NBA 2K20 How To Ankle Break

Everyone loves a good ankle breaker, right? Yeah, we do. Today, we are going to show you some of the best ankle breakers that NBA 2k20 has to offer. 

Want to be the best ankle breaker on the court? Here is arguably the biggest thing to know going in:

READ THE ANKLE BREAKER BADGE CAREFULLY. It says “when performing stepbacks and other certain moves”. So by all means, unlock the ankle breaker badge. 

But if you want it to work at its most effective, you have to do more than just upgrade it to Hall of Fame. 

None of these are required for breaking ankles. There is some room for your creativity but pick something fast because speed kills. I recommend that when using these skills, you start to see a change when you reach the Silver level for badge upgrades.

 

PLAYMAKING badges:

Ankle Breaker

Handles For Days 

Quick First Step 

Space Creator 

Tight Handles 

Unpluckable 

 

Before we get into the animations, you should know that you are going to need some VC to spend because this stuff is not free. None of these are required for you, but some of them you could use. If you want more information, go to these articles written by a very talented writer (Best Ankle Breakers, Player Builds, Best Animations). You also need to meet certain requirements for purchasing some of these animations like being a guard or having 70 for your ball handling ability and a minimum of 250 VC. So with that being said, let's get after it.
