MyCareer is the most popular game mode in NBA 2K25, allowing players to create unique builds to excel in the NBA, Pro-Am, and The City.
The MyPlayer Builder is quite intricate, featuring 5 positions, 21 attributes, and a wide variety of heights, weights, and wingspans that influence your build’s capabilities. Even one stat being too low can restrict access to optimal jumpshots and dunk packages.
Getting the settings wrong can lead to wasting over 300,000 VC on an ineffective player. Therefore, entering the builder without a clear strategy is not advisable.
To assist you in creating a successful character, we’ve compiled the best builds in NBA 2K25 for each position, detailing their attributes, essential badges, and tips for maximizing performance.
