That's all you need to know to set a screen in NBA 2K23. However, it's worth knowing the different types you can utilize to make your gameplay more dynamic.
Ball Screen
When you set a screen that shields a teammate with the ball, it falls under this category in NBA 2K23.
Pick and Roll
A highly offensive tactic that sets a screen for a teammate with the ball and then moves toward the basket. The aim is to receive the pass successfully and score a basket.
Back Screen
This method creates a screen behind a player trying to defend against your teammate. The dummy creates an extra pass, as the screen can then move toward the basket to receive a pass and then score.
Pick and Pop
This move is similar to the Pick and Roll, but the screen moves, or "pops," to an open space rather than towards the basket. You can set a screen like this in NBA 2K23 when a particular court section is extremely congested.
Overall, screens, when used properly, will offer you additional options in the attack. It's not the most obvious way of attacking, but taking a direct approach at all times can be counterproductive. Hence, it's in your best interests to learn and practice these concepts to become a better player.
