The LA Clippers are riding an eight-game win streak and have gone 9-1 in their last 10 games, and a big reason for that surge is none other than Kawhi Leonard. The two-time NBA champion has been healthy and locked in, averaging 25.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 2.3 steals a night in the past two weeks.

Tyrese Haliburton kept the momentum going after becoming a premier floor general for the Indiana Pacers last season. The All-Star guard led his team to the No. 4 seed in the East with averages of 18.6 points, 9.2 assists (third-best) in the league, and 3.5 rebounds. His double-digit assists in the last few weeks enabled him to reach the 90 OVR mark and crack the top 25.

Although not included in the list above, the other notable players who saw their OVR increase in the latest NBA 2K25 player ratings are Miami Heat’s Bam Adebayo (89 OVR, +2) New York Knick’s OG Anunoby (87 OVR, +1), Phildelphia 76ers’ Quentin Grimes (85 OVR, +1), and Chicago Bull’s Josh Giddey (85 OVR, +2)
