so if my guy is a sharpshooter can i still get ankle breaker ?
you can only get it bronze
if you are a playmaker then you can upgrade it more but if you aren’t a playmaker then only bronze
You could also be a point forward, not just a playmaker to upgrade to HoF ankle breaker
and shot creator’
No
Yes anyone can get any badge even my stretch big got ankle beaker on bronze
You can get the badge but only to bronze if your not a point forward/playmaker
My PG is a slasher. But he can still at least get a bronze ankle breaker ryt?
ikr
You
will but u can’t upgrade it
What about if your a shooting guard 88 overall and lay making can still get the badge???????????
I don’t believe so I made a new point forward and he can get it hall of fame but any sharpshooters or center swipl get it bronze and only bronze
It’s depending on what shooting guard you are
Ima small forward and I got it to HoF
thats what i am im not sure, but this really helped me, and i think we can.
yes but you cant upgrade it
Shot creators can get it too
No
You dont only have to get assist
Yes you can still break ankles with a sharp you can’t really make them fall but if u have the right moves they can stumble r step back
Yes
Do I need to have my ball control at 75 to get the badge
Yeah but you can only get it bronze
Ok so I’m a 81 overall playmaker and I’ve got over 350+ double move leading to score assists (because that’s all I’ve done from the beginning of my career) but yet I don’t have dimer or ankle breaker can anyone explain?
Needs to be 200 in 1 season
im having the same problem
Have you been passing it off
They have to be double moves to an assist
how do you check how many double moves leading to scores you have?
You cant
He dumb bro
it has to be in a 30 game span
same to this day i dont have it i made a point forward and i havent got it on bronze i hope i get dimer because if i dont im going to contact 2k about it beacause i didnt do this grinding for nothing…
For dimmer you need 300 assist in a 30 game span
Hi! Thanks for your “How to”. It’s quite helpful!
I did everything you did, but hardly did 300 passes after double move. Could it be 250, I don’t know, but sure not 300.
Same goes to Alley-oop passer, which was the easy one.
Anyway, keep up with the site!
Can sharpshooter get any type of ankle breakers
yes
It doesn’t have to be assist
We can get it by scoring and not get the assist
ty for telling me
@Chris Yeah you can, but it will only be bronze
so what you do is pray to harambe, and what you have to say is; “give me the power to ankle break” and then all you do is start twerking and ride your controller furiously, then the most important part: turn your console off, go buy a pc then you are a pro.
bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh xD
You don’t have to get an assist. that is Wrong. You can get the badge by just doing a double move and then just shoot. The only reason an assist is useful is for trying to get dimer at the same time as ankle breaker. But please understand that it is much easier to get “double move leading to score” by just simply pressing (down, down)
and then shooting. (rookie difficulty)
How many times though
No it’s not… if u just can get a double move assist.. it unlocks it faster. Trust me I unlocked it in less than 30 minutes and I didn’t unlock dimer
how many time do i have to do it to get it hall of fame
Do a half spin then assist
i am small forward and can upgrade it do i have to make assists
Is it the same for point forwards to upgrade?
You’re an L “point forward” you gotta go with that cuz.
How many assist to get hall of fame ankle breaker
Do your assists of double move and shots made off double move add together? Example: 100 shots made off double move and 100 assists off double move= 200 if they add together.
Can i get hof in post season
Please help before i brake this game
It can be double move to a shot as well guys.
Is there a certain amount of times it has to be done or is it a random unlock?
You don’t have to assist you can score yourself. Many you tubers have on tape that they unlocked ankle breaker by scoring themselves.
What if you get an double move leading to score but not an assist
You just won’t get dimer you’ll still get the ankle breaker badge
I have been doing double moves to assists like 300 times, and it still hasn’t unlocked?? I’m a 90 overall pg playmaker, and my playmaking is all the way up. I’m confused as to why I can’t get it.

Ive done double dribble leading score and getting the assist with it 1600 and still no dimer or ankle breaker to hof.smh
How can you find out how many more you need to get ankle breaker
I have got the dimer badge purely off of double move leading to score-assists, but no ankle breaker badge. I should have got it 200 assists ago but i havent. why?????
upgrade gold
How can we upgrade it to gold
Just spam crossover and call for a pic as soon as the pick rolls pass it to him as he rolls. I get 40 assist per game doing this
Do they have to be assists because Im around half way with just scoring. Ill do a cross over, shoot it in there face, then score. You are telling me it doesn’t count?
So… since my player is a shot creator can i still get the badge??
Hi I’m a 88 overall playmaker I’ve played like 30 games and have gotten a lot of double moves leading to score and still having gotten Ankle breaker badge I’ve been doing double moves leading to score and then scoring with myself can I do that or do I have to get assists

Can u get hall of fame in the play offs?
No it’s not… if u just can get a double move assist.. it unlocks it faster. Trust me I unlocked it in less than 30 minutes and I didn’t unlock dimer
