8. San Antonio Spurs

Defense is one of the harder skills to master in the NBA 2K games. Especially perimeter defense.

Offensive players always seem to have the edge, and keeping a ball handler in front of you can be tricky. This is why the basketball gods created Kawhi Leonard. “The Claw” is one of the few players in 2K who gives you a chance at shutting down perimeter players when you’re in control.

The Spurs are stacked with great jump shooters, so ball movement on offense is the key here.  Keep rotating the ball around until you find an open shooter; chances are they’ll make the shot.

If you like a lot of passing on offense, or revel in frustrating your opponent by shutting down their best offensive weapon, the Spurs are the team for you.
