Recently, the NBA 2k22 cover athletes were revealed to the world. Luka Doncic and Kevin Durant are the current players who are part of the cover. In addition, Dirk Nowitzki and Kareem Abdul Jabbar are also gracing the cover. Candace Parker became the first woman to be on the cover of NBA 2K.

The official NBA 2K Twitter account has been uploading images of players like Steph Curry and Damian Lillard, asking fans to guess their rating. But Kevin Durant was asked directly in a video, and his answer was very honest: he thinks he would have to be a 99.

In a video posted by NBA 2K, Durant, one of the cover athletes for the game's 75th anniversary edition, explained why he believes his rating should be a 99 overall.

"I work extremely hard," said Durant, who was a 96 overall last year. "I pretty much do everything great. That's why I should be a 99."

Kevin Garnett was the first NBA 2K 99 overall in 2001, but Shaquille O'Neal responded by becoming the only 100 overall player the following year.

Aside from LeBron and Kobe, Tim Duncan, Chris Paul, Shaquille O’Neal, and Kevin Garnett are the only other active players to have received a 99 rating in NBA 2K (Shaq was rated at 100 in NBA 2K2). Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar round out the extremely short list of 99-rated players throughout the history of the game.

While Durant made a great pitch, 2K has not given that kind of rating for a long time. The highest that they go is 98. Notably, last year LeBron James and Kawhi Leonard took the throne of the highest-rated players. However, this year Kevin Durant very well deserves to be the topmost guy.

Needless to say, joining 2K's 99 Club is no easy feat, but KD's heroics in the 2021 playoffs along with his golden hardware from the Tokyo Olympics might help bolster his case.
