The Playmaking Shot Creator build is easily one of the most popular NBA 2K23 Builds and we're going to show you how to do it here.

Best Point Guard Builds in NBA 2K23 MyCAREER

There's an all-new NBA 2K23 MyCAREER Builder, providing you with several options in terms of builds.

We're going to take a look at a few of the ones that we've seen in circulation this year. The first one we'll start with is the Two-Way Playmaker.

The key to any of the NBA 2K23 MyCAREER Builds is that you should test them out before spending any VC. You can also watch a few YouTube videos to see if these styles work for you.

Our first build is for players that want to be strong on both sides of the ball, with an emphasis of being a playmaker.

Two Way Playmaker Build

The Two Way Playmaker Build focuses on you being great on both sides of the ball in NBA 2K23 MyCAREER.

Too often we see players that primarily focus on building offensive scorers instead of players that can perform on defense. This build fixes that and provides you with good stats on offense and defense.

The body type isn't necessarily important for any NBA 2K23 MyCAREER build, so keep that in mind. This is, however, a 6'4" point guard so if you want to be taller, you'll have to use a different one.

The basic Two Way Playmaker settings are:

  • Height - 6'4"
  • Weight - 220 lbs
  • Wingspan - 7'1"

  • Close Shot - 75
  • Driving Layup - 78
  • Driving Dunk - 80
  • Mid-Range Shooting - 80
  • 3PT Shooting - 85

Maxing out Speed With Ball and Ball Handling is also important. From there, focus on your defensive attributes.

Your NBA 2K23 MyCAREER Badges should turn out to be 22 in Playmaking, 20 in Defense/Rebounding, 16 in Finishing, and 20 in Shooting.

3PT Shot Creator Build

This one is one of our favorites in The City as it provides players with a perimeter shooter, who can knock down shots and create separation.

NBA 2K23 MyCAREER has shown Lonzo Ball to be an example of the 3PT Shot Creator Build and we think it's a pretty good comparison.

Now, this build can be slightly smaller, sitting around 6'2" or 6'3", which for the point guard position in NBA 2K23 MyCAREER is still pretty tall.

The main focus for this build, however, isn't size, it's skill beyond the arc.

  • Height - 6'2" - 6'3"
  • Weight - 185 LBS
  • Wingspan - 6'3"
  • Close Shot - 72
  • Driving Layup - 85
  • Mid-Range Shooting - 85
  • 3PT Shooting - MAX

Under 'Playmaking,' set the pass accuracy to 75 and max out Ball Handle. Speed with Ball can be set at 82.

Keep in mind you won't be a very strong defender since most of your NBA 2K23 MyCAREER attributes will be geared towards offense.

Stephen Curry Build

The Replica Builds are gaining tons of traction as players are discovering these Easter Eggs in NBA 2K23 MyCAREER.

The Stephen Curry Replica Build is a popular one among players that want to shoot efficiently from beyond the arc but there are a few others.
