So what type of player is Giannis? We know he’s a two-way slashing playmaker. This is something that hasn’t changed over the years, and is much the same in NBA 2K23. We want to build a player that has a high offensive and defensive IQ, and that’s not always easy.
We should always target defense, scoring, and slashing playmaking attributes for a player like Giannis.
The key building blocks for our Giannis build are:
- Height: 6’8″
- Weight: 262 lbs
- Wingspan: 7’6″
- Body Shape: Solid
This body type will allow us to build a player that is solid, but not so heavy that it’ll compromise Physical attributes. 6’8″ might seem short, but anything above this will mean a build that doesn’t have shades of Giannis.
Let’s take a look at our Giannis build’s attributes and badges distribution.
This took some tinkering with and we had to compromise some shooting attributes for Defense/Rebounding, as well as Physicals and Playmaking. But I’m confident that the outcome is a very well-rounded, effective, and powerful point-forward.
The badge distribution gives us a defending and rebounding beast, with great finishing potential and solid playmaking skills.

For the takeovers, I went with “Glass Clearing Dimes” and “Stuff Blocks”. And the end result is a build with shades of the Greek Freek!
