The "NBA 2K17" roster was updated to reflect the results of the season, effectively changing the stats of all the players in the league.

The list was originally posted by the game publisher on Twitter. Unsurprisingly, LeBron James once again took the number one position in the list of top 10 players in the league, garnering an overall rating of 97. He was followed by a trio — James Harden, Kawhie Leonard, and Russell Westbrook — who all scored 96. They were then followed by Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant, who are tied at 95, and Anthony Davis with 94. Another triple tie — Chris Paul, Paul George, and DeMarcus Cousins — with an overall rating if 91, filled up the remaining three slots of the top 10.

James was also recognized as the top-ranking small forward. He was followed by Leonard, Durant, George, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Gordon Hayward, Carmelo Anthony, Andrew Wiggins, Harrison Barnes, and Jae Crowder.

Westbrook, meanwhile, was recognized as the top point guard. Also on the top 10 list were Curry, Chris Paul, John Wall, Kyrie Irving, Isiah Thomas, Damian Lillard, Kyle Lowry, Mike Conley, and Kemba Walker.

Cousins was ranked first among the centers on the 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 for the top 10 centers in the latest update.

Harden took the top spot as shooting guard. Also in the top 10 for this position are Jimmy Butler, DeMar DeRozan, Klay Thompson, Bradley Beal, C.J. McCollum, Devin Booker, Dwyane Wade, Avery Bradley, and Khris Middleton.

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

None of the players underwent massive stat changes for the April update.
