8 builds shown. Start with the court you play, then choose the job your lineup still needs.
PG · Creator
Best when
Creating shots and organizing team offense on the 2s and 3s courts.
Main strengths
Speed, ball handling, passing, and shot creation.
Trade-off
The small frame and low strength are poor fits for 1v1 defense.
SF / ISO · Creator
Best when
Handling slashers and post scorers without giving up self-created offense.
Main strengths
Size, mid-range pressure, driving dunk, and two-way coverage.
Trade-off
The balanced frame costs more points than a small specialist and requires careful allocation.
SF / Wing · Creator
Best when
Players who want one tall creator for shooting, passing, dribbling, finishing, switching, rim help, and secondary rebounding.
Main strengths
Length, downhill speed, shot creation, contact finishing, rim protection, and flexible passing.
Trade-off
It gives up specialist ceilings and deliberately avoids investing in its low Steal cap.
SF / Two-Way · Creator
Best when
Punishing high perimeter pressure with blowbys and driving dunks while retaining enough passing for team modes.
Main strengths
89 Driving Dunk, 83 Three, 96 Perimeter Defense, 92 Lateral Speed, 86 Block, and Highlight Reel takeover.
Trade-off
Base Steal and Rebound ratings make it dependent on positioning, contests, and a rebounding teammate.
SG · Defender
Best when
Taking the hardest guard matchup and spacing from the corner.
Main strengths
Speed, perimeter defense, steal, screen navigation, and spot-up shooting.
Trade-off
Minimal driving dunk and limited self-creation make it a complementary build.
PF · Big
Best when
Screening, popping or slipping, passing after rebounds, and defending switches.
Main strengths
Mobility, versatile defense, interior finishing, spacing, and passing.
Trade-off
It gives up the center's maximum rebounding and standing-dunk ceiling.
C · Big
Best when
Controlling rebounds, setting screens, and finishing inside beside a guard.
Main strengths
93 Standing Dunk, 99 Rebound, strength, and rim protection.
Trade-off
Too slow for 3v3 and not designed for 1v1.
C / Post · Big
Best when
Backdowns, post fades, standing finishes, and punishing paint-sitting defenders in 1v1.
Main strengths
90 Standing Dunk, 90 Post Control, 84 Mid, 82 Three, and 91 Strength.
Trade-off
Base rebound, passing, steal, and ball handle make it a scoring specialist rather than a team-mode center.

1V1 BUILD GUIDE
Choose PG + Center, PG + PF, or Two-Way Wing + Big, then learn each player's job against drop coverage, traps, and switches.
2V2 LINEUP GUIDE
Compare five three-player lineups, assign the primary creator, on-ball defender, and big, then learn spacing, screen, help-defense, and late-game reads.
3V3 LINEUP GUIDE
A small primary creator with 86 Driving Layup, 91 Mid-Range, 90 Three-Point, 85 Moving Shot, 81 Pass Accuracy, 96 Ball Handle, 95 Speed, 90 Acceleration and 90 Stamina. The creator uses Smooth Op or Knockdown Shooter and funds steals and screen navigation instead of interior size.
PG · CREATOR
The 6'7 / 6'7 / 180 Built frame combines 86 Ball Handle, 71 Pass Accuracy, 85 Perimeter Defense, 83 Lateral Speed and 60 Interior Defense. One version keeps a very high Moving Shot for a Two-Way Slashing Creator; the other moves those points into Driving Dunk for an Unorthodox Two-Way.
SG · SHOT CREATOR
The 6'10 / 6'10 / 200 Slim wing uses 95 Driving Dunk, 86 Driving Layup, 85 Mid-Range, 82 Three-Point, 80 Ball Handle, 71 Pass Accuracy, 90 Perimeter Defense, 84 Interior Defense, 89 Block, 88 Speed and 96 Vertical. Knockdown Shooter extends a build already strongest at the rim and on defense.
SF · FINISHER + DEFENDER
The 7'0 / 7'0 / 230 Normal frame targets 90 Driving Dunk, 90 Standing Dunk, 81 Layup, 83 Three-Point, 80 Post Control, 81 Pass Accuracy, 85 Interior, 90 Perimeter, 90 Block and 90 Rebound. Glue Guy Lockdown supports a versatile 2v2 big that can screen, pass, space and switch.
PF · VERSATILE BIG
The interior center baseline uses 95 Standing Dunk, 80 Driving Dunk, 70 Layup, 94 Post Control, 89 Pass Accuracy, 93 Interior Defense, 96 Block, 97 Rebound, 95 Strength and 90 Stamina. Diesel takeover reinforces post strength and standing finishes, while low perimeter mobility remains the clear trade-off.
C · INTERIOR + PASSING
This 7'0 / 270 / Bulky post big targets 75 Close Shot, 89 Standing Dunk, 96 Post Control, 88 Interior Defense, about 94 Block, 90 Rebound, 88 Stamina and strong maximum Strength. Use Diesel for repeatable post power or Rim Rocker beside a teammate. Diamond Rebound Chaser, Post Lockdown and Trampoline make this a better possession-control option than a no-rebound 1v1 scorer.
POST + REBOUND · 2V2 / 3V3
The 6'10 / 6'11 / minimum-weight / Narrow route uses Playmaking Anomaly to reach 91 Ball Handle and 93 Speed. Spoken targets include 61 Close Shot, 91 Driving Layup, 90 Driving Dunk, 73 Interior Defense, max Perimeter Defense, Lateral Speed and Block, 94 Stamina, 89 Acceleration, max Vertical and 66 Strength. Highlight Reel supports the rim-running identity, but base Pass Accuracy makes it a poor primary team facilitator.
FINISH + HANDLE + DEFEND
The 6'10 / 7'0 / 275 / Bulky power forward uses an 83 Three-Point rating, strong interior defense and post scoring to punish defenders who sit in the paint. The creator explicitly leaves Rebound at base, so treat it as a 1v1 shooting big—not a general-purpose center for lineups that depend on controlling misses.
83 THREE · NO REBOUND

How to choose between the eight setups by mode, matchup, and lineup role.
A good allocation still depends on knowing the shot, pass, dunk, dribble, and defensive inputs for your platform.
