The Post Control attribute along with the strength and size of the player will also play a part in whether the player will be able to successfully defend against opponents in-game. The Post Control attribute is also useful for players looking to acquire various finishing badges such as Backdown Punisher, Dream Shake, Dropstepper and Post Spin Technician. As all the above attributes are generally played at the Post position, the Post Control attribute allows gamers to have a better chance of pulling off the above moves, with an 85+ rating allowing gamers to pull off virtually all the Post Control moves that are possible in the game.

Additionally, players who have been regularly playing Online games have also reported that a good post control rating when combined with Post Shot Daggers and Post Scorer Takeovers allows them to virtually be unstoppable with their hook shots, which is one of the most common shooting techniques in NBA 2K22.

Hence, a Post Control rating of 85 should be a priority for gamers looking to play as a big man.
