10 Best Players in NBA Infinite

Being an officially licensed game, NBA Infinite boasts a whopping roster of fan-favorite NBA superstars. What’s more? Each player mimics their real-life counterpart, excelling in the skills and abilities you’d expect. Consequently, some players will perform better than others. So, you have to be extra careful about which players you choose to rank up. In any case, you can hardly go wrong with these best players in NBA Infinite.

10. Rudy Gobert

First up, we have Rudy Gobert, a streamlined player whose Spike Trap exclusive skill is triggered when making a front block. Compared to most players, Rudy Gobert puts up a relatively good defense. However, you’ll definitely find better three-point shooters. He’s also slower than the other players on this list. While most of his stats are average, you might want to consider Gobert solely for slick blocks.

9. Jimmy Butler

Another great NBA Infinite player to consider is Jimmy Butler. While his dominance skill, Drift Zone, is pretty cool, his Relentless Dunk exclusive skill stands out the most. The Drift Zone allows you to use less stamina, specifically, your drifting shot, and the fadeaway costs 60 stamina. Relentless skill, on the other hand, acts as a buff to your teammates. With every pass, Butler can increase your team’s strength for six seconds. And while it sounds like a minor advantage, you can never put a price on a player who can boost your teammates mid-game while also displaying competitive skills on their own. 

8. Trae Young

Next up, we have Trae Young, who’s a bit of an “all eggs in one basket’ kind of player.” He’s pretty small, with a shorter height than the other players. However, he does score three-pointers like nobody’s business. Even as early as Rank One, Trae Young still scores just as well as other players in higher rankings. His passing skill is also relatively decent. Well, unfortunately, that’s all Trae Young excels at. Other players will easily block his driving layups, for example, especially when they’re taller. So, if you’re looking for a well-rounded player, you might want to keep scrolling.

7. Ja Morant

As a beginner, you’ll want to pick Ja Morant for your team. He’s easy to pick up and play, posing a relatively easy learning curve. His player card comes with competitive speed for quick drives to the lane. He also has decent dribbling, so all you need to do is drive by opponents and perform a flawless dunk. On the other hand, Morant is relatively short. He’s not the best when it comes to defense. So, you’ll probably find better players for grabbing rebounds. 

6. Pascal Siakam

Pascal Siakam’s exclusive skill stands out the most. It’s called ‘Force Field D’ and allows you to increase the rate of your dunks and shots at the start of the game. He reduces the rebound attribute of your nearest opponent every time they grab a rebound. What’s more? He also reduces your closest opponent’s field goal percentage every time they make a shot. I mean, it’s too good to be true. Essentially, play better using Pascal Siakam, and you’re guaranteed your opponents will always play catch up.

5. Zion Williamson

Zion Williamson is arguably one of the best players in NBA Infinite, so much so that some players in Early Access complained that Williamson was just way too good. His exclusive skill is the ‘Hop Step Jam,’ practically a winner with pretty low chances to defend or guard against. Williamson boasts a relatively high level of strength and dunking power skill. Significantly, few players can go up against him and stop his dunks. If they try, they’ll lose.

4. Paul George

Alternatively, consider Paul George, an underrated NBA Infinite player who excels at the Brick Wall Baller exclusive skill. Brick Wall Baller allows you to decrease the chances of being screened. What’s more? The chances are further reduced if the opponent is facing your side. Also, George’s block range increases every time you perform one. Screening is a significant skill that you absolutely need to master in NBA Infinite. Without it, it’s an automatic three-pointer or drive to the lane by the opponent. So, by just having Brick Wall Baller alone, it makes Paul George an absolute must-have on your team.

3. Bam Adebayo

Bam Abedayo is also pretty good and worth considering as part of your team. His exclusive skill, Fire Fly, allows you to adapt and level up the playing field. Essentially, any time he goes within 13 feet of an opponent who’s stronger than him, Abedayo’s speed increases as a result. Additionally, his shooting chances also increase against those of the opponent. Movement speed plays a significant role in NBA Infinite. You’ll, at some points, feel some players are moving too slowly or too fast. Exclusive skills like Fire Fly are the nitty-gritty things to watch out for that can drastically tip the scales in your favor if used correctly. 

2. Kevin Durant

Rookie Kevin Durant is a no-brainer player to have on your team, particularly because of how easily you can dominate the court with his card. He’s relatively well-rounded, with a high shooting ability. Regardless of whether he makes three-pointers or mid-range shots, Durant almost always scores. Additionally, he has higher acceleration stats than most players, which allows you to blow past opponents like the wind easily. 

1. Karl-Anthony Towns

Karl-Anthony Towns far exceeds most NBA Infinite players. You may even go as far as to say he’s broken. It also shows with his player card ranking high up in the player market. If you’re looking for a well-rounded player, you’ll want Karl-Anthony Towns on your team. As a center player, he’s way too fast. He’s proficient at grabbing rebounds and performing dunks, as well as shooting accurate three-pointers. He’s not too bad at playing defense, either. While he can dribble and steal, too, you’ll mostly use him for putting up the best offense and defense.
