Point Guard (PG) – The Floor General
Role & Playstyle
The Point Guard is the primary ball handler and the team’s playmaker. Your responsibility is to control the pace of the game, distribute the ball effectively, and create scoring opportunities for your teammates while also being capable of attacking when necessary.
Ideal players:
- Stephen Curry – Perfect for offense-first PGs
- Chris Paul – Balanced in passing, control, and defensive IQ
- Damian Lillard – Elite clutch shot creation and scoring ability
Controls Breakdown
- Dribble/Move: Use quick joystick flicks and signature moves like crossovers, spins, and hesitation dribbles to create space and maintain possession.
- Pass: Short taps enable fast ball movement, while holding the button allows for lead passes to open teammates.
- Shoot: Timing your release is crucial—especially for off-the-dribble threes. PGs benefit greatly from jump shot skills and quick release animations.
- Skill Button: Often activates flashy handles or explosive step-back moves that can break defenders down one-on-one.
Defense as a PG
- Steal Button: Focus on disrupting passing lanes and poking the ball loose rather than attempting blocks.
- Positioning: Stay between your man and the basket, using lateral movement to cut off driving lanes.
- Switching: Rotate quickly when defending against switches to wings or slashers to avoid mismatches.
TIP: Vision and speed are critical for success at the PG position. Create angles, make smart decisions, and avoid forcing risky passes—most turnovers stem from poor judgment, not poor execution.

In *Dunk City Dynasty*, each role feels distinct, and the controls dynamically adapt based on your position. A PG must orchestrate the offense, while a Center must dominate the paint. Knowing your lane—and mastering the mechanics tied to your role—is what separates rookies from elite players.
Whether you're directing traffic from the perimeter or altering shots near the rim, mastering your responsibilities is the key to victory. Choose your role wisely, train accordingly, and refine your control techniques to become a true force at your position.
