NBA 2k22 Is Mouse in the House good?

For Mouse in the House to trigger the following conditions must be met based on your players height:

  • 6'10 and Taller players must be 3 inches taller than their defender. 6'10 over 6'7 for example
  • Under 6'10 you must be 4 inches taller than your matchup. 6'9 over 6'5 for example.
  • 6'11 over 6'8 does not activate Mouse in the House and is the only exception to these rules.

To test Mouse in the House we took 200 contested layup attempts and recorded the success against 2 different height defenders at each badge level. The following table shows the Mouse in the House boost to overall made layup attempts.

The size difference required to activate the badge is large enough that you should already be able to make layups over that defender fairly easily.
