NBA 2K17 Tips

Don't be Predictable

You need to be patient when you are on offense and trying to break down the oppositon. Keep the defence constantly off-balance by dribbling and quick passes while you wait for an opening to develop. As you are doing this you need to ensure you are switching up your offensive strategy and not solely relying on three pointers, dribble drives, post-moves, or long hurls up the court. If keep performing the same moves you will be quickly found out and your opponent will be able to counter easily.

Defending

The key to stopping the other team from scoring in NBA 2K17 is to not be too over-eager when attempting to steal the ball, learn to box out to maximise defensive rebounds, and keep a nice balance between standing off your opponent and getting tight.

Learn to Double Move

You will have a higher percentage in terms of a successful shot if you have enough room to get the ball into the basket without being contested. This is why it is important that you learn to double move which is basically where you confuse the defender by doing some dribbling tactics or ankle breaker moves to create the space you need. The moment you manage to do this successfully you will get to see the line 'Double Move Leading To Score'.

Earn Badges

In NBA 2K17 each player type has a handful of specific badges they can earn and then upgrade from Bronze to Silver, Gold, Hall of Fame, and Grand. Although badges take time to earn they are worthwhile getting because they impart a skill bonus whenever you attempt a relevant action that is connected to the badge. Badges can be earned on any difficulty, you cannot earn them if you simulate your games.
