NBA 2K22 Current Gen Playmaking Shot Creator Build

In NBA 2K22 the current gen builds work much differently than they do on next gen, sticking with the color pie system. We'll start with a Playmaking Shot Creator build for current gen players.

This build works great for guards, but works best on point guards, emulating someone such as Stephen Curry and Damien Lillard.

NBA 2K22 Next Gen Playmaking Shot Creator Build

The best Playmaking Shot Creator build on next gen consoles is considerably different than the current gen build due to no color pie restrictions on your attributes.

One of the most notable differences is in height, which plays a much larger factor in the next gen version of NBA 2K22. The great news is the build still plays similar to John Wall and Stephen Curry.
