MILWAUKEE, WI – APRIL 27: Thon Maker
MILWAUKEE, WI – APRIL 27: Thon Maker /

C – Thon Maker: 75 overall

Start of 2K17: 71

End of 2K17: 74

Thon Maker’s Summer League performances were not exactly jaw-dropping, but his performances in the Playoffs will be enough to see his overall rating increase a tad from the end of this past season.

With Maker’s combination of youth/potential, length, speed, three-point shooting, and shot-blocking, Thon will be extremely fun to play with during this upcoming season. He will also likely start at center for the Bucks and will be involved in the lineup with another fan-favorite in the previously mentioned Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Thon will be a “cheat code” of sorts once again with his playing style and hopefully 2K rewards him for his Playoff performances with a solid starting rating from which he can build on.
