Point Guard (PG) – The Floor General

Role & Playstyle

As the Point Guard, you're the primary ball handler and the catalyst for your team's plays. Your mission is to control the game's tempo, distribute the ball effectively, and create scoring opportunities for your teammates, while also being ready to attack when the moment calls for it.

Ideal players for this role include:

• Stephen Curry – perfect for offense-focused PGs
• Chris Paul – ideal for those who balance passing and control
• Damian Lillard – the go-to for clutch shot creation

Controls Breakdown

Dribble/Move: Utilize quick joystick flicks and special moves like crossovers, spins, and hesitation dribbles to carve out space on the court.

Pass: Short taps facilitate quick ball movement, while long holds set up lead passes for your teammates.

Shoot: Master the release timing, especially for three-pointers off the dribble. PGs thrive on jump shot skills and quick release windows.

Skill Button: Often triggers moves like ankle-breakers or fast step-backs, crucial for creating separation from defenders.

Defense as a PG

Steal Button: Rely more on steals than blocks. Use it to disrupt passes or poke the ball loose from opponents.

Positioning: Stay in front of opposing PGs to thwart their drives. Use lateral movement to cut off their angles effectively.

Switching: Be quick to rotate when opponents switch to wings or slashers, ensuring seamless defensive transitions.

Tip: Emphasize vision and speed. Create angles rather than forcing passes. Most turnovers from PGs stem from poor judgment, not mechanics.

In Dunk City Dynasty, each role feels distinct, with controls tailored to your position. As a PG, you're tasked with controlling the game's tempo. As a Center, you're about controlling the space. Understanding your role and mastering the mechanics specific to it is what elevates you from a rookie to a pro.

Whether you're directing plays from the top of the key or swatting shots near the rim, excelling in your role is key to winning games. Choose your position wisely, train with precision, and hone your control inputs to become an unstoppable force on the court.
