Age is not slowing Kawhi Leonard down.
The Klaw is showing how sharp his skills are by averaging a career-high 28.1 points per game in an attempt to bail the LA Clippers out of their unenviable position in the Western Conference, courtesy of sloppy start to the season. His current efforts have netted the 34-year-old a two-point upgrade in NBA 2K26, bringing his tally up to 94 OVR.
Leonard isn’t the only top performer gaining extra points. Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown earned as many as the Clippers star, while Karl-Anthony Towns, Tyrese Maxey, Donovan Mitchell, Cade Cunningham and Anthony Edwards all added a single point to their respective OVRs.
LeBron James once again finds himself on the wrong side of the table, dropping another two points and going down to 92 OVR alongside Anthony Davis.
