If you want to get the best out of your jump shot in NBA 2K26, you’ll need a good shot base, good releases, and good timing. This guide will show you a jump shot setup that gives you consistent shooting and maximum scoring potential for builds between 6’5″ and 6’9″. Along with proper jump shot mechanics, it also covers tips for boosting stamina, improving shooting accuracy, and maximizing performance in practice sessions and games.
The Best Jumpshot
The jump shot we will go over gives you a good reliable and consistent option for players. The base is Carmelo Anthony which has a good smooth easy to balance base to get off a consistent shot. We will use Saddiq Bey for Release 1, and Rudy Gay for Release 2. We will use a 60,40 blend.
The release speed is set to max, allowing the shot to leave quickly and making it harder to contest. The Push visual cue is used for timing, providing clear feedback on when to release. This configuration is effective for builds between 6’5” and 6’9” with at least an 84 mid-range to ensure versatility and high consistency.
Tips & Tricks
Listed below are some tips and tricks that will help you in the game:
- Do Gatorade Workouts and get at least 3 stars for extra stamina. Easier ones include treadmill, squats, bench press, boxing, and agility ladders.
- Always buy Jump Shot Boosts for better shooting.
- Gatorade Boosts help, especially if you dribble a lot. More stamina means a higher chance of making shots.
- Grind for Hot Zones in the shooting gym next to the Gatorade gym. Hot zones make shots easier to green.
