Regardless of your preferred position, we have the best MyPLAYER builds in NBA 2K25. With so many different possible NBA 2K25 playstyles, it\u2019s near impossible to cover all of them in one place, but we tried our best. We have playmakers, scorers, athletic wings, stretch bigs, and brawley center builds all lined up to pick from. If you like a certain build but play a different position, then you can simply adjust our recommendations to fit with that position. We kept the free throw attribute relatively low on all builds because we count on the player to nail the timing even on a lower stat. If you\u2019re not confident in your release timing, you can upgrade free throws to a comfortable level. You will of course miss out on another stat in the process though, so make sure you pick which one takes the hit wisely. Table of contentsBest point guard build in NBA 2K25Best shooting guard build in NBA 2K25Best small forward build in NBA 2K25Best power forward build in NBA 2K25Best center build in NBA 2K25 Best point guard build in NBA 2K25 Build type - Shot-Creating 3-Level Threat Height - 6-feet-2-inches Weight - 169 pounds Wingspan - 6-feet-4-inches Attribute Level Close Shot 86 Driving Layup 83 Driving Dunk 25 Standing Dunk 25 Post Control 59 Mid-Range Shot 85 Three-Point Shot 94 Free Throw 70 Pass Accuracy 82 Ball Handle 96 Speed With Ball 94 Interior Defense 37 Perimeter Defense 62 Steal 60 Block 38 Offensive Rebound 30 Defensive Rebound 52 Speed 89 Agility 79 Strength 43 Vertical 59Best point guard build in NBA 2K25 Pretty much every elite point guard in the NBA today can be described as a scoring playmaker. We thought it fitting to build one such player. Our Shot-Creating 3-Level Threat has nearly maxed out handles and three-pointers, is very good at scoring in the mid-range and in the paint, and is quick and agile enough to be a menace in transition, as well as half court. He can pass too! You won\u2019t be posterizing anyone with this point guard build, and perimeter defense is only average at best, but the trade-off of having nearly every trick in your offensive bag is completely worth it. Best shooting guard build in NBA 2K25 Build type - 2-Way 3-Level Shot Creator Height - 6-feet-4-inches Weight - 180 pounds Wingspan - 6-feet-6-inches Attribute Level Close Shot 86 Driving Layup 86 Driving Dunk 87 Standing Dunk 32 Post Control 33 Mid-Range Shot 86 Three-Point Shot 96 Free Throw 74 Pass Accuracy 59 Ball Handle 77 Speed With Ball 75 Interior Defense 56 Perimeter Defense 91 Steal 96 Block 42 Offensive Rebound 34 Defensive Rebound 54 Speed 89 Agility 81 Strength 60 Vertical 75Best shooting guard build in NBA 2K25 The best shooting guard build, also known as the three-and-D build, will turn you into everybody\u2019s favorite teammate. You\u2019d be at least adequate in every aspect besides rebounding. You won\u2019t be able to pull off dribble moves like our PG build could, but the shooting and inside scoring is still there; plus you can now dunk on fools left and right. We called this a three-and-D build, so of course, the biggest improvement compared to our point guard is perimeter defense. You get access to three defensive Hall of Fame badges, including everyone\u2019s favorite, Glove, and two more Gold badges to boot. You can defend, you can score, you can dunk, you can even dribble a little\u2014what more can you ask from a shooting guard? Best small forward build in NBA 2K25 Build type - 2-Way Inside-The-Arc Threat Height - 6-feet-7-inches Weight - 190 pounds Wingspan - 7-feet-1-inches Attribute Level Close Shot 85 Driving Layup 95 Driving Dunk 99 Standing Dunk 81 Post Control 40 Mid-Range Shot 78 Three-Point Shot 49 Free Throw 69 Pass Accuracy 49 Ball Handle 74 Speed With Ball 54 Interior Defense 64 Perimeter Defense 85 Steal 94 Block 45 Offensive Rebound 61 Defensive Rebound 53 Speed 73 Agility 76 Strength 75 Vertical 90Best small forward build in NBA 2K25 Small forwards can really be anything, but for our NBA 2K25 build here, we went with an athletic slasher. This small forward was created in a laboratory with the specific purpose of dunking on people\u2019s heads. We managed to squeeze not one, but two Legend badges\u2014just to make sure no defender can stand between us and the rim. In the rare moments when you\u2019re not delivering posters, you\u2019ll have your trusty mid-range jumpshot to bail you out. You\u2019re not exactly a sniper with this build, but your jumper from inside the arc is a serviceable backup. On the other end, you\u2019ll have nearly the same defensive stats as our three-and-D guy, with the additional advantage of being three inches taller and having a five inches wider wingspan. Defend, run the court, dunk\u2014sounds good to us. Best power forward build in NBA 2K25 Build type - 2-Way 3-Level Board Hunter Height - 6-feet-9-inches Weight - 272 pounds Wingspan - 6-feet-11-inches Attribute Level Close Shot 92 Driving Layup 85 Driving Dunk 73 Standing Dunk 48 Post Control 86 Mid-Range Shot 92 Three-Point Shot 83 Free Throw 68 Pass Accuracy 25 Ball Handle 48 Speed With Ball 32 Interior Defense 88 Perimeter Defense 45 Steal 80 Block 84 Offensive Rebound 93 Defensive Rebound 94 Speed 62 Agility 72 Strength 89 Vertical 77Best power forward build in NBA 2K25 Stretching the floor is the name of the game for modern power forwards, and well, we didn\u2019t want to be out of fashion. Our shooting big is by no means a one-trick pony, though. He can score inside, he can play solid interior defense, he can rebound with the best of them, and he\u2019s built like a brick. Considering you'll be playing a lot around the perimeter, we made sure he's quick and agile for the task. Just don\u2019t try to dribble or throw around fancy passes and you\u2019ll be all right. Best center build in NBA 2K25 Build type - 2-Way Inside-The-Arc Threat Height - Seven feet Weight - 253 pounds Wingspan

We thought it fitting to build one such player. Our Shot-Creating 3-Level Threat has nearly maxed out handles and three-pointers, is very good at scoring in the mid-range and in the paint, and is quick and agile enough to be a menace in transition, as well as half court. He can pass too! You won\u2019t be posterizing anyone with this point guard build, and perimeter defense is only average at best, but the trade-off of having nearly every trick in your offensive bag is completely worth it. Best shooting guard build in NBA 2K25 Build type - 2-Way 3-Level Shot Creator Height - 6-feet-4-inches Weight - 180 pounds Wingspan - 6-feet-6-inches Attribute Level Close Shot 86 Driving Layup 86 Driving Dunk 87 Standing Dunk 32 Post Control 33 Mid-Range Shot 86 Three-Point Shot 96 Free Throw 74 Pass Accuracy 59 Ball Handle 77 Speed With Ball 75 Interior Defense 56 Perimeter Defense 91 Steal 96 Block 42 Offensive Rebound 34 Defensive Rebound 54 Speed 89 Agility 81 Strength 60 Vertical 75Best shooting guard build in NBA 2K25 The best shooting guard build, also known as the three-and-D build, will turn you into everybody\u2019s favorite teammate. You\u2019d be at least adequate in every aspect besides rebounding. You won\u2019t be able to pull off dribble moves like our PG build could, but the shooting and inside scoring is still there; plus you can now dunk on fools left and right. We called this a three-and-D build, so of course, the biggest improvement compared to our point guard is perimeter defense. You get access to three defensive Hall of Fame badges, including everyone\u2019s favorite, Glove, and two more Gold badges to boot. You can defend, you can score, you can dunk, you can even dribble a little\u2014what more can you ask from a shooting guard? Best small forward build in NBA 2K25 Build type - 2-Way Inside-The-Arc Threat Height - 6-feet-7-inches Weight - 190 pounds Wingspan - 7-feet-1-inches Attribute Level Close Shot 85 Driving Layup 95 Driving Dunk 99 Standing Dunk 81 Post Control 40 Mid-Range Shot 78 Three-Point Shot 49 Free Throw 69 Pass Accuracy 49 Ball Handle 74 Speed With Ball 54 Interior Defense 64 Perimeter Defense 85 Steal 94 Block 45 Offensive Rebound 61 Defensive Rebound 53 Speed 73 Agility 76 Strength 75 Vertical 90Best small forward build in NBA 2K25 Small forwards can really be anything, but for our NBA 2K25 build here, we went with an athletic slasher. This small forward was created in a laboratory with the specific purpose of dunking on people\u2019s heads. We managed to squeeze not one, but two Legend badges\u2014just to make sure no defender can stand between us and the rim. In the rare moments when you\u2019re not delivering posters, you\u2019ll have your trusty mid-range jumpshot to bail you out. You\u2019re not exactly a sniper with this build, but your jumper from inside the arc is a serviceable backup. On the other end, you\u2019ll have nearly the same defensive stats as our three-and-D guy, with the additional advantage of being three inches taller and having a five inches wider wingspan. Defend, run the court, dunk\u2014sounds good to us. Best power forward build in NBA 2K25 Build type - 2-Way 3-Level Board Hunter Height - 6-feet-9-inches Weight - 272 pounds Wingspan - 6-feet-11-inches Attribute Level Close Shot 92 Driving Layup 85 Driving Dunk 73 Standing Dunk 48 Post Control 86 Mid-Range Shot 92 Three-Point Shot 83 Free Throw 68 Pass Accuracy 25 Ball Handle 48 Speed With Ball 32 Interior Defense 88 Perimeter Defense 45 Steal 80 Block 84 Offensive Rebound 93 Defensive Rebound 94 Speed 62 Agility 72 Strength 89 Vertical 77Best power forward build in NBA 2K25 Stretching the floor is the name of the game for modern power forwards, and well, we didn\u2019t want to be out of fashion. Our shooting big is by no means a one-trick pony, though. He can score inside, he can play solid interior defense, he can rebound with the best of them, and he\u2019s built like a brick. Considering you'll be playing a lot around the perimeter, we made sure he's quick and agile for the task. Just don\u2019t try to dribble or throw around fancy passes and you\u2019ll be all right. Best center build in NBA 2K25 Build type - 2-Way Inside-The-Arc Threat Height - Seven feet Weight - 253 pounds Wingspan
