From the many star big men in the NBA, which stand the best odds of making the Top 10 NBA 2K24 Power Forwards Ratings? In the NBA, the power forward position has transformed into something special. With the increased usage of three-point shooting over the last five plus years, power forwards have become more than just masters of the paint and mid-range game, and consist of some of the most well-rounded players in the league.
The NBA 2K24 release date is still a month out, but fans have only grown more intrigued by all the various reveals that will be arriving over the next four plus weeks. And one of the most popular reveals for the community, belongs to the new player ratings, where fans get to behold all sorts of new Top 10s and more. But of all the power forwards in the NBA, who will find themselves in the Top 10 list for the position this year?
NBA 2K24 Power Forwards Ratings
Here’s our NBA 2K24 Power Forwards Ratings Top 10 prediction along with the latest confirmed reveals:
| Player | Rating |
| Giannis Antetokounmpo | 96 (confirmed) |
| Kevin Durant | 96 (confirmed) |
| Anthony Davis | 92 |
| Pascal Siakam | 88 |
| Karl-Anthony Towns | 87 |
| Kristaps Porzingis | 87 |
| Jaren Jackson Jr. | 87 |
| Julius Randle | 86 |
| Zion Williamson | 86 |
| Evan Mobley | 85 |
It should come to the surprise of no one that Giannis Antetokounmpo is number one on the list for NBA 2K24 with a 96 overall. Though NBA 2K24 did confirm Nikola Jokić as the best player in the new game, Antetokounmpo could potentially manage to snag the number one spot over the course of the regular season because he’s just that gifted.
Kevin Durant was the second best power forward in NBA 2K23. But this year, Durant is tied in first for the position in NBA 2K24 with the exact same 96 overall rating. Though his tenure with the Brooklyn Nets didn’t fair as well as it could have, Durant proved last season just how great he still is, something he displayed on the Suns upon being traded there as well.
This year we are not predicting many 90+ overalls for the power forward position, but there’s a handful of stars that could come close. Down below we cover five our predicted Top 10 power forwards and why we feel they should be on the list in NBA 2K24.
Giannis Antetokounmpo – 96 overall
For those wondering why the Greek Freak is back at the number one spot, think again. Not only did Antetokounmpo average a career high 31.1 points per game, but he also averaged double digit rebounds for the sixth straight season (11.8) and was named an All Star for a seventh straight year as well. The man can simply do it all, and had he not injured his back during the first round of the playoffs, the Bucks could have easily made their way to the Eastern Conference Finals with their star man. Although Antetokounmpo was a 97 in NBA 2K23, this year NBA 2K24 chose to make him a 96 overall.
Kevin Durant – 96 overall
Despite turning 35 later this year, Kevin Durant has simply been unfazed by time over the last two seasons. Granted, Durant was sidelined for a good portion of games in each of those two seasons. But even so, it’s been still so impressive to see man recover and not miss a beat upon returning to the NBA court. After dropping 29.9 points per game over the 2021-22 season in 55 games played, Durant dropped 29.1 in a combined 47 games played for both the Nets and the Suns. The man is simply a legend of the sport and deserves to be the second best power forward with his confirmed 96 overall rating in NBA 2K24.
Karl-Anthony Towns – 87 overall
Karl-Anthony Towns at power forward? Yes! Towns was a center throughout his entire career so far. But last season did mark the first time where he was a full-time power forward with the arrival of French center Rudy Gobert, and that will likely be the case this upcoming season as well. In NBA 2K23, Towns was a 89 overall at launch. But following an injury riddled season that kept him to just 29 games played and saw him post career low averages in points per game and rebounds per game, it would come to a surprise if he was higher than an 87 overall. Towns is certainly still one of the best big man shooters in the league, especially from three-point range. So making him lower than an 87 would be a bit harsh.
Julius Randle – 86 overall
The arrival of Jalen Brunson was big for Julius Randle, creating space for the power forward to score a career high average of 25.1 points per game while coming away with 10.0 rebounds and 4.1 assists. Keep in mind that only was Randle an All Star last season, but he also was a major reason why the Knicks managed to get to the playoffs and push past the first round. In NBA 2K23, Randle was an 82 at launch, so his four point jump is a big one. But seeing how well he played, it’s only fair that Randle receives an 86 overall.
Zion Williamson – 86 overall
Williamson looked excellent in the 29 games he played last season, scoring 26 points per game while averaging 7.0 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 1.1 steals. But the issue with Zion over these last couple of seasons as been injuries, and because he missed so much time over the 2022-23 campaign, it’s tough to imagine NBA 2K making him any higher than the rating he had in NBA 2K23, which was an 87 overall. Williamson is hands down still one of the best and most dominant power forwards in the NBA, but because of his limited time on the floor, should come in at an 86 overall this year.
