In NBA 2K25, the center builds can significantly impact, especially in competitive 5v5 scenarios. Whether you prefer an inside center, a popper, or a hybrid build, there's a center build for you.

The Inside Center Build 
Height: 7 feet   
Weight: Balanced for strength and agility   
Wingspan: Max wingspan for rebounding and shot-blocking  

Attributes: 
- Pass Accuracy: 93 for Hall of Fame Break Starter 
- Rebounding: 99 to get the Legend Rebound Chaser badge 
- Strength: 91 for Gold Brick Wall 
- Vertical: 70+ (aim for around 78) to unlock pro and elite big man contact dunks 
- Standing Dunk: 90 for Gold Rise Up 
- Driving Dunk: 89 (for pro contact dunks off one and two feet) 
- Block: 78 for Bronze Anchor 
- Speed: 66, enough to keep up defensively 
- Steal: 70 for Bronze Interceptor (higher steal helps with passing lanes) 
- Free Throw: 64 (put extra points here to avoid raising mid-range shooting unnecessarily)

Playstyle: This build is ideal for traditional 5v5 games. It’s strong in the paint, has great rebounding ability, and offers passing support with Hall of Fame Break Starter. It’s not suited for smaller courts or fast-paced gameplay like 3v3 Park games, where speed and agility are more critical.

The Popper Build 
Height: 7 feet   
Wingspan: Max for blocking and rebounding   
Playstyle: Balanced with a focus on shooting

Attributes: 
- Rebounding: 99 for Legend Rebound Chaser 
- Three-Point Shot: 74 (good shooting ability for a center) 
- Mid-Range Shot: 78 for Silver Set Shot Specialist 
- Pass Accuracy: Lowered from Hall of Fame to Gold Break Starter to balance out shooting and rebounding 
- Block: 78 for Bronze Anchor 
- Steal: 70 for Bronze Interceptor 
- Strength: 91 for Gold Brick Wall 
- Speed: 68 for better agility on defense

Playstyle: This build is ideal for spacing the floor in 5v5 settings. It offers a good mix of shooting and inside presence. The popper build allows you to help spread the defense with a capable three-point shot while still being a dominant rebounder and rim protector.

The Hybrid Popper/Post Scorer Build 
Height: 7 feet   
Wingspan: Max for defensive purposes   
Playstyle: Mix of shooting, rebounding, and post-scoring

Attributes: 
- Rebounding: 99 for Legend Rebound Chaser 
- Pass Accuracy: Lowered to accommodate other attributes, maintaining Gold Break Starter 
- Post Control: 85 for Gold Post Powerhouse (better drop steps and spins) 
- Strength: 91 for Gold Brick Wall 
- Vertical: Lowered to around 74 to balance other attributes 
- Block: 78 for Bronze Anchor 
- Steal: 70 for Bronze Interceptor

Playstyle: This build is versatile, allowing you to shoot from mid-range, score inside using post moves, and dominate the boards. It’s more offensively capable than a pure inside build and retains solid defensive and rebounding skills.

Tips: 
- Rebounding: High rebounding stats and verticals are crucial for securing boards. 
- Defense: Bronze Anchor and adequate strength are essential for interior defense. 
- Offense: Adjust driving dunk and post control based on your preference for slashing or post-scoring. 
- Adaptability: Tweak these templates to fit your specific playstyle, whether you're focusing on passing, scoring, or defense.

These builds cater to different playstyles, whether you want to dominate inside, space the floor with shooting, or have a versatile all-around game. The 7-foot height is a sweet spot that provides enough size for defense and rebounding while maintaining mobility.
