Scooper

Scooper Badge Description

Improves a player's ability to make quick scoop layups
Primary Ball Handlers
Gold
If you fit layup into your build then gold is a good target
Locks
Silver
Bronze should suffice but you could even go no badge and still have good success with scoops
Bigs
None
Probably not needed on bigs as they are too slow to take advantage of scoops
Scooper Test Details

To test the boost from Scooper we took 200 layups against a defender at each Badge Level. The average contest for these attempts was around 12%.

We did this at an 84 Layup at each badge level and then ran the same test again at the rating break point required for each badge level.

Scooper Test Results

The boost for Scooper was decent when contested, but scoop layups really shine by having quick animations and wide angles to reduce contest.
