Ability value of 96! Embiid is second in the league! The entire NBA laughs

On August 15, NBA 2K officially announced the top 10 behind-the-shot ability values at low posts: Jokic ranked first in the league in 98; Embiid ranked second in the league in 96; Sabonis ranked third in 93; Zubac ranked fourth in 91; Antetokounmpo ranked fifth in 90. The 6-10th place is: Towns, Shinkin, Siakam, Tatum, and Wenban Yama.

Many people speak out for their eyebrows: Is AD still in 2K26? In addition, some fans believe that Antetokounmpo should rank second, and Embiid is overrated. Looking at Embiid's shooting hot zone last season, only two areas within the three-point line had a shooting percentage higher than the league average, with a total shooting 14 of 25 shots and a shooting percentage of 56%.

Embid averaged 16.6 shots per game last season, including 4.1 three-pointers, accounting for the highest proportion in his career. At his peak, Embiid's ability to play back was at the forefront of the league, but he is no longer the level of MVP. There are more and more shots outside the face frame and three-point line, and the proportion of hard chisels at low and inside lines is getting smaller and smaller.

Embid has played only 58 games in the past two seasons. In April this year, he underwent another left knee arthroscopy surgery and is expected to miss the new season training camp. It is still unknown what level it can be restored to, but it is really unreasonable to 2K26 rank him second. Embiid's remaining contract is US$248 million for four years, with an average annual salary of US$62 million.

In the 2024-25 season, Embiid played only 19 games, averaging 23.8 points, 8.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 0.7 steals, 1 block, 3.3 turnovers, and three shooting percentages: 44.4%, 29.9%, 88.2%. The lowest score per game in nearly seven years and the second lowest rebounding career, only better than the rookie season. Both shooting percentage and three-point shooting percentage are the lowest in their careers!

Embid was born on March 16, 1994, and he is 31 years old. 76 people began to regret renewing Embiid early, but there was no medicine for regret in the world. I have to finish the path I choose even if I cry. So far in his NBA career, Embiid has played in a total of 452 regular season games, missed 430 regular season games, and his attendance rate is only a pitiful 51.2%.

Finally welcome to discuss: What do you think Embiid can rank in the league today?
