They are the outside shooters, popular for taking shots beyond the three-point line.
But they also have great defensive skills.
Theyre crafty when it comes to taking creative shots.
But they can also provide an assist to another scorer.
Because Shooting Guards may need to dribble the ball down the court, they must have high speed.
In only a matter of seconds, Shooting Guards will shoot and dunk their way to dominating the court.
Here is the best Shooting Guard build inNBA 2K24that should get the ball rolling in no time.
Most shooting guards in the NBA tend to have heights ranging between 6'3 and 6'5.
So, you probably want to crank up the height of your shooting guard.
Furthermore, taller shooting guards contest jump shots more easily at the rim.
Vice versa, its harder to contest theirs, thanks to a higher release point.
They also defend much better and can make all the difference between winning and losing.
Weight, on the other hand, would give a shooting guard a better advantage in post-play and rebounding.
Generally, heaviness helps with maintaining good posture and speed.
As well as making passes and assists around and over taller defenders.
Youll want to focus more on perfecting your mid-range, three-point, and free-throw shots.
With driving dunks, setting a higher stat doesnt always translate to performing better dunks.
Youll want to practice and perfect your dunks to truly take effect.
As well as prioritize protecting the ball while dunking.
Also, a high speed should help you perform faster, more elusive dunks.
Overall, though, performing a perfect driving dunk is great for finishing swift counterattacks with style.
Standing dunks arent a deal-breaker for shooting guards, as is post-control.

However, shooting guards dont necessarily need to block.
Their focus is to shoot and put up a good perimeter defense.
The same goes for offensive rebounding.
Speed will determine how quickly your shooting guard is on their feet.
They need to run swiftly and sprint around the court like the wind.
They need to maneuver easily on the field and speed away from opponents.
Hand in hand is acceleration, which is even more vital than speed.
A high acceleration cranks up the speed of your shooting guard in short bursts or sprints when dribbling.
When you combine high speed and acceleration, it helps create more opportunities for the shooting guard to score.
