How to Change Dribble Moves in NBA 2K19

In NBA 2K19, your MyPLAYER can be customized in many ways to suit your style of play. One important aspect of gameplay customization is Dribble Moves. If you’re looking to switch up your dribbling style, this guide will show you how to change your dribble moves and add flair to your ball handling on the court. This tutorial will teach you all you need to know about how to change dribble moves in NBA 2K19.
Access The MyPLAYER Animations Menu
To start, you’ll need to access the MyPLAYER Animations menu. Here’s how you do it:
- Open the Navigation Menu by pressing Start (or Options on your console).
- Select the MyPLAYER option to access the player customization screen.
- From the MyPLAYER screen, select My Animations to enter the animations menu where you can modify various player moves, including dribble animations.
Change Your Dribble Moves on the My Animations Screen
Once you’re in the My Animations menu, look for the Dribble Moves option. This is the section that will allow you to change the ball-handling style of your MyPLAYER. However, keep in mind:
- Dribble Moves aren’t available at the start: When you first begin, you won’t have any dribble moves equipped. To unlock these, you’ll need to visit the Animation Store (located next to My Animations) and purchase them with VC (Virtual Currency). As you level up in the game, you’ll also unlock additional dribble moves for purchase.
Selecting and Equipping Dribble Moves
Here’s how you equip new dribble moves:
- Visit the Animation Store: Navigate to the Animation Store and browse the available dribble moves. You’ll find various options like crossover dribbles, behind-the-back moves, and more. Each type of move costs VC, so make sure you have enough to buy your favorites.
- Equip New Dribble Moves: After purchasing, head back to the My Animations screen. Select the Dribble Moves card, then choose the dribble move you want to equip. You can change different types of dribble moves based on your preferences, such as size-ups, crossovers, and dribble pulls.
- Activate Your Moves: Once you’ve selected your desired moves, they will automatically be available in-game. You can now use these moves during matches to enhance your ball-handling style and gain an edge on the court.
Tips for Using Dribble Moves
- Choose Moves That Match Your Style: If you prefer a fast-paced, quick-play style, go for dribble moves that allow you to move quickly and efficiently. If you like to break ankles with flashy crossovers, look for moves that give you more flashy and complex animations.
- Mix Up Your Moves: Don’t just rely on one type of dribble. Mix up your moves to keep defenders guessing. Combining different types of dribble moves can make you unpredictable and tougher to defend.
- Unlock More as You Level Up: As you progress in the game and level up, more advanced and unique dribble moves will become available for purchase, so keep leveling up to access the best moves.
Changing your dribble moves in NBA 2K19 is a great way to personalize your MyPLAYER’s ball-handling style and make them feel more unique on the court.
