Devin Booker is the fastest dunk package and you only need an 80 driving dunk. You don’t have to just go down and up to do a contact dunk you can also go up up on the right stick. That’s down up OR up up on the right stick.
I use Athletic one hand off one Baseline reverse off two Hangs off one Athletic hangs off one Malik Monk Westbrook 6’2 93 dunk 80 vert 91 three 92 ball handle 91 swb 85 perimeter 85 steal 85 strength
4:36 i am a small guard and have no issue getting contact dunks. I do have strength in the 70s. It don’t cost a lot fellas PUT STRENGTH ON YOUR GUARDS! U cant be mad at 2k when u got a 30-50 strength on a 6’2 and don’t get u contact animations 😂
When you get a chance go and look at the strength of Ja Morant, Anthony Edwards, and Donavan Mitchell. These small guards get dunks off all the time and their strength is nowhere near 70 strength.
2k has even said that a high strength does not equal ability to finish posterizing dunks. It relies solely on driving dunk and vertical. My build last year had a 94 dunk and 82 Vert, with a 55 strength. I dunked on centers all the time.
I got a 75 strength on my 99 driving dunk 6’4 build but it’s not upgraded yet, so rn I have a 55 strength. I get contact dunks but I can definitely tell strength matters because anybody can pull me out of animations.
Any tips on when to use the other inputs for skill dunks? Up down is the standard but you can also use up up for flashy two handers, down up for flashy one handers or down down for rim hangs. I’m wondering if they are ever better/worse situationally or just different animations. I’ve had a lot of success with both up down and up up but havent really tried the other two in game.
I went 99 dunk and 90 vertical soon as I saw the legend posterizer😭😭but my build still nice I coulda been more versatile but the build nasty regardless. Too in love with the slasher lifestyle I got zero shooting
@@gods90sonFacts cuz it’s still worth 2 pts at the end of the day being able to space the floor and play defense matters way more. If u a pure slasher I don’t even want u on my team cuz u a liability lol
I gotta 6’4 build with 96 driving dunk and I get contacts pretty good bro. I use Jalen Johnson also haha but I have a 73 strength too, imo you can do everything you want on a 6’4(besides big man contacts and major block & rebound badges). I got 91pt, 75 offensive rebound and I got 4 putback and 7 offensive rebounds in a rec game, I even get blocks with 68 block getting high flying denier, at 6’4 with 6’10 wingspan and 220+ pounds. I even do standing dunks I gave em a 45 standing dunk I would’ve went higher but there was no packages available unless you get 65-70 standing dunk but i focused on getting the highest 3 pt I could get while still being able to get blocks
I made my build for the +5 at starter 3 to 99 dunk. Got the 90 vert too ready for them elites lol. 89 middy and 83 3pt 81 dribble and 75 swb also. Idk yet but I do think elite contacts would help get them bigs more often. Last year I made my slasher wit 96 dunk for the elite off one. It made a huge difference.
I made a 96 dunk 6’4. I thought it was worthless at first, then I took off the small contact dunks. It’s been a night and day difference!! Now if i miss a dunk it’s because i miss timed it when before my player wasn’t even attempting to dunk just weak contested layups.
So Im hearing that strength matters, which my 6’8, 96dunk has 73 strength. I dont think its low by any means for a sf, but im still getting taken out of my dunk animation a lot of times. Is strong handle an essential badge for slashers this year like clamp breaker is to slashers for 2k23? Clamp breaker used to make so much difference for my slasher in 23.
I actually broke down the dunk meter logic. If you watch that video then come back to every contact dunk you got you’ll see the dunk meter logic at work this 2k25
Personal preference. I used to not use player packages because they have a mix of Off-Two and Off-One dunks, but some of them do have exclusive dunks that I like to have equipped. I'll typically take a certain package off if I get blocked a little too much with a certain dunk.
I think the dunking this year is trash tbh, i've been dunking with the meter the past 2 years and killing everything from guards to centers consistent. This year i couldn't even get the meter to go off until a recent soft patch and now i get the contact but it says early or late on contact even though i'm hitting the proper timing. I think the pure green meter was way more consistent for me
I have contacts on every build I have made so far except a 5’9. Dunking with last years logic doesn’t work. Even 96 dunk in the restricted zone feels like it’s 30% to even trigger the dunk. I’ve done it forever and can trigger it. I just don’t get the animations. Not a single one of my builds has low strength either. It confuses me this year. Feels like every build I have with dunk is useless.
I dont get it so do i need a 99 dunk overall cus i got a 93 dunk overall on all my builds and on my 6'6 2 way inside out scorer when i say i cant dunk anything i dont know if its me but they give me the most basic dunk animations i think i have either anthony edwards package or jaylen brown and i know in the past 2k to trigger the contact dunk animation you need to flick up and down on the right analog to get the contact animation i dont know what im doing wrong i do know interior plays a big factor but i be aiming and timing my dunks when i want to at the right time idk what it could be but i have a guess like i think maybe fatigue obviously will play a part like maybe if your too gassed you cant really leap like in real life so maybe thats a factor cus sometimes when i wanna dunk my player goes for a layup and hes 6'6 i think 7'0 or 7'1 wingspan
Thanks man. But sometimes instead of doing it I went to make a step up. I have a heavy hand maybe or press the button hard. I don't know maybe sometimes the pressure kicks in coz in a relax mode or m6 career, I pull it up 80% of the time. But in the Rec, it is seldom.
I’m trying to use a Max +1 legend polarizer but I feel like if you forget to add in your attribute to get a 90 vertical And it feels like it doesn’t work anybody else get that?
Anyone try the bell? I find the arrows are hard to poster on. I have no problem on break aways. I have legend lightening launch so I always beat my man easy but that help guy. I have 93 dunk and 80 vert on a 6’3 pg. was thinking of using first crap breaker to make it 96/82 to get elite contact dunks. Thoughts? Oh I do have gold poster. Was debating on HOF if that helps more?
@@StayGassyCheech I have a 90 strength pg and get pulled out of dunks non stop. I only try to dunk when the are hip/restricted. The occasional ego he’s in front me let me hammer on him happens but tbh, it’s the same make rate as the others.

@rafaeljimenez4583 6ft 4 with 99 dunk rating is harder to get consistent greens than like a 6' 9? I don't necessarily miss a ton but it does not seem as easy as last year. 24 was more consistent, this year seems like there's RNG sometimes.

Does strength matter with dunking this year?
Bro thank you for the straight forward and easy to understand tips. Earned my subscription.
slasher gang 🔥
2:04 I’ll do you one better, go 93 driving dunk, cap break for HOF, and THEN tier up for legend. That’s what I did. Make sure that vert 85 tho💯
🗣️🗣️🗣️
or just go 94 and put extra 2 for hof.
My first build I made is a 6’3 PG 6’11 wingspan. ja Morant type build 🔥
i got 88 driving on a 6'8 think i can meter dunk good?
Just the dunking video I needed!! Real one
The one true Slasher is here
hit starter 3 and made a 6'9 with 99 driving, it's disgusting nobody is safe
Yessir I went 93 and I'm going stupid I gotta hit starter 3 myself soon
Shout outs to you guys for hitting that starter 3 big grind 🔥🔥🔥
@@JordanHamilton-gg2ed I'm trying I'm still rookie 4
I’m 6’9 with 91 dunk and 82 vert what should I use cap breakers on? Either get elite contact off 2 or gold posterizer?
99 drivin dunk 90 vert n i regret nothing 😂😂
Surprisingly the build don’t suffer as much as you think

11:28 that beat get me everytime i need it
I made 96 driving dunk 6,7 legend badge a lockdown build. 91 strength 90 ver. 66 3ball. I use stick easy to green.
How much strength do u need to be consistent??
I have a 74 and I'm going stupid so 74 and up to 80 in my opinion
What about 89 drive dunk, which is silver posterizer, but max +1 to get it gold. Is that still get contact dunks pretty often?
I made a 96 dunk 6’4. I thought it was worthless at first, then I took off the small contact dunks. It’s been a night and day difference!! Now if i miss a dunk it’s because i miss timed it when before my player wasn’t even attempting to dunk just weak contested layups.
Bro I was just wide open for 2 dunks back to back and this man lay up instead and missed both, so you saying unequipped the small contact dunks?
@@thegreatone24 yes it has helped me quite a bit
Them straight arm tomahawks off 1 are expensive but nice
Legend brick wall 💪🏾
I used it on HOF. I never used it. I put a guard on his ass. 2k Patched the Joel Embiid hook shot

I have a 6'3 with a 93 Dd I get contact dunk but he is 220 to that's strong for a PG
Put my cap breakers on dunking. 97 driving dunk now. Hof posterior crazy. I don't even need to use the meter half the time.

Dunks this year a crazy I got a 2 way rim attacker he a 87 rn but Killin it
I got a 6'9 with a 96 driving dunk, no regrets so far ! It is so fun dunking on everyone
What strength do you recommend or does it not matter ?
Might be a silly question, but with the nba player dunk packages do you want all 4 equipped at the same time??
Personal preference. I used to not use player packages because they have a mix of Off-Two and Off-One dunks, but some of them do have exclusive dunks that I like to have equipped. I'll typically take a certain package off if I get blocked a little too much with a certain dunk.
I have a more silly question, how do u equip more than 1 dunk page at a time? Is there a certain rating you must be at or something
@@Righteousgeniuscreate a dunk package similar to creating your jump shot.
@@jbw503619 appreciate it bro, I had no idea. I haven’t played 2k in a few years it didn’t use to be like that
96 driving but my player loves to go for a layup Smfh, and mete isn’t consistent, last year that shit was too easy
I have an 89 and my player won’t dunk
was the min very for a 90 dunk at 6’3? i got a 75 is tha solid for animations
if you used a template build like ja morants do you need to to get the dunk animations because you get his for free
Do run any tomahawk or no
Great vid dawg. I have a pg with 89 dunk and 84 strength. It def helps you dunk more when you have higher strength!!

lol Dman "Pause if needed"
Do you think weight/strength affects your ability to get contact dunks?
I always get taken out of animations even with HOF posterizer
I got contacts a lot on my 6'4 pg with a 92 driving dunk
So it matters if you go up then down because I go down up?
Bro you killed this
