NBA 2K21 Best Builds For MyPlayer and MyCareer
Knowing beforehand where you’re playing on the field and what your position will be in the court can help you out a lot when making a character in NBA 2K21 MyCareer.
Specifically designing a character in NBA 2K21 for the main role instead of trying to go for all things at once initially can result in some poor results.
Skills
Finishing directly influences your proficiency in offense. You’ll be focusing on Close Shot, Driving Dunk, and Standing Dunk here.
Defense/Rebounding will better improve your ability to play around with your opponents when it comes to dribbling. You get better at Stealing and executing Offensive Rebounds and Defensive Rebounds.
Playmaking indicates how good you are at passing and moving with the ball. Investing into Pass Accuracy and Ball Handle will ensure you are able to dribble precisely and set important plays up for your allies.
Shooting will make you better at offense outside of the paint. You’ll basically get better at Three-Point Shots or Free Throws.
Physical Profile
Agility will improve your Speed as well as the time it takes to reach your maximum Speed.
Strength will indicate how effectively your player will be able to tackle the other opponent to win over the ball.
Vertical refers to the speed at which you reach the apex of your jump. If you have a character that needs to rely on both types of rebounding, you’re going to want a good Vertical.
Body Shape
Your Body Type does not affect your performance.
Your Height however does, depending on your Height, you will see a negative effect on Speed, whilst a positive effect on Strength.
If your Weight increases, you’ll have better Strength. With lesser Weight, you’ll experience an increase in Speed.
Wingspan refers to how wide your player’s arms are. Depending on where you plan to position your character, you’ll have to adjust your Wingspan accordingly.

- Offensive Threat
- Scoring Machine
- 2-Way Finisher
- 3-Level Scorer
- Shot-Creating Sharpshooter

Potential – Put your points into Shooting until you have 30 badges in total, you can then continue to fill your remaining out into Playmaking, Defense/Rebound and Finishing respectively.
