Wilson Chandler should get a decent rating in NBA 2K18.

Wilson Chandler had arguably the best season of his career last year for the Denver Nuggets. With this in mind, he should earn a solid 2K rating.

Before I go any further, do not forget 2K ratings are adjusted as the season progresses. If a player suddenly starts playing better, their rating rises and if they start to perform poorly, their rating does downward. My prediction for Wilson Chandler is he will receive a 2K rating of 77.

This is not a bad rating for a player of his caliber. Chandler has always been one of the most versatile players on the Nuggets’ roster and could have a spot on almost any other team’s roster in the league. What comes back to bite him though is his inconsistency and injury woes. Chandler does not have injury problems like now former Nugget Danilo Gallinari, but he still struggles with own fair share. Do not forget he missed an entire season a couple years ago due to a major hip injury.

His in-consistences also do not go unnoticed. One night, Chandler will be the high point man with 30+ points and a nice dose of rebounds and assists and the next night, he will struggle to find some sort of rhythm. However, his versatility is what saves him and why he should get at least in the mid to upper 70’s in terms of 2K ratings. This has always been the area his rating has camped around and it should not change much this year.

Chandler can stretch the floor, penetrate the defense, even play good defense and clean the glass, so maybe there is hope for a low 80’s rating. At the end of the day though, I am going to stick with my prediction of him getting a 77 rating.
