Here’s How to Do Dribble Moves in "NBA 2K20" (From Spins to Crossovers)

Who’da thunk one of the funnest parts of NBA 2K20 would be standing still?

This year’s edition of beloved basketball game NBA 2K20 allows you to demonstrate your style while dribbling, taking inspiration from the game’s biggest showponies most elite sportspeople.

NBA 2K20 introduces Signature Dribble Styles as part of its new motion system upgrade. According to its gameplay blog, you’ll get to enjoy LeBron James’ and Kawhi Leonard’s individual "dribble idle stands". You’ll also see Russell Westbrook and Giannis Antetokounmpo sprint differently. And then, players like DeMar DeRozen will apparently move with more "wiggle" than others, whatever the hell that means.

The full list of Signature Dribble Styles includes: Base, Big, Power, Fundamental, Quick, Slasher, Shifty, James Harden, LeBron James, Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant, Jerry West, Dennis Johnson, John Stockton, Allen Iverson, Tim Hardaway, Steve Nash, Jason Kidd, Isiah Thomas, Chris Paul, Damian Lillard, Russell Westbrook, Kyrie Irving, Kemba Walker, Stephen Curry, Paul George, and Kawhi Leonard.

To put the Signature Size-Up Chain into action, you need to flick the right thumbstick while dribbling or facing off against a defender. Just don’t get so cocky you open yourself up to a steal.

Of course, if you still want to know a few basics to unnerve your opponents, we’ve got you covered:

Moves to Memorise

Crossover: You don't have to play as Allen Iverson to pull this off. Move the right thumbstick and then quickly release when dribbling with the right hand.

Between Legs Cross: Want to be a bit speccy? Move the right thumbstick down left then quickly release when dribbling with right hand.

Behind the Back: Okay, now you’re just showing off… and we like it! Move the right thumbstick down and then quickly release.

Spin: Now you see me, now you don’t! Rotate the right thumbstick clockwise and then quickly release when dribbling with right hand.

Half spin: Now you see me, now you… oop, here I am back again! Rotate the right thumbstick in a quarter-circle from right to up and then quickly release when dribbling with right hand.

Now get out there and shake your stuff!
