↖ A Tier: Solid Choices

Player	Requirements	Explosiveness	Comments
Kevin Durant	At least 75 Speed with a Ball	Fast initial cross-launch but short-lived. The same-hand speed boost is relatively slow.	Durant's dribble style is a decent choice for taller players or those with attribute allocations elsewhere.
Damian Lillard	Under 6'5" with 90 Speed with a Ball	Adequate same-hand speed boost. Cross launch animation could be better.	A solid option for players meeting the height and speed with ball requirements.
John Morant	Under 6'10" with 85 Speed with a Ball	Average cross launch, slow same-hand speed boost.	John Morant's dribble style is surpassed by others with lower speed and ball requirements.
Augustus	Under 6'10" with 40 Speed with Ball	Great cross launch, slow same-hand speed boost.	An interesting choice for defensive-oriented builds due to its low speed with ball requirement.
Gabby Williams	Under 6'10" with 40 Speed with Ball	Average cross launch, solid same-hand speed boost.	Gabby Williams offers a balanced option for players with low speed and ball ratings.

↖ B Tier: Decent Options

Player	Height Requirement	Speed with Ball Requirement	Explosiveness	Comments
LeBron James	Under 6'10"	75	Wide angle cross launch, decent same-hand speed boost.	LeBron's dribble style is acceptable for those with a 75 Speed with Ball build.
Zach LaVine	Under 6'10"	75	Slightly wide-angle cross launch but a solid same-hand speed boost.	Zach LaVine's dribble style offers a reliable option for eligible players.
Chelsea Gray	Under 6'10"	40	Short-lived cross launch, slow same-hand speed boost.	Chelsea Gray's dribble style is less favourable due to its limited explosiveness.
-	Under 6'10"	40	Good cross launch but an average same-hand speed boost.	This dribble style provides a decent middle-ground option for low-speed builds.

↖ C Tier: Not Recommended

Player	Height	Speed with Ball	Explosiveness	Comments
James Harden	Under 6'10"	75	Slows down after cross launch, slow same-hand speed boost	Harden's dribble style needs improvement
