Shoutout to whoever told Donovan Mitchell he’s “washed” during a game of NBA 2K26, because that lit a fire under the six-time All-Star. The Cavs superstar just turned 29 years old in September and is in the midst of his prime, and the numbers back it up.
This season, Mitchell is averaging a career high in points with 30.9 per game and knocking down 38% of his three-point attempts, also a career best; however, over the last two weeks, Mitchell has posted 32.1 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 6.4 assists per game. There’s a lesson to be learned here: Don’t talk trash to Donovan Mitchell, especially in NBA 2K26.
It’s time to put some respect on Cade Cunningham and the Detroit Pistons. The former No. 1 overall pick has never lacked talent, but it’s taken some time for the Pistons as a whole to start firing on all cylinders. Thanks to Cunningham’s poised leadership and elite playmaking, the Pistons are off to the team’s best start in 20 years.
In the last two weeks, Cunningham dropped a 46-point triple-double, adding seven stocks (steals and blocks) to his statline. Right now, it looks like there’s no slowing this team down, and the 24-year-old star is well on his way to making another All-Star appearance in February.
When NBA 2K26 launched, Jalen Johnson cracked the top 100 players at No. 96, with a rating of 81 overall. In a little over a month, he’s skyrocketed up the list and now finds himself quickly approaching the 90 OVR club.
Johnson’s rangy, athletic build makes him a difficult matchup to guard, capable of using his speed and strength to power his way to the rim, or separate from defenders for an uncontested jumpshot. With Trae Young sidelined, Johnson has stepped into a leadership position on the court, commanding the offense with 23.7 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 8.3 assists per game over the last two weeks.
