To the surprise of no one, Zion Williamson leads the Blue Devils trio in the game as well as all the rookies entering the game.
The No. 1 overall pick of the New Orleans Pelicans in the 2019 NBA Draft will be an 81 overall when the game releases in the fall.
In his lone season at Duke, Williamson swept the National Player of the Year Awards and was a consensus All-American, averaging 22.6 points, 8.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 2.1 steals, and 1.8 blocks per game.
R.J. Barrett is not far behind his former Duke teammate as he get set to start his rookie season with the New York Knicks.
Barrett was the No. 3 pick in the 2019 NBA Draft and will have a 78 overall NBA2K20 rating.
Like in the NBA Draft, Barrett is the third highest rookie in the game, trailing Williamson and Memphis Grizzly rookie and No. 2 overall pick, Ja Morant who is a 79 overall.
The Canada native also averaged 22.6 points per game in his season as a Blue Devil in addition to 7.6 rebounds and 4.3 assists.
Cam Reddish was the No. 10 overall pick of the Atlanta Hawks in the NBA Draft but NBA2K20 did not rate him like the tenth-best rookie.
Reddish is a 75 overall in the game, ranked eighth among rookies, behind Williamson, Morant, Barrett, and his Hawks teammate De’Andre Hunter as well as Darius Garland, Jarrett Culver, and Coby White.
Fans will be able to play with all of their former Duke Basketball stars soon as NBA2K20 will be releases on all gaming consoles on September 6.
