Best Badges for Power Forward in NBA 2K24
Badges hold significant importance in any player build, as they directly influence the player’s attributes. From the list of badges mentioned in our builds, we’ve selected the top ones for you.
Below, you’ll find concise explanations for these standout badges tailored for Power Forward position builds.
Posterizer
For a Power Forward player, the ability to receive passes from Centers and go for dunking shots is essential. With this in consideration, the Posterizer badge stands out as one of the premier Finishing badges for this role, as it significantly improves the player’s dunking prowess. This badge proves particularly effective when facing off against opposing defenders.
Break Starter
Well, the Power Forwards mostly play in the center and around the paint but for some defensive scenarios, they do come back near the rim. On the defense, as long as they have the ball, they must go for a deep outlet pass to shift the pressure on the opponent’s side. Break Starter is very helpful in this regard as this playmaking badge specifically targets the accuracy of the deep outlet passes.
Anchor
Protecting the rim must be the highest priority task in the basketball game. With the help of this badge, we can set the defense of the rim at a high level. Additionally, the defensive Anchor badge also enhances the player’s ability to resist block shots as well.
