Brandon Ingram emerges as the highest-rated player on the Toronto Raptors roster in NBA 2K26, securing an 86 overall rating that narrowly edges out teammate Scottie Barnes. The virtual ratings, recently revealed for the popular basketball simulation game, position the Raptors as a team built around balance rather than star power.
Scottie Barnes follows closely with an 85 overall despite experiencing an inconsistent fourth season where his playmaking improved but efficiency wavered. Interestingly, his rating places him behind some unexpected names across the league, including Portland's Deni Avdija and Phoenix's Jalen Green.
The Raptors showcase impressive depth with RJ Barrett, Jakob Poeltl, and Immanuel Quickley all rated 83 overall. That gives Toronto five players rated between 83 and 86 – a tight cluster that emphasizes the team's balanced approach.
NBA 2K26 developers placed the Raptors in Tier 3, alongside the "Pistons", "Heat", "Bucks", and "Pelicans". All these teams share an 82 overall average among their top eight players. What the Raptors lack in superstar ratings, they make up for in depth and versatility.
Further down the roster, Gradey Dick starts at 79 overall, still needing to prove himself as a consistent shooter. Sophomore guard Ja'Kobe Walter begins at 77, just ahead of teammates Ochai Agbaji, Jamal Shead, and Jonathan Mogbo, who all tie at 76.
By the way, the lowest-rated Raptor is Ulrich Chomche at 68 overall. Bench players Colin Castleton (71), rookie Collin Murray-Boyles (72), and veteran Garrett Temple (70) round out the virtual squad, with AJ Lawson sitting at 75 and likely on the rotation fringe.
The game doesn't include ratings for Alijah Martin or Chucky Hepburn, perhaps reflecting their uncertain roles with the team.
While not the flashiest team in NBA 2K26, Toronto presents an intriguing option for players who enjoy balanced rosters. The question remains – can a team without a true 90+ rated superstar compete at the highest level in both the virtual world and the real NBA?
