NBA 2k19 has given All-Star and 1st Team All-NBA point guard Damian Lillard a 90 overall rating out of 100. The announcement comes via a tweet from the video game’s titular Twitter account. Lillard’s banner 2017-18 campaign with the Portland Trail Blazers—which included the aforementioned honors, a trip to the 2018 NBA Playoffs, and a gaudy 26.9 ppg scoring average (good for 4th in the NBA)—earned him only a single-point increase over last season’s initial rating of 89 for NBA 2k18.
