Davis <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/NBA2K\/status\/1958272834423095767\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">earned a 93 overall<\/a> rating, good for 12th among all players.<\/p>\n<p>AD is just ahead of former Mavericks and current New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson and one spot behind Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell.<\/p>\n<p>So, did NBA 2K26 get Davis&#8217; overall rating correct?<\/p>\n<p>In all reality, it is difficult to argue that there are 11 players who are better than Davis in the NBA right now. However, AD was limited to just 51 total games played in 2024-25. He also has not earned an All-Star vote since the 2019-20 season. Davis has been limited at times due to injuries, though. While on the floor, he&#8217;s often been one of the better players in the league.<\/p>\n<p>NBA 2K26 arguably got Davis&#8217; rating correct \u2014 but it is not difficult to envision the Mavericks forward instantly increasing his rating once the regular season gets underway. Irving is expected to be out until at least early 2026 while recovering from ACL surgery. 2025 No. 1 overall pick <a href=\"https:\/\/clutchpoints.com\/tag\/cooper-flagg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Cooper Flagg<\/a> will likely require some time in the NBA to make the adjustment to the league before emerging as a true superstar.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/clutchpoints.com\/nba\/mavericks-anthony-davis-poised-biggest-nba-season\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mavericks are Anthony Davis&#8217; team<\/a> heading into the new campaign.\u00a0He will have a legitimate opportunity to play some of the best basketball of his career \u2014 as long as he stays healthy.<\/p>\n<p>For now, Davis&#8217; 93 overall rating is reasonable. He may finish the 2025-26 season with a significantly higher rating in the game, though. AD is poised for success in his first full season in Dallas with the Mavs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-tertiary italic text-secondary [&amp;_&gt;a]:text-link [&amp;_&gt;a]:underline\"><a href=\"https:\/\/clutchpoints.com\/author\/josephmistretta\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Joey Mistretta<\/a> is a Dallas Mavericks beat reporter, Dallas Wings beat reporter and lead MLB editor for ClutchPoints.
