S2: Best Dribble Moves

Dribble Style

Stephen Curry  - If you want to have the fastest dribble, Stephen Curry is undoubtedly the best dribble for you

Christ Paul - The best dribbling style in the game technically is Christ Paul because you can do a glitch in the game where you don't have to take an adrenaline boost, but it does depend on how you master it. 

Michael Jordan - The best dribbling style in the game technically is Christ Paul because you can do a glitch in the game where you don't have to take an adrenaline boost, but it does depend on how you master it. 

Signature Size- Up

Tracy McGrady - While standing, Tracy McGrady's Signature Size-Up is somewhat quicker than Paul George's, but it doesn't have quite the same potential for a speed spike.

Zach Levine - Zach LaVine is a great choice if you're aiming to combo into speed boost moves.

Steve Francis & Trey Young: If you are building up a guard, these two would be the best choice.

Size-Up Escape Package

Damian Lillard (Under 6'10) - Damian Lillard is likely the finest option for size-up escape packages because of his excellent step-back and extremely quick speed boost techniques.

LeBron James - If you don't have the necessary Ball Handle skills to be Damian Lillard, LeBron James is still a fantastic step-back for you.

John Wall - Choose John Wall if you lack the attributes to equip Damian Lillard or LeBron James. He is a good alternative with decent left-right speed boosts.

Moving Crossover

Lonzo Ball - Even though Zach LaVine is our top pick overall—especially given the low attribute requirements—James Harden is a strong alternative you should consider.

James Harden -  James Harden has the fastest-moving crossover in the league, and the requirements are quite simple.

Moving Behind The Back

Pro - The Pro is the best Moving Behind The Back in the game for the lower-rated dribbers

Zach LaVine - The best choice of moving behind the back in the game is Zach Lavine, and you should have little trouble fulfilling the conditions.

Allen Iverson - Allen Iverson is good to a certain extent, but he does too much, and it goes too wide.

Moving Spin Basic - Although choosing the Basic Moving Spin may seem strange, it is the fastest and most efficient choice.
Moving Hesitation Luka Doncic - Luca Doncic's Moving Hesitation requirements are so low that almost any build may equip it, yet it is very powerful.
Moving Stepback James Harden - James Harden's Stepback move will provide you with a ton of room and enable you to sink those crucial buckets unimpededly.
Triple Threat Style Michael Jordan - By far, the best Triple Threat Style in NBA 2K23
Pass Style LaMelo Ball - LaMelo Ball's Pass Style gets the ball out of your hands much faster than others. If you have this animation, you will pass it dead into a player that doesn't even press X.
