The MyPlayer Builder in the current-gen versions of NBA 2K23 gives basketball fans the power to create a baller in almost any manner they see fit. However, there is a catch to the tool. A player's size and attributes will dictate which badges can be upgraded to Hall of Fame. This essentially turns the builder into somewhat of a puzzle game of its own, as players will need to solve for how to get the best possible player. So, to save you an exorbitant amount of time experimenting, this guide will breakdown what we believe is the best MyPlayer build at each position in NBA 2K23. Best point guard (PG) build: Shot Creator Contrary to popular belief, your point guard does not need to be the second coming of Steph Curry. In actuality, the best route is to make a Shot Creator build that equally flourishes on offense and defense. It will allow you to spend a whooping 79 Badge Points, with a majority being used for shooting and playmaking badges. This includes Hall of Fame Guard Up, Hall of Fame Ankle Breaker, and all Gold Tier 3 shooting badges.

It lends players a lengthy, explosive shooter who can also lock down anyone of the same size or smaller at the perimeter. The build comes packaged with 76 possible Badge Points, providing the opportunity to have Hall of Fame Giant Slayer, Hall of Fame Volume Shooter, and Hall of Fame Ankle Braces.

Though, it is still considered well-rounded, as maxing it out will even gift respectable dribbling and shooting abilities. The build offers up to 71 Badge Points, in total, with the most notable being Hall of Fame Giant Slayer, Hall of Fame Pro Touch, and Hall of Fame Ankle Breaker.

Almost every skill in each attribute type holds max ratings in the mid-70s to 80s, and we cannot help but to compare it to former MVP Kevin Durant. You will also have access to 78 Badge Points, including 12 Hall of Fame Badges and 15 Gold Badges.

Coming in at 7'0", this build has the potential to max out a center's Defensive Rebound, Block, and Interior Defense attributes. It also has a fair bit of speed, so the baller won't be as sluggish as Paint Beasts. There are just 49 Badge Points to be earned, but 11 of them have the chance of being Hall of Fame-tier badges, such as Pro Touch, Brick Wall, and Rebound Chaser.
