Despite the short window of time given to the "NBA 2K" team between the NBA regular season, which just ended on April 12, and the playoffs, which started on April 22, they were able to update the system to incorporate attribute changes for all the players.

The full list of the attribute changes was posted on the official Twitter account of "NBA 2k17."

LeBron James took the top spot on the Top 10 list, with a 97 overall rating. He was followed by James Harden, Russell Westbrook, and Kawhi Leonard, with the two latter players seemingly rewarded for their good performance in the latter part of the season. All three had a 96 overall rating. Tied with 95 rating are Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant, followed by Anthony Davis with 94. Rounding out the top 10 are Chris Paul, Paul George, and DeMarcus Cousins, all three of whom had a 91 overall rating.

The list also put Westbrook as the top point guard. He was followed by Curry, Chris Paul, John Wall, Kyrie Irving, Isiah Thomas, Damian Lillard, Kyle Lowry, Mike Conley, and Kemba Walke

Harden took the top shooting guard position. He was followed by Jimmy Butler, DeMar DeRozan, Klay Thompson, Bradley Beal, C.J. McCollum, Devin Booker, Dwyane Wade, Avery Bradley, and Khris Middleton.

James took the top spot as small forward. Also on the list were Leonard, Durant, George, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Gordon Hayward, Carmelo Anthony, Andrew Wiggins, Harrison Barnes, and Jae Crowder.

Anthony Davis topped the list for power forwards. Following him were Blake Griffin, LaMarcus Aldridge, Kevin Love, Draymond Green, Paul Millsap, Kristaps Porzingis, Jabari Parker, Zach Randolph, and Dirk Nowitzki.

Cousins topped the centers list. He was followed by Marc Gasol, Kart-Anthony Towns, Rudy Gobert, Nikola Jokic, Hassan Whiteside, DeAndre Jordan, Joel Embiid, Andre Drummond, Al Horford, and Brook Lopez.

Uproxx noted that none of the changes were surprising, considering how the players performed during the season. It noted that the biggest changes may have been the ratings of Derrick Jones Jr. and Bryn Forbes, both of whom jumped up by five points from 65 to 70. Almost as significant were Semaj Christon and Tyler Ennis, who moved up by four points, with the former at 69 and the latter at 72.
