My Player builds

Diming Paint Beast looks interesting. I still have a long way to get to Rebirth, and even when I do, I'm not sure I'll end up ever using it. Starting out at 60 Overall again kind of defeats the purpose, since getting Badges is way easier than increasing attributes. It'd make more sense to start out at a 75-80 Overall so the new player is immediately viable. Of course, that doesn't work for recurrent revenue, so...

Yeah I wish. That'd be nice. You make a good point about revenue, but otoh I think people would have way more builds if prices were lower.

They probably would, but they also make bank as it is, so sadly I don't see it becoming any fairer.

shades of Jason Williams:


diming three and d point

invested heavily in speed, acceleration and speed with ball as well as pass accuracy and still have a threepointer of 89 and decent defense plus 74 dunk and 81 lay up

shades of Tony Allen:



no shooting whatsoever but seems like a fun build to me

Now I'm contemplating what's more fun a big with 99 block and rebound good passing and dunking or a guard with 99 steal and 87 block and the same offensively

I actually came up with a new allround type of build, which got the 99 steal:

I squeezed two more badge points:

I tried to see what you can get with a 99 threepointer. This is the best I came up with:

Alternative with still 99 threepointer:



much better perimeter defense and ball handling

I am now considering a completely different build:



A 6'8 center with 89 threepointer and 89 ball handling. Undersized but hoping I can take advantage on offense with high speed and acceleration and hof quick first step.

I changed a few things. Kind of torn whether to stick with 89 threepointer or drop it to 86 in favor of defense.
I'm also considering to drop 89 ball handle to 85 because it's quite expensive. Would cost me hof quick first step though and gold clamp breaker.

I hope those Easter Egg builds transfer over to NBA 2K24. I'd love to try out that Matrix archetype, but I've already created two MPs in 23.
