A-Tier

Brick Wall
Boxout Beast
Pick Dodger
94 Feet (NEW)

94 Feet will improve the all-court pressing for your player. Brick Wall and Boxout Beast are useful too. With the first one, your player will improve his effectiveness of screens, while Boxout Beast will help you win the best defensive and offensive rebounding positions.

B-Tier

Pogo Stick
Right Stick Ripper (NEW)
Fast Feet (NEW)

Finally in B-Tier, you’ll find Pogo Stick which allows players to quickly go back up for another jump upon landing, and the last two new badges: Right Stick Ripper and Fast Feet.
