In NBA 2K23 MyTEAM, you choose the boosts by crafting your own Shoe Cards in the MT Shoe Lab! For example, if you have a player who needs a boost in his Three-Point Shot ability and his Acceleration, then you can apply those attributes to the shoe and then assign the shoe to the player. What are the best shoe boosts to add to a player? We list the best shoe boosts for all players in NBA 2K23 MyTEAM. These do not factor in coach boosts. If you have any questions or other suggestions, please let us know.
