In NBA 2K24, the effectiveness of your center build largely depends on your height and weight preferences. These two factors are important in shaping your center’s attributes, as prioritizing one over the other can enhance specific stats while diminishing those related to the alternative attribute.
Key Takeaways
- Your initial choices play a crucial role in shaping your character build. Specifically, your height, weight, and wingspan selections will determine the maximum potential for your character’s stats in NBA 2K24.
- The way you distribute these stats in NBA 2K24 is essential in unlocking various badges tailored to your center build.

This configuration excels in critical areas such as shot-blocking, dominant inside scoring, and formidable rebounding abilities. However, it does have some limitations, particularly in ball handling and speed, which are hampered by lower attribute ratings.
To start, the remarkable height of this build grants a significant advantage when it comes to swatting away opponent’s shots. Additionally, it boasts exceptional skills in offensive rebounding, making it adept at regaining possession after a missed shot attempt. Moreover, its proficiency in inside scoring ensures that it can efficiently convert those second-chance opportunities into points.
