Jumping into a new NBA 2K title means players will once again have to figure out which shot meter settings work best for them, and it all starts with learning where to make those changes.
When shooting in NBA 2K25, players will have a good idea of how successful their shot is based on the timing of the shot gauge. Perfectly timed shots result in a perfect shot. You don’t always need a perfect shot to score, but these shots create the highest probability of doing so.
In addition to timing, the shot indicator also takes into account how open a player is when positioning himself for a jump shot. And every pro has a unique shooting technique, so timing varies. Likewise, players have their own shot preferences.
So, whether you’re new to the series or a long-time veteran, here’s everything you need to know about changing the shot meter in NBA 2K25.
