NBA 2K23 ‘Reinforcements’ Explained
Reinforcements is a fun new 3v3 mode in the Theater that lets users choose 2 CPU teammates and face off against another player and their 2 CPU teammates to go along with their MyPLAYERS.
NBA 2K23 ‘Reinforcements’ Tips
- Choose a roster that complements your MyPLAYER. For example, if you have a paint beast MyPLAYER like Shaq, you could surround him with knock-down three-point shooters in case the opponent double teams in the paint, and so on.
- Don’t forget about defense, choose 2-way CPU players where possible
- Call a screen to force switches
- Try to have good spacing
- Look for favorable matchups
- Trust the CPU teammates – depending on the teammate, their strengths, and how well they’re doing in the game
- This mode is great for grinding for badges because you get to dictate the gameplay more since it’s CPU teammates
