No. 1 NBA 2K23 Best Lockdown Build

The first two are very similar but they're just they're straight lockdowns. You're going to be going with the point guard position, height is 6’7, your weight is going to be 180 pounds and your wingspan is going to be 7’4. The reason for this is that you want to be fast, you want to have decent speed. You're 6’7 as it is, if you try to make a build with a lot of strength on a lockdown build, it's just not going to be that good. Especially if you're this tall because you're going to get the super low speed and you don't want that when you have to guard these quick guards and stage. This first NBA2K23 best lockdown build is going to be able to get contact dunks. This build will be able to dribble a little bit and it's going to get hall of fame defensive stats everywhere and you're going to have pretty good physicals.

No.2 NBA 2K23 Best Lockdown Build

For height, we're going to go 6’6, our weight is going to go up to 230, and then our wingspan's going to go up to 7’3. The difference with this build in the last build is that this build does not even get have a chance at getting like contact dunk. It can dunk and it can lay up a little bit but this build is not a finishing build at all. You have an 80 driving dunk and that's just for quick drops. You have 32 defensive badges, the badge count is just too crazy and way too overpowered especially as a lockdown build. This is just insane 32 badges on defense are literally broken! No one is going to be able to get open on you. These two lockdown builds are both going to be game-breaking, and both going to be straight clamps. It's just really what you want and what you want to have on your build. If you do not care about contacts and dribbling, go with this the best 2K23 lockdown build.
