Outside of shooting, your ball handling skills are the most important key to success on the court in NBA 2K25. If you want to score as many points as possible and get into scoring position as often as you can, then you’ll need to equip the best dribbling styles and moves. Just like layups and dunks, each dribble animation has a set of stat requirements so you need to keep that in mind when designing a custom player.
