Russell Westbrook

Russell Westbrook is going to end the list as one of the five best point guards you’ll be able to play as in NBA 2K21. Westbrook is another player that posses a lot of speed. I can’t stress enough how pivotal point guards need to be in the playmaking aspect of the game. Westbrook was given a 87 overall in play making and a 92 overall in athleticism in NBA 2K20, two huge factors in why he makes such a great point guard.

This season, Russell Westbrook played in 53 games and average 27.5 points per game and shot 47.4% from the field. This has been a top three year in terms of production from Westbrook and it has been his best year in terms of field goal percentage.

He’s a very skilled player and consistently one of the top point guards taken in fantasy basketball. Westbrook should land as the fifth best point guard to use in NBA 2K21.

Summary

As you can see, the NBA is filled with talented point guards and it should be interesting to see how they perform when the NBA returns to action later this month. The playoff format could also give us a glimpse into who will be among the top players in NBA 2K21.

NBA 2K21 will be released on current-gen platforms on September 4, 2020. It’s slated to arrive on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X this holiday season. The next-gen version will cost $69.99, priced $10 more than its current-gen counterpart.
