new Elevate Whiteside has dynamite ratings!

[ramizi]

Check out new elevate player Hassan Whiteside stats:





So rebounding & inside the paint numbers going to be 90+ once he is 85 overall!
I guess someone in EA listend to the Butler complaints.

Yeah 1 week they give shitty stats for any position to Butler but great C stats for Whiteside the next week Jimmy never gets respect in this game stats wise and his card looks like it was the 1st Elevate card and not Westbrook/Griffin with how bad those stats are even the store card maxed is pretty bad outside of defensive stats

 

[Cortes]

I have lots of elevate tokens cuz I stopped play showdown and I play just daily events/campaigns, waiting for better game from EA (lol). So, I can use them all on Whiteside cuz I didn't touch Ingram and Butler.

I will post screens in a moment if someone cares. Probably can make him 83 or 84 with all the tokens I have.

Rebounding, post shot and contested shot are great for 84 version, but rebounding is so broken in this game and other stats are nothing special, so I don't know what to think.. he is so slow comparing to Wilt or Big Ben, but this card probably plays great as AI (like Russ and Blake).

Thanks for sharing the contested shot stat for someone that doesn't score much is very odd

np.. yea, contested shot and scoring with contact are sick for a 84 defensive-minded center like HW.
He is probably the best shot-blocking center in NBA, so 92 should be his shot block (it's just 83). EA should switch SB stat with CS and all would look correct.

He did put up 29 points, 9 blocks, and 20 rebounds a few weeks back. A motivated Hassan is a monster. His attitude and lack of motivation gets in his way. I feel these stats make sense.
By the way how do they pick elevate players? Like impact is it based on players that recently "elevate" their teams?

92 contested...I wonder at what number does it really not make a huge difference? Like, with Klay at 70, I definitely notice he makes less if the defense is close or closing out. Then there?s Steve Smith who has a pretty good contested but I can?t make squat with him usually, even though he?s a 76 3, which obviously isn?t amazing but it?s about as good as Simmons

I think "elevate" simply refers to the process of leveling them up. I believe Hoffman is in charge of picking the players. I must say they've done an excellent job of designing these cards.

Decent stats on this one.. let's see when it gets nerfed.

 

[G2theMoney]

yeah but a (max85) def C.. when an 86 def C is currently available?
umm.. at least could have been a bal C..

Ah I see. I'm just curious how they actually select who we will get. I agree they definitely did a good job designing these cards. Plus considering top tier cards are 87-90 now, a free 85ovr ain't bad at all. I used 85 Westbrook and Griffin for quite a while until Halloween.

Brian has said that the cap will be raised on all Elevate players in the near future.

Thats great news.. makes up for not having an upgradeable master ..the mini elevate promo should be interesting

 

[cire2245]

Rhis is a good news. Also, if they could make the trained elevate players to also be used as training points for another elevate player with tp points carrying over that would be awesome as well.

 

[Commondjapan]

I don't think that will happen.

 

[jack_george]

I don't think that will happen.

Probably a higher chance to get Elevate Yao lol

 

[cire2245]

Has someone leveled whiteside up to 88 and can show his stats? I'm thinking of getting a 90 bf center once i complete the 500 tokens but might just work on him so i can spend my bf tokens on other position to improve my lineup.

Did you pull him from a pack and then upgrade?
