Who’s Protecting the Rim, Who’s Erasing Mistakes, Who’s Changing Games Without Scoring

Points grab attention.
Blocks change behavior.

In 2K Comp League, elite rim protection doesn’t just stop shots. It reroutes offenses, shortens possessions, and forces teams to abandon entire game plans. These are the players making the paint uncomfortable in Season 4.
