Choosing the chart that is predominantly yellow and green will focus on shooting and playmaking. Max shooting ranges from 84-90 and max playmaking ranges from 77-88.
For the Physical Profile, you’ll want the pink and purple chart in order to give your player good speed, agility and vertical.
In Potential Attributes, max out shooting, playmaking, close shot, driving layup, driving dunk, perimeter defense, lateral quickness, then allocate the rest of the points between standing dunk and steal.
The choices for Height, Weight, and Wingspan focus on speed and shooting, adding +4 to most attributes.
Last but not least, choosing Spot Up Shooter improves shots from deep, especially in catch and shoot situations.

Takeover | Spot Up Shooter |
When selecting a Shooting Guard build, you’ll be focusing on Finishing and Shooting.
Select the green and blue skill breakdown pie chart and the max Finishing ranges from 83-90 (58 Standing Dunk) and Shooting ranges from 80-90.
Choose the pie chart that has an overall even flow for the Physical Profile.
In Potential Attributes, Max out shooting, Close Shot, Driving Layup, Driving Dunk, Ball Handling, Post Moves, Perimeter Defense, Lateral Quickness and Steal, while allocating points to passing.
Just about all the defaults are good in Height, Weight, and Wingspan, as they don’t take points away from any category and keep things consistent across the board.
Again, choose Spot Up Shooter to improve shots, especially when you catch and shoot.

Personal preference for this builds Takeover is Slasher, which gives an extra boost to finishing at the rim in traffic and the ability to get past the defense.

The Power Forward Build is a mishmash of Finishing and Defense & Rebounding.
Choose the mostly blue and red Skill Breakdown and it will result in Max Finishing stats that range between 79-89, and Defense/Rebounding that is between 68-86.
Choose Strength and Verticality when given the choice in the Physical Profile. For your Power Forward’s Potential Attributes:

Your Physical Profile Center allocation should be the pie chart that is even for all three categories.
Max out all Def/Reb in Potential attributes, as well as Standing Dunk, Post Hook, Close Shot, Post Move. Spend the rest between mid-range and ball handling.
Your Center is going to be tall and strong with the Height, Weight, and Wingspan provided above.
