NBA 2K24 will have many talented wings. The NBA has a lot of amazing players at the small forward position, which is why we expect them to dominate the video game. This is arguably the most versatile position in basketball and is essential in every lineup.

In this article, we predict the best small forwards in NBA 2K24. You can also check out our predictions for top point guards and shooting guards.

These 5 small forwards will likely have the highest ratings in NBA 2K24

5) Kawhi Leonard

Kawhi Leonard is one of the best two-way players in the NBA. He can do it all on the floor, whether it’s playing lockdown defense or knocking down long-range shots. Unfortunately, the Claw has appeared in only 52 games over the past two years, which is why his rating will likely take a hit.

Predicted rating: 92

4) Jayson Tatum

Jayson Tatum is coming off his best career year in which he averaged 30.1 points per game. The Boston Celtics small forward is a fantastic scorer and a great all-around player, which will be reflected in his NBA 2K24 rating.

Predicted rating: 93

3) Jimmy Butler

If heart and soul were rated, Jimmy Butler would be the best small forward in NBA 2K24. However, even without these intangibles, the Miami Heat forward will be rated high. He had an incredible run last year, leading the team to the NBA Finals while beating several favorites in the playoffs.

Predicted rating: 93

2) Kevin Durant

Kevin Durant will play his first full season as a member of the Phoenix Suns. He’s one of the best scorers the league has ever had and could be the best offensive player in NBA 2K24. However, KD’s defense and rebounding aren’t exactly the best, which is why he likely won’t be the best small forward.

Predicted rating: 95

1) LeBron James

LeBron James will enter his 21st season in the NBA this year, yet he’s still playing at a high level. King James is a versatile forward who can do everything on the floor. The LA Lakers superstar plays solid defense and is a fantastic playmaker and scorer.

Predicted rating: 96
