nba 2k19 guide & tips to optimize the creation of myplayer

the series of nba 2k is known for its realism but also for the complexity of its system of creation and optimization of the characters. indeed, the use of archetypes and badges make this process difficult to master for inexperienced players.

that's why we have created a guide to introduce you to the different elements to take into account in the creation of your player on nba 2k19 (do not hesitate to consult our list of advice for career mode).

the size of your character

this may seem extremely trivial but the size of your player has some importance in the final potential of the player. thus, although the maximum size of a player is limited by its position, it will also affect the attributes (shooting ratings, speed) of the latter.

nba 2k19 archetypes

the archetype is your player's general style of play. this one will have an influence on its basic attributes (its scores of shots, pass, speed) but also on the maximum score of these last ones. thus, a player will not be able to get a high score in 3-point shooting if he has not selected an archetype related to shooting.

note that you will need to choose two archetypes and that the combination of both will influence your notes (starting and maximum) but also the number of badges that your player will have.

table of creation of your character
position	size (inches)	size (cm)	archetype 1	archetype 2
pg (leader)	5'7 to 6'6	170 to 198	pass and dribble defender penetration and finish shooting three point shooting rebounds marker at the station	pass and dribble defender penetration and finish shooting three point shooting rebounds marker at the station
sg (back)	5'10 to 6'8	178 and 203
sf (winger)	6'3 to 6'10	191 and 208
pf (strong winger)	6'5 to 7'0	196 and 213
c (pivot)	6'8 to 7'3	203 to 221

note that the main archetypes in bold are not available for all positions

nba 2k19 badges

badges are also related to your archetype choices and will allow you to unlock specific moves as well as additional skills, which can make the difference when your character gets a high overall rating.

thus, a player with a score of 99 overall ratings, could be worse than another player at the equivalent score, if the latter has more gold and hall of fame badges. our list of the best combinations of archetypes per position also takes into account the number of badges obtained with these choices.

is optimization important?

optimizing your character at all costs is not necessarily important if you only want to play on your side. on the other hand, if you play online, especially in the pro-am mode, it is recommended to choose an optimal combination of archetypes to avoid starting with a handicap from the start.

but this is also a point to watch if you start, since it will be very difficult (if not impossible) to put a character back after investing hundreds of hours of play in a poorly optimized build.

although quite complex and quite rigid (fans of the series complain about the need to play with the best builds), this system nevertheless pushes players to analyze their own style of play but also to understand the operation of the archetypes. and even if it can take a little time (where then use our guides), finding the right combination makes the progression of your character all the more interesting.
