Dallas Mavericks v New York Knicks
The four position is a growing brand in the NBA and is constantly changing

Our penultimate installment of the best builds in the newly released segment of the NBA 2K dynasty. You can find our suggestion for the best point guard archetypes, best shooting guard archetypes and the best small forward archetypes by clicking on the links provided.

The four position is a growing brand in the NBA and is constantly changing, gone are the days of a pure rebounding power forward and now they are asked to stretch the floor by being able to knock down jumpers and have an inside game while the defensive side of their play still needs to be strong. Here is how you can dominate the court with a power forward this year in NBA 2K19.


#3 Slashing Stretch Four

2018 NBA Finals - Game Four
The slashing stretch four will be an offensive menace inside and out with an attribute cap of 22 and 21 for the 3pt shot and mid-range respectively

Player Creation: Height - 6'10, Weight - 250 Pounds, Wingspan - 90 inches

When you imagine this build, think about the NBA champion Kevin Love, with a little more athleticism and better dunking.

The slashing stretch four will be an offensive menace inside and out with an attribute cap of 22 and 21 for the 3pt shot and mid-range respectively.

Although the cap of dunks looks a bit disappointing this build at this height will be able to unlock all the big man contact dunks, and with a fairly high speed for a big man of this size will be able to get to the lane easily to slam it down.

While this build only gets one Hall Of Fame badge, that being the free throw ace, it recieves a great number of important gold shooting badges such as, pick and popper, limitless range and catch and shoot, rendering it almost impossible to guard while playing a two man game. So find your point guard partner and go dominate in the playground with this build.

#2 Shot Creating Athletic Finisher

Golden State Warriors v New Orleans Pelicans - Game Three
With layups and dunks capped out at 24 and 23 once fully upgraded once you get your player in the right position on the inside

Player Creation: Height - 6'11, Weight - 214 Pounds, Wingspan - 81 inches

The shot creating athletic finisher is most definitely one for those who enjoy being a beast in the paint.

With layups and dunks capped out at 24 and 23 once fully upgraded once you get your player in the right position on the inside, you'll be counting the two points all the way back to the other side of the court.

Topping off these amazing stats with the ability to achieve the Hall Of Fame badges relentless finisher and lob city finisher, combined with all the big man contact dunk packages and most of the athletic contact dunk packages to add to the immense highlight reel you can achieve with this build.

With good top speed for a big man plus a capped 19 ball handling it won't matter where on the floor you receive the ball, you will undoubtedly be able to score and be a threat from anyway.

#3 Rebounding Athletic-Finisher

NBA Awards Show 2018 - Arrivals
The larger wingspan will increase your defense and rebounding stats greatly allowing you to be a beast on that end of the court

Player Creation: Height - 6'11, Weight - 255 Pounds, Wingspan - 91.5 inches

While you won't be able to get too much long range shooting with this build your defending and inside game will be incredible.

The larger wingspan will increase your defense and rebounding stats greatly allowing you to be a beast on that end of the court.

You will be able to have a maxed out vertical while also nearly reaching the top for layups and dunks allowing you to obtain all of the dunk packages while also bringing you four Hall of Fame badges, Relentless Finisher, Posterizer, Putback King and Lob City Finisher will allow you to dominate the paint no matter who gets in your way.

There is no limit to the amount of enjoyment you can have with this build and it would be a big let down if you were to go through all of 2K19 without at least giving this build a go.
