NBA 2K21 was released worldwide on Friday, marking the latest edition of the game that has dominated the basketball video game market.
For those who have not yet gotten it, take a look at the Oklahoma City Thunder roster and player ratings, both for the current team and the all-time rosters that are included.
Point guard Chris Paul tops the 2021 team with a rating of 88, the 20th-best in the league.
On the all-time roster, Kevin Durant leads the Thunder/Sonics with a 97 rating and Gary Payton is close behind at 95.
2K21 Thunder roster
- Point guard Chris Paul: 88
- Guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: 84
- Forward Danilo Gallinari: 83
- Center Steven Adams: 82
- Guard Dennis Schroder: 80
- Center Nerlens Noel 76

Some notable figures, beyond Paul’s 88:
Dort has a B+ for perimeter defense; Diallo, despite getting quite a bit of rotation time, and Ferguson, who started part of the year, are ranked quite low compared to players like Burton, Roby and Hervey, who got minimal time. 2K21 has very few of today’s players ranked below 70.

- Guard Gary Payton 95
- Point guard Russell Westbrook 95
- Guard/forward Ray Allen 95

The game also has the 1995-96 Sonics team that won 64 games and got to the NBA Finals behind Payton and Kemp.
In addition, it has the 2011-12 Thunder roster that made the Finals with Durant, Westbrook, James Harden and Serge Ibaka.
