Matisse Thybulle is ranked very high by NBA 2K27 in one category
NBA 2K27, the latest installment in the popular video game franchise, is scheduled to be released on Sept. 4, with some people getting early access starting on Aug. 28. With a few weeks to go before it becomes available, some of its player ratings have been leaked.
One may not expect Matisse Thybulle, a wing the Los Angeles Lakers recently signed to a one-year, $2.45 million contract, to be rated highly in NBA 2K27. But Thybulle has established himself over the years as a defensive pest, and he was twice named to the All-Defensive second team.

Thus, the video game series has rewarded him. In the category of steals, he has a 98 rating, which puts him second among all players just behind the Detroit Pistons ' Ausar Thompson.
Thybulle, 29, has a career average of 1.6 steals in 20.6 minutes a game, and last season, he was at two steals in 16 minutes a game. He also has a career average of 0.8 blocks per game, as he is a threat to reject shots, especially as a help defender.
As long as he stays healthy (he appeared in a total of just 45 games over the last two years), he can make an impact on the Lakers, especially since he has become an excellent 3-point shooter over the last couple of seasons.
