Today's sports news is from Los Angeles. Here's the latest news from the Dodgers, Lakers, Angels, Kings, Galaxy, LAFC, USC, UCLA and more LA teams.The 28-year old has put up solid shooting performance, rebounding and MT 2K23 playmaking despite playing 37% his time at the center, the most in his career by far. Toronto's wing-heavy, small-ball lineups brought them to fifth place. Despite their first round exit was not the best, the season, Siakam's overall should not have declined due to it - if anything, it was quite the opposite.

The Phoenix Suns, by an very small margin, played an overall defense ranking third in the regular season last year but they could've had the distinction of being first. A team effort from all players is essential to sustain this level of excellence over the course of more than 82 games. Fourth year forward Mikal Bridges played an important part in this. Not only did he play all 82 games , but Bridges was perhaps the most efficient defender on the team.

But, it's not evident in his overall or defensive rating for the perimeter. The overall rating didn't increase from 2K22 - it maintained 83. The perimeter defense rating is 85 (A-minus), which is second in the league behind Chris Paul's 90. For a player who was second in the Defensive Players of the Year awards last year the two ratings should be much higher.

Moving on to one of the players that is under-rated in the NBA, Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kenrich Williams is next on the list for two distinct reasons. One is the defense at the perimeter, where the 27-year-old has made the name for himself in Oklahoma. He's extremely aggressive, hard to take down at the point of attack as well as a strong player in one-on one situations and is just generally much superior than what he's being credited for. He is ranked ninth on the team in defensive perimeter, trailing players like Ty Jerome and Aleksej Poku?evski this shouldn't be the case.

However Williams has the fifth best 3 point rating of the Cheap NBA 2K23 MT team even though he was ranked 10th overall in 3-point percentage during the season at 33.9% . 0.8 makes a game. Williams' profile may not be completely accurate, but his 75 overall marks a decent starting point (even when it should have been 77).
