ATTACK, DEFEND, AND MASTER EVERY SPECIAL MOVE

Basketball Stars 2022 switches constantly between attacking and defending. When you have the ball, move toward a useful shooting position and decide whether to take a jump shot or approach the basket for a dunk. If a defender gets too close, use movement or a dash to create an opening. When possession changes, let's stay near the opposing player, watch for shooting movements, and steal the ball when you have a chance.

Moreover, special abilities will add another tactical choice. You just need to build your special meter during play, then use the available move when it can help you score or regain control.
