On to our next instalment of best builds in the newly released segment of the NBA 2K dynasty. You can find our suggestion for the best point guard archetypes in the link here, but now onto the next position, Shooting Guard.

The two-guard can be a deadly position on a basketball court, historically it's one of the main and best scorers of a team's lineup and it has given us legends such as the G.O.A.T Michael Jordan and the legend Kobe Bryant. We'll now take a look at how you can reach these same great heights as a shooting guard in MyCareer 2K19.

3. Sharpshooting Shot Creator

Player Creation: Height - 6'1, Weight - 170 Pounds, Wingspan - 75.5 inches

This will be one of the most all rounded archetypes possible as a guard in the new 2K, you'll not only become a deadly passer but also a deadly shooter from all over the court with this build.

Keeping this build at 6'2 allows for the speed boost ability which will be key during MyCareer and if you take your pro to the playground, this ability combined with a maxed out midrange, a great 3pt shot capping at 22 upgrades and while also having a good inside game with 19 attribute upgrades available.

These great stats come with four Hall of Fame badges, the difficult shots, mid-range deadeye, tireless scorer and tear dropper which will make you unstoppable on the court and able to knock down heavily contested shots whenever you please.

Player Creation: Height - 6'4, Weight - 185 Pounds, Wingspan - 77.3 inches

An amazing archetype if you don't mind the lower 3pt rating compared to our other two builds here, but what it lacks in long range shooting it gains in basically every other category.

At 6'3" this build will be able to achieve both the speed boost ability and also be able to unlock all of the athletic dunk packages. With great ball handling maxing out at 20 you will no doubt be able to get past your defender and slam it down at the hoop in multiple different ways.

Only having two Hall of Fame badges is what drops this build to second on the list but the pure athleticism of this build along with its above average passing and shooting more than makes up for this and will see you dominate on the court this year in NBA2K.

The pure Shot Creator is always a fan favourite of NBA2K players and this year looks to be no different.

The high acceleration allows for potentially the fastest first step on any archetype you'll receive, allowing you to quickly find space against any defender, whether it's to drive to the hoop or step back for a fade.

The ability to find space where there is none makes this build a nightmare for the opposition, you'll be able to knock down shots from everywhere with relatively high mid range and 3pt shooting, capping out at max mid range and 20 3pt shooting, while still having impressive layups at 21 attribute upgrades.

This build will be tough to top as it can keep up with anyone on the defensive end and can then go and find a bucket whenever it's needed on the other end of the court.
