5. Glass Cleaning Center

Become the King of rebounds with this build. The Inside will be your domain and you will gobble up any missed shot with this player. This build is as traditional of a center as possible and probably the single most viable build for a big man.

If you choose to go for this build, you are going for a simple role with a player that focuses purely on the inside. This player will rebound, score open dunks and layups of pick and roll, cuts, lobs, and transition,  and will be a stalwart presence as a rim protector in the paint. It is limited on every other end on purpose as you use this build to focus on all the inside parts of the game.

What a Glass Cleaning Center Excels In:

• Dominant Roll man in the pick and roll setting hard screens and getting easy buckets inside
• Rim Protector making no shot in the paint easy
• Aerial supremacy with putbacks and poked balls
• Underrated post scorer as well
• Rebounds the ball on both ends with ease getting easy putbacks or setting up transition plays on offense.

Build details: 

• 6’10
• 240lbs
• Max shoulder width
• Glass Cleaner Archetype

4. Playmaking 6’7 Point guard

Tall Point guards are still viable. While playmaking is a controversial skill tree to use as it’s not the typical high-scoring build people go for, it has its worth both in-game and in the park.

This build is an all-around type of build. In the park and online, the dimer gets your teammates shot to go in with ease. This build is the one you use if you really trust your teammates as the bulk of your job is playmaking for them. Your scoring always comes secondary with decent a jump shot and some inside finishing on layups and dunks

What a Tall Playmaking point guard excels in:

• Pick and rolls are almost guaranteed buckets all the time whether it's an open shooter or a feed to the roll man.
• Transition weapon whether taking it in himself or throwing an easy pass to an open running teammate.
• Probably one of the best overall defenders you could possibly make.
• Matchup nightmare towering over every other guard build.
• Has the best handles around with how shifty they can be and how easy they are to string together.

Build details: 

• 6’7 height
• Playmaking archetype
• Point Guard
• 180 lbs

3. Point Forward Small Forward

Set your teammates up like point guards, and have the size of a big man. These are all the things you get when you go for this build. All around terror on the court and hard to contain.Versatile and useful in so many situations.

This is essentially a Lebron James-type player. You get inside scoring off of bullying drives and dunks, and you pass it out to open teammates for either easy scores inside or open shots from the perimeter. This build is also pretty good all around with a serviceable jumper and good overall defense for blocks steals etc.

What a Point Forward Small Forward Excels In:

• Transition machine Making any fastbreak opportunity an easy score.
• Defense is highly underrated keeping up with both big men and guards on the perimeter.
• Underrated Drive game with inside scores.
• Has the shifty handles of a point guard in the body of a typical NBA big man.
• Has a deep bag for whatever your team needs.

Build details: 

• 6’9 height
• 225 lbs
• Small Forward with Point Forward archetype

2. Sharpshooter Shooting guard

I have been saying this for every 2K and it continues to hold true, 3-pointers are worth more than 2. This year is another year that proves the point with shooting continuing to be an aspect of the game that gets you consistent scoring.

Sharpshooter continues to be a very 1-dimensional type of build, The fact being a sharpshooter leaves you with a lot of skills and being below average doesn't matter as much because at the end of the day you are still a monster from 3 that cannot be stopped. Simply catch the ball from deep at fire simple as that.

What a SharpshooterExcels In:

• Moving shots actually go in with this build with how consistent it is.
• Catch-and-shoot threes are pretty much-given shots as long as they aren't heavily contested
• Shot creation is also in this build’s bag with easy shots from mid-range also possible with some space creation.
• Underrated in every other aspect especially defense.
• The best 3-point scoring build meaning he is also the best scoring build you can possibly make.

Build details:

• 6’5 height
• Sharpshooter archetype
• Shooting Guard
• 190 lbs

1. Shot Creator Point Guard

The most dominant build in the game this year. A shot-creating Point guard is just the most unstoppable force on the offensive end of this game being pretty much unguardable at all times.

Choosing a shot-creating point guard just lets you choose your own poison for how you want to score. You can shot create with dribble moves to create space for open middys. YOu can also catch and shoot at a high clip, Iso and break down your defender for an easy score inside and just be an overall pest no matter how you score. Being able to do so many things at such an elite rate is why this is the best build you can possibly make

What Build Name Excels In:

• Call your own number and score with ease on every opportunity you feel like.
• Ball handling is barely below playmaking builds as you also have a deadly dribble game to get you open scores and passes
• Shooting is paired with inside finished at a high clip.
• Has underrated speed as well making fast breaks a treat. 
• An all-around offensive weapon even making post-fades possible.

Build details:

• 6’3 height
• 185 lbs
• Point guard
• Shot Creator Archetype
