Jameer Nelson- Overall 70 (2K16- 72)

Jameer Nelson is another Nuggets player coming off an injury ridden season in 2015-16. Nelson, now 34 years old, was a below average point guard in 2K16 and will not likely be shown much love in the upcoming game either.

Nelson’s best stats in game are outside scoring and playmaking, having above average shooting stats and solid passing ability. Nelson continues to get older however, so natural regression in many of his better stats is likely going into 2K17. He is not a good on ball defender in game and will be a liability on that side of the floor in 2K17.

Nelson should find himself closer to sub 70 rating in 2K17 due to aging and coming off an injury plagued season. Nelson will be most effective in limited minutes dishing the ball to the Nuggets other playmakers.
