Are you ready for season 5 of NBA 2K23 and looking for the best jump shots to dominate the park? You’ve come to the right place. Thanks to Ezwtb, I’ve found the best jump shots for every single build in the game, no matter if you have a high, low, or even no 3-point rating. With this video, you won’t have to watch another jump shot tutorial the entire year, so pay attention.
I’ve been panicking, wondering why people weren’t hitting the shots they used to make before the season five patch. I went back into the lab and lobbed up 12 brand-new jump shots that have been working wonders. One of my friends went from a 45% three-point rating to 52% using one of my jump shots in only three days. It’s insane.
Under 6’5″ NBA 2K23 Best Jumpshots | Season 5
The first tried and tested jump shot is base on Steph Curry released one Oscar Robertson released two Oscar Robinson with a 100% release speed. You can’t go wrong with that jump shot. It’s just perfect.
My favourite jump shot for 6’5″ and under is base Kevin Porter Jr released one Oscar released to Oscar with a 100% release speed. It’s extremely easy to time and has a distinct release cue that’s still easy to time when your stamina is low.
6’5″ – 6’10” NBA 2K23 Best Jumpshots | Season 5
We’ll start with our 6’5″ – 6’10” build since 80% of the 2K community falls within this category. The first jump shot is the only one to survive the season five patch and is my favourite: Basil Miller Ball release one Rudy released to Kobe 35, Rudy 65 and Kobe at 100 release speed. My main jump shot that I’ve been using all year is still Cash. Even after the patch, I hopped on and went on a 15-game streak on threes like nothing had changed.
The second jump shot I recommend for 6’5″ – 6’10” is base Kyle Kuzma released when Oscar Robertson released to Kobe Bryant with a 50/50 blending and 100 release speed. If you’re a spot-up, lockdown-type build, this jump shot is for you. I have never used an easier-to-time catch-and-shoot jump shot in my life.
The third jump shot on the list for 6’5″ – 6’10” is based on Tobias Harris’s released one Penny Hardaway released two Rudy 70% Penny Hardaway and 30% Rudy, with a 100% release speed. I recommend this jump shot for my iso guard, but it’s also suitable for catch and shoots.
Over 6’10” NBA 2K23 Best Jumpshots | Season 5
For my 6’10” and overbuilds, the first jump shot is base David Robinson released one DeAndre Aiden released to Chad Holmgren with a 29/71 blend and 100% release speed. This jump shot is good for my center, and I shot 75% from the three-point line wide-open.
The second jump shot is base Manchester’s Hero released one and two, both Dirk with a 100% release speed. This jump shot is excellent for pick-and-pops or spot-up shots.
The third jump shot is base Lamelo Ball released when Oscar Robertson released to Dwyane Wade with a 65/35 blend and 100% release speed. I prefer this jump shot over the Steph Curry/Oscar Robinson one because it’s more accessible to time.
The last jump shot is base. Kevin Durant released one Tim Duncan to Dirk Nowitzki with a 50/50 blend and 100% release speed. This is one of the best catch-and-shoot jump shots in the game.
How to Unlock Elite Shooting in NBA 2K23?
