02 / THE BASICS
Before you hit
the court.
Public. Free. Still Alpha.
Practical Basketball opened to everyone on October 30, 2026 at 22:00 UTC — October 31 at 06:00 UTC+8. Public release does not mean the Alpha label has ended.
03 / PLAYER PROGRESSION
60. 85.
Then badges.
The developer’s October 28 FAQ explains how your Overall rating progresses. Older stress-test guides describe a different system.
Your starting point
The pre-release FAQ says new builds start at 60 Overall.
Upgrade with coins
Coins improve attributes and Overall up to 85.
Progress beyond 85
Additional Overall is determined by badges, according to that FAQ.

04 / QUICK ANSWERS
Good to know.
Why am I stuck at 85 OVR?
The October 28 developer FAQ puts the coin-based upgrade limit at 85 Overall. It says further Overall comes from badges. It does not give a complete badge-point formula or a guaranteed route to 99. Read the official FAQ
How do I get badge points?
The source confirms that badges affect progression beyond 85 OVR, but the material reviewed for this guide does not establish exactly how badge points are awarded. Per-match gains, mode comparisons and a fastest grind method are unverified.
Can I use coins to go straight to 99?
That rule appeared in the July Stress Test 3 announcement. The later release FAQ instead describes coins taking you to 85, followed by badge-based progression. Use the newer release progression explanation for this Alpha.
Can I change my dominant hand later?
The official tutorial says changing your dominant hand or skin color requires a new build or a reset. It does not explain refunds or reset costs, so check your choices before committing. Official build tutorial
Does Practical Basketball have codes?
Yes. The developer announced RELEASE with the public launch and posted a redemption tutorial. Our Practical Basketball codes page includes the official source and the current verification limits.
THE SOURCE MATTERS
A small guide.
A clear paper trail.
This guide links to the developer’s announcements rather than presenting community guesses as confirmed mechanics. Source dates refer to our review, not a promise that an Alpha feature will stay the same.
