With shooting requiring more grinding and skill this year, finishing has become an integral part of the game for the first time in a few years.
And here are the top badges for becoming a top-notch finisher in NBA 2K22:
- Fearless Finisher: Fearless Finisher allows you to finish through contact and still finish. Necessary for slashers and helpful for all builds.
- Rise Up: Increases the chances of dunking in the paint. Necessary for slashing builds and helpful for other builds as well.
- Slithery Finisher: Another top-notch badge that allows you to finish around your defender. Necessary for all builds besides those that only get one to two finishing badge points.
- Posterizer: Top-notch badge for builds that can dunks. Activates multitudes of contact dunks and overall helps you become a highly effective slasher.
- Mouse in the House/Giant Slayer: Mouse in the House is necessary for big men, while Giant Slayer is a necessity for guards. Both help you score in the paint during a mismatch.

Hold the right stick down and hold turbo when going to the basket, should give you a higher chance of dunking it. Let me know how that goes.

You need a 92 to get the elite contact dunks pros are not good enough to get contacts consistently

holding the right stick works but its better to hold square especially if you have more room than usally.

85 or higher will boost your shot percentage

80 should be plenty so long as you take good shots. My PF has an 80 3pt and I shoot just over 70% in my career, and I chuck a lot of them, and I’m shooting high 50% in both park and rec. Sniper and Hot Zone hunter as high as you can get them. If you dribble for your 3’s then Stop and Pop is a great badge too
