5. Glass Cleaning Center

Become the King of rebounds with this build. The Inside will be your domain and you will gobble up any missed shot with this player. This build is as traditional of a center as possible and probably the single most viable build for a big man.

If you choose to go for this build, you are going for a simple role with a player that focuses purely on the inside. This player will rebound, score open dunks and layups of pick and roll, cuts, lobs, and transition, and will be a stalwart presence as a rim protector in the paint. It is limited on every other end on purpose as you use this build to focus on all the inside parts of the game.

What a Glass Cleaning Center Excels In:

Dominant Roll man in the pick and roll setting hard screens and getting easy buckets inside
Rim Protector making no shot in the paint easy
Aerial supremacy with putbacks and poked balls
Underrated post scorer as well
Rebounds the ball on both ends with ease getting easy putbacks or setting up transition plays on offense.

Build details:

6’10
240lbs
Max shoulder width
Glass Cleaner Archetype

4. Playmaking 6’7 Point guard

Tall Point guards are still viable. While playmaking is a controversial skill tree to use as it’s not the typical high-scoring build people go for, it has its worth both in-game and in the park.

This build is an all-around type of build. In the park and online, the dimer gets your teammates shot to go in with ease. This build is the one you use if you really trust your teammates as the bulk of your job is playmaking for them. Your scoring always comes secondary with decent a jump shot and some inside finishing on layups and dunks

What a Tall Playmaking point guard excels in:

Pick and rolls are almost guaranteed buckets all the time whether it's an open shooter or a feed to the roll man.
Transition weapon whether taking it in himself or throwing an easy pass to an open running teammate.
Probably one of the best overall defenders you could possibly make.
Matchup nightmare towering over every other guard build.
Has the best handles around with how shifty they can be and how easy they are to string together.

Build details:

6’7 height
Playmaking archetype
Point Guard
180 lbs

3. Point Forward Small Forward

Set your teammates up like point guards, and have the size of a big man. These are all the things you get when you go for this build. All around terror on the court and hard to contain.Versatile and useful in so many situations.

This is essentially a Lebron James-type player. You get inside scoring off of bullying drives and dunks, and you pass it out to open teammates for either easy scores inside or open shots from the perimeter. This build is also pretty good all around with a serviceable jumper and good overall defense for blocks steals etc.

What a Point Forward Small Forward Excels In:

Transition machine Making any fastbreak opportunity an easy score.
Defense is highly underrated keeping up with both big men and guards on the perimeter.
Underrated Drive game with inside scores.
Has the shifty handles of a point guard in the body of a typical NBA big man.
Has a deep bag for whatever your team needs.

Build details:

6’9 height
225 lbs
Small Forward with Point Forward archetype

2. Sharpshooter Shooting guard

I have been saying this for every 2K and it continues to hold true, 3-pointers are worth more than 2. This year is another year that proves the point with shooting continuing to be an aspect of the game that gets you consistent scoring.

Sharpshooter continues to be a very 1-dimensional type of build, The fact being a sharpshooter leaves you with a lot of skills and being below average doesn't matter as much because at the end of the day you are still a monster from 3 that cannot be stopped. Simply catch the ball from deep at fire simple as that.

What a SharpshooterExcels In:

Moving shots actually go in with this build with how consistent it is.
Catch-and-shoot threes are pretty much-given shots as long as they aren't heavily contested
Shot creation is also in this build’s bag with easy shots from mid-range also possible with some space creation.
Underrated in every other aspect especially defense.
The best 3-point scoring build meaning he is also the best scoring build you can possibly make.

Build details:

6’5 height
Sharpshooter archetype
Shooting Guard
190 lbs

1. Shot Creator Point Guard

The most dominant build in the game this year. A shot-creating Point guard is just the most unstoppable force on the offensive end of this game being pretty much unguardable at all times.

Choosing a shot-creating point guard just lets you choose your own poison for how you want to score. You can shot create with dribble moves to create space for open middys. YOu can also catch and shoot at a high clip, Iso and break down your defender for an easy score inside and just be an overall pest no matter how you score. Being able to do so many things at such an elite rate is why this is the best build you can possibly make

What Build Name Excels In:

Call your own number and score with ease on every opportunity you feel like.
Ball handling is barely below playmaking builds as you also have a deadly dribble game to get you open scores and passes
Shooting is paired with inside finished at a high clip.
Has underrated speed as well making fast breaks a treat.
An all-around offensive weapon even making post-fades possible.

Build details:

6’3 height
185 lbs
Point guard
Shot Creator Archetype

5. Stretch 4 Power forward (The quintessential build for a PF)

If you still wanna play the 4 in 2K you need this build. With a game predicated on the outside, this build gets open looks and jumpers with ease, especially with his size.

This is the best build if you specifically want a power forward on the team. He will give you shooting, A light passing game, and is still passable on inside defense with his length.

4. 2-Way Small Forward ( A do-it-all build)

This is the Only Small Forward build you should be using on NBA 2k16. A demon on both the offensive end and the defensive side too.

A Small Forward is built and meant to be the best all-around player. He has the defense, offense, ball handling, playmaking, and everything in between. Once again this is a build with no real weakness and some decent strengths, far from the best build in the game but it’s far from being non-viable.

What the 2 Way Small Forward Excels In:

All Around Weapon from the perimeter, knockdown, and lights out when taking a jumper
Locks up any 1 on 1 matchup
Balanced at all aspects of the game.
Out rebounds any guard matchup
Keeps up with the guards' speed, but doesn't get bullied by big men with their strength

3. Paint Beast Center

Classic Big Man Build. A build that's been working since the early Mycareer days and since the 60s in the NBA, basketball just comes easy to big builds.

If you know and love the post-up game on 2K use this, and of course, this build is pretty grounded in the paint, so it's the build you use when you want high-percentage shots and defense focusing on inside blocks and contests.

What the Center Excels In:

Dunks and Layup inside in the point
Pick and roll game comes easy with lobs and feed inside
No easy layups or dunks as long as he's in the play
Can also have a fairly reliable Middy
If you’re a smart enough player keeping up on the perimeter isn't impossible

7’3 Height
Inside scoring style
300 lbs
7’8 wingspan
Upgrade everything except playmaking

2. Sharpshooting Shooting Guard

With Steph Curry revolutionizing the 3-point game, you know a build dedicated to shooting would be incoming and this is that build.

Shooting is incredibly important and has always been a staple in 2k games. This build in particular is the best shooting guard you can make, which is a build purely focused on getting shots. Shooting is such an important part of this year’s game so why not focus on it?

What a Sharpshooter Excels In:

Arguably the best shooting build you can make in the game
Defense keeps a majority of perimeter players in check.
A scary player on offense always being a problem from everywhere on the court

Attributes on everything except rebounding

1. All Around Point Guard

Just like in real life, if you wanna dominate you are gonna want a really good point guard.

The point guard is the all-around star in the NBA. The dominant teams of today are led by versatile pgs and this 2K is no exception. A do-it-all player is what you'll get and dominate with if you choose to go with this build.

What Build Name Excels In:

Overall wise is the best shooting possible from a Myplayer.
A pest on the perimeter getting pickpocket steals, passing lane steals, and just contesting and keeping up well.
The fastest player on the court allowing easy and flashy transition scores
All of this scoring also comes with the edge when it comes to passing and playmaking being an absolute dimer as well.
The one weakness he has is rebounding which is not even all that important as a point guard.

Build details:

6’3 height
Outside scoring
185 lbs
6’4 Wing span
