How to Unlock Every Secret Build in NBA 2K24
First thing you’ll want to do is head in to the MyPlayer creator in the MyCareer mode. In here is where you can create custom characters and set their attributes.

Those are all the players you can recreate in game with a secret build. The thing about secret builds, however, is that they are in fact secret. You’ll have to go through a bit of trial and error in the character creator before NBA 2K24 will tell you you’ve unlocked a secret build. They key is to choose a player you want to recreate and then try and match their real life metrics and stats with your choices in game. Select the player’s exact height, weight, wingspan, position, jersey number. These are all things you should be able to find easily online. Then, think about how this player operates on the court and which stats they would have at each level. For example, Stephen Curry is probably going to have a maxed out three point shot stat, but a low strength stat. One thing that can help is also checking out what the stats for those players were in previous iterations of the 2K franchise.
Once you’ve allocated all the attribute points, keep an eye out for a notification. It should say that you’ve built one of the secret builds listed above! That’s how you can unlock any of the secret builds in NBA 2K24. It can be tricky but if you pull it off you’ll be able to play like one of your favorite players!
