When the actual ratings of some players on NBA 2k22 were revealed, Brooklyn Nets' star James Harden was rated 94 overall to start on this year's version of the famous basketball simulation game.

Harden's rating dropped from 95 on 2k21's initial release to 94 on 2k22. His rating is tied alongside Damian Lillard and Luka Doncic as the MVP-caliber players boast the same rating as the Nets' superstar.

Despite dropping a point from last year, Harden still had a higher rating compared to other stars in the NBA. However, it seems that James is not happy about his rating as he recently commented a series of laughing emojis on an Instagram post:

James Harden played eight games for the Houston Rockets last season before getting traded to the Nets. Even though Brooklyn has two ball-dominant players in Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, it did not hinder Harden's playmaking as he still averaged 10.8 assists while also scoring 24.6 points per game.

Following injuries to both Harden and Irving, the Milwaukee Bucks knocked off the Nets in last season's playoffs.

The Nets' trio will look to start their redemption tour soon as they are set to win it all this season barring any injuries and setbacks.

It will be interesting to see how James Harden's NBA 2k22 rating will go as the season progresses.

As for NBA 2K22, it’s set to be released on September 10th.
