Harder to poke free
Unpluckable is a returning Playmaking badge. The official job makes the ball harder to poke free.
This is the ball-handler’s steal defense. The player reaching wants Glove for steals from ball-handlers and strips on layups.
| Job | Unpluckable? | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Harder to poke the ball free | Yes | Official job |
| Harder to bother while you dribble | No | Strong Handle |
| Steal from a ball-handler | No | Glove |
| Tip or intercept a pass | No | Interceptor |
| Pass out of a trap | No | Bail Out |
Layup strips are still Glove on defense
If you are the one stripping a layup, that is Glove. Unpluckable is the player who refuses the poke.
Will Unpluckable save a bad gather?
The official sentence is the poke. A strip that is really a missed finish is a finishing problem, not this page.
