Active Center Player Levels in NBA 2K23 Season 2
The 2022-23 season has begun, and our NBA 2K23 game is in its second season. However, we are all curious about which centers will become second only to Jokic and Embiid in the new season so that there can be a tripartite situation in the center position. So, we've broken down the top 15 active centers of the 2022-23 season into four tiers, and which ones are overrated or underrated. You can use the following players to build your ideal center player in NBA 2K23 and get more NBA 2K23 MT to speed up your build.
Tier 1: Nikola Jokic, Joel Embiid
The first two players are all well-known centers in the league.
Nikola Jokic, as an all-around center, can be said to be one of the top five players in the league in the new season. The current season averages 24 points, 10 rebounds, and 9 assists per game, only 0.3 away. It assists. You can average a triple-double.
Joel Embiid's first gear this season is a little off because the 76ers have lost three straight. Although they averaged 27 points, 13 rebounds, and 3 assists per game, their role at critical moments seems a little powerless.
Tier 2: Bam Adebayo, Rudy Gobert, Deandre Ayton
The second gear and the three are all top seconds or third-level centers in the league. They are not as versatile and outstanding as Jokic and Embiid and can be qualified as team leaders.
Bam Adebayo is the starting center for the Heat, averaging 13 points and 8 rebounds per game in the new season. His weakness is that his physical confrontation is not the best, but he can defend from the No. 1 to the No. 5 position.
As the starting center of the Timberwolves, Rudy Gobert averaged 15 points, 18 rebounds, and 1 block per game in the new season. As a traditional center, his shooting percentage is 61%. Although he does not have the ability to shoot three-pointers, Rudy Gobert will use his height and wingspan. And the advantages of body shape are brought into full play.
Deandre Ayton is currently playing for the Suns, and he had a conflict with the team last season over a contract extension, but he finally got his wish and won a big contract. With an average of 19 points and 8 rebounds per game this season, it can be seen that the Suns have designed some tactics for him, allowing him to be more involved in the team's offense rather than just defense.
Tier 3: Kristaps Porzingis, Jarrett Allen, Robert Williams, Myles Turner, Nikola Vucevic
Kristaps Porzingis is the starting center of the Wizards. Besides Bradley Beal, Porzingis averaged 15 points, 8 rebounds, and 2 assists per game. The shooting percentage is a bit low, only 41.9%, but the three-pointer Shot 38 percent from the field.
The Wizards' starter Jarrett Allen averaged 12 points and 10 rebounds per game because, after the arrival of Donovan Mitchell, his offensive possessions have decreased a lot, but his defense is still the best in the Cavaliers, and he is also a player. A traditional center.
Robert Williams was the Celtics' starting center and the Celtics' finals center last season. Although he has not returned due to a knee injury in the new season, he averaged 10 points and 9 rebounds per game last season. We believe he will improve after his comeback, and the Celtics have won three straight.
Pacers Myles Turner, who will miss about a week because of an ankle injury, did not play the same game in the new season. Many NBA fans and media believe that the Pacers are protecting the value of Myles Turner's trade. Because the Lakers' performance is getting worse and worse, they may trade at all costs to get Myles Turner.
Nikola Vucevic plays for the Chicago Bulls and is currently averaging 18 points, 9 rebounds, and 2 assists per game in the new season. Nikola Vucevic is also an all-around center, but his height is only 2.08 meters. Compared with many centers, he has no speed. He has the advantage of outside three-point shooting ability, bounce, explosiveness, and size advantage.
Tier 4: Mitchell Robinson, Jusuf Nurkic, Brook Lopez, Clint Capela, Jonas Valanciunas
Fourth gear and 5 players, Mitchell Robinson, played for the Knicks, averaging 6 points, 3 rebounds, and 2 blocks per game in the new season, and did not play much time in the new season.
The Blazers' Jusuf Nurkic, who averaged 11 points and 12 rebounds per game in the new season, is one of the few players in league with more rebounds than points.
The big Brook Lopez of the Bucks averaged 13 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 blocks per game in the new season. The healthy big Brook Lopez is back. At the beginning of this season, the three-point shooting rate was 39%.
The Eagles' Clint Capela is a traditional center, averaging 8 points, 8 rebounds, and 1 block per game. Clint Capela is a low-profile version of the traditional center. He relies on strength, explosiveness, impact, and bounce to gain a foothold because the height of 2.08 meters is a bit short as a center.
Jonas Valanciunas of the Pelicans is currently averaging 17 points, 13 rebounds, and 3 assists per game. As a center, Jonas Valanciunas' shooting percentage is only 45%, which is really low but don't forget that he is not a traditional center. He also shot 40 percent from three-point range but only averaged 1.7 attempts per game.
