NBA 2K26 Community Builds are builds from the NBA 2K Community that 2K hand-selects to be in the game. All positions are covered with these Community Builds: point guard, shooting, guard, small forward, power forward, and center.
When selecting a Community Build in NBA 2K26, it now automatically includes the original creator’s custom signature animations, jumpshot, and dunk package. This is a change from last year, where you would have to manually add the custom jumpshot and dunk package even if you used the recommended signature moves. By using the build “as is,” you immediately gain access to all these customized player animations.
If you want to submit your own Community Build for NBA 2K26, you can learn how with this guide.

POINT GUARD
Kobe Dreamin
“This all-around threat allows you to be 6’5 while having Gold Posterizer (even before Cap Breakers and Max+2s), Silver Limitless Range, Gold Lightning Launch, and good Perimeter Defense and Steal ratings. This build has been a community favorite since day 1 with nearly 3 MILLION VIEWS across all platforms!” – Kobe Dreamin

SHOOTING GUARD
Joe Knows
“This insane, all-around 6’8 build is “optimized” for Cap Breakers. Use 5 on Ball Handle (86), 4 on Speed With Ball (80), and 2 from specialization on Mid-Range (88). Then, use your future Cap Breakers on Perimeter Defense (99), Speed, and Agility. This is the build Joe Knows plays with on YouTube and Twitch!” – Joe Knows

Baugherrr
“This build can guard any position on the court, no matter the size. Whether it’s getting a stop on the perimeter, stealing lane passes, or shutting down the paint, this is the build for you! We can shoot from anywhere on the court, make elite passes in the half court, rebound, and dunk. This is viable for all games modes.” – Baugherrr

POWER FORWARD
YT-EliteSauceJC
“This build flips the script on the traditional backend PF. It’s a 7 foot cheat code built to stretch the floor, push the ball, snag boards, and dime teammates – with no weaknesses to report. This isn’t just a build, it’s a triple-double threat built for domination in Pro-Am, the REC, and the Park.” – YT-EliteSauceJC

CENTER
JullianShines
“This center build should be used by players that want to be a BIG force in the paint but can still shoot lights out, hit that clutch leaner to end the game, and even do a couple simple dribble moves when needed. This is the build for the centers looking to dominate all aspects of the game and HAVE FUN!” – JullianShines
