The latest addition to NBA 2K23 allows you to 2k23 mt find out how quickly or how slowly the shot meter displays, in the event you've enabled it. There are four options available in the Controller Settings which include Very Early, Very Late, Early, along with Very Late. While playing around with this does not affect the animations of your jump shots it will affect the speed at which the meter displays. Personally, we like it on Very Early.

Since the meter is displayed almost immediately after pushing the button, you'll get a few extra milliseconds to time your release, however if it seems like you're never getting your shots right, you might prefer extremely Late as well or something in between. The best way to find which method works best for you is to practice with once your favorite players in 2KU.

By default, your defensive Assist Strength is set to 50 within the controller Settings. This feature is designed to predict the speed of your adversaries that you are guarding, however, we find it far too violent at times. You can disable it entirely if you trust your own abilities to the sticks, however we'd suggest keeping it on for a moment, so there's still a small amount of magnetic force to help you stay in front of your opponents. Again, spend some time with 2KU to discover what works for you. Personally, we think around 25 is the optimal number.

There's nothing more annoying in NBA 2K23 than seeing a large-open teammate and accidentally throwing in the direction of the wrong player. However, with Controller Settings, you can modify how you want to adjust the Pass Target Profile. The weighting is determined by three different factors: Pass Target Direction, Target Distance, and Pass Target Distance, and Pass Openness of Target.

There's a profile available that puts passing a tick further toward openness in comparison to the default setting which we have found to be the best choice, though it is your choice to experiment further and figure out what will work for you. Keep in buy Nba 2k23 mt mind that you can guide an individual into an open space by holding Circle while holding the button, and if you choose Full Receiver Control in the Receiver Control option you'll actually be able to change the position of your teammate with this button.
