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. |
