Basketball Zero UNC Update Guide – New Skills, Codes, and Cosmetics

The latest Basketball Zero update is here, and this time, it’s all about the legend himself — Unc. Even though he’s old-school, Unc proves he’s still got it on the court with powerful new moves, a signature “Cane Effect,” and a flashy new style that mixes humor with high-skill gameplay. Let’s break down everything new in this UNC update — from abilities and cosmetics to the latest working codes.

UNC Style Breakdown

Unc is the newest playable style in Basketball Zero, and his moveset is both unique and powerful. He uses his cane not just for style, but as part of his gameplay, making him one of the most creative characters yet.

• On the Ball – Cane Effect (Offense): Unc slams his cane into the ground to launch himself forward in a dribble dash. This causes everyone nearby to stumble or fall, giving him a clear opening for a shot or pass.
• Off the Ball – Cane Effect (Defense): When near a dribbling opponent, Unc has a 75% chance to knock the ball loose automatically, turning tight plays into easy steals.
• UNC Relay (Offense): This is Unc’s signature teamwork move. He fires a fast pass to a teammate who spins in a wheelchair before sending it right back — setting Unc up perfectly for a three-pointer or dunk.

Awakened UNC Abilities

When awakened, Unc becomes a full highlight reel.

• Still Got It in Me: Unc tosses his cane aside and shows off elite handles before pulling off an insane dunk — leaping over his lowrider in the process.
• UNC Block (Defense): Activates near the paint. When opponents shoot, Unc uses his cane to block the ball clean and instantly steals possession.
• Wheelchair Dash (Defense): This ability gives Unc a quick wheelchair dash animation, allowing him to catch up to fast opponents for a block or steal.

Oldschool Zone Buffs

This new zone adds a few nostalgic but powerful effects for Unc players:

• +2 extra dribbles
• Longer ankle break stun duration
• Reduced steal cooldown
• Higher shooting range
• Slightly slower movement with the ball

These buffs make Unc a tactical powerhouse, especially for players who enjoy controlling tempo and punishing aggressive dribblers.

New Cosmetics and Items

This week’s rotation brings a cool mix of retro and street flair to the court:

• Lowrider Emote
• Lowrider Score Effect
• Boombox Backpack

Also, new game jerseys are available, featuring clean trims and bold colors — perfect for players who want to stand out on the blacktop.

Limited Banana Emote, A limited-time emote that lets your player break into a full celebration dance after a big play. It’s flashy, fun, and only available for a short period.

Balance Changes

Some gameplay tweaks arrived with this patch, mainly focused on Ref Style:

• Foul: Now has a 10-second global cooldown and no longer activates on passes.
• Bench: Maximum of 2 players can be stunned at once.

These changes are meant to balance out crowd control during intense matches, keeping the pace fair and competitive.
