experts believe that this low rating could motivate Fox to prove the doubters wrong and have a breakout season. Others believe that it could negatively impact his confidence and cause him to play worse than he is capable of. Regardless of what happens, Fox’s rating in NBA 2K20 is sure to be a topic of discussion all season long.
The reaction to his rating
2K gave fox a 73 overall just because he’s a rookie. players such as T.J. Warren and Daniel Theis (both 70) had better seasons than him and they are rated lower. People are outraged by this injustice and are demanding 2K to give Fox the rating he deserves.
Social media reaction
The star Kansas guard is the latest athlete to be downgraded in the popular video game series, and people are not happy about it.
Reactions on social media were swift and harsh, with many people calling for a boycott of the game.
Some users even went so far as to say that they would never buy another NBA 2K game again.
How his teammates have reacted
Leading up to the release of NBA 2K20, many players have been voicing their displeasure with their player ratings. One player who was particularly unhappy with his rating was Deaaron Fox of the Sacramento Kings.
Fox was given a rating of 79, which is considered to be below average for an NBA player. This didn’t sit well with Fox, who took to Twitter to voice his frustration.
Many of Fox’s teammates came to his defense, with some even calling out the rating system itself. Buddy Hield, who was given a rating of 86, said that the system “is a joke.”
“I don’t even think I’m that good,” Hield said. “There are a lot of guys in this league that are way better than me that don’t have my rating.”
Harrison Barnes echoed these sentiments, saying that he thinks Fox is “way better” than a 79.
“It doesn’t make sense,” Barnes said. “The whole thing is messed up.”
Fox himself has said that he isn’t too worried about his rating, and that he knows he still has improvements to make. However, it’s clear that his teammates believe he is better than his rating suggests.
What this means for the future
It was recently revealed that NBA 2K20’s highest-rated rookie is none other than Deaaron Fox. This comes as a surprise to many, as Fox had a relatively underwhelming rookie season. Nevertheless, 2K has given him a 86 overall rating. This means that, in the eyes of 2K, Fox is already one of the best players in the league. But what does this rating mean for the future?
Will he be able to bounce back?
The questions surrounding Deaaron Fox’s NBA 2K20 rating seemed to center on one thing – will he be able to bounce back? After a sub-par rookie season in which he was rated a 60, many were wondering if the 20-year-old point guard from Kentucky had what it takes to improve his game and live up to his potential.
In an interview with KyPREPS, Fox spoke about his motivation heading into the offseason and how he plans on using his 2K20 rating as fuel.
“It definitely adds a little motivation,” Fox said. “I’m not going to lie, it does. But at the end of the day, I know what I can do and I know what type of player I am. I’m just going to go out there and prove it.”
Fox has already begun putting in work for the upcoming season, working out with fellow NBA players like Jamal Murray and Derrick Rose. He also has a new head coach in Luke Walton, who seems confident that Fox can take his game to the next level.
“I think he’s going to have a really good year,” Walton told reporters earlier this month. “He’s worked extremely hard this summer.”
With a new coach and some added motivation, it seems like Deaaron Fox is in a good position to bounce back from his disappointing rookie season. If he can improve his play on the court, there’s no reason why he can’t achieve a higher rating in NBA 2K20.
How this will affect his 2K21 rating
This is a story that has been developing for weeks now. Deaaron Fox, who is considered one of the best young players in the NBA, was given a rating of 79 on NBA 2K20, one of the most popular basketball video games. This rating sparked a lot of controversy, as many people believed it was too low for a player of Fox’s caliber.
Now, it has been revealed that Fox’s 2K21 rating will be even lower, sitting at 77. This obviously means that 2K does not believe that Fox is progressing as a player and could be an indication that they think he has reached his ceiling.
This news will likely frustrate Fox and his fans, as they believe he is being underrated by 2K. It will be interesting to see how Fox responds on the court this season and if he can prove 2K wrong by taking his game to another level.
