Shot Speed - How quickly the shot gets to its ideal release point
Release Height - How high the shot is released
Defensive Immunity - How effective the shot is against defensive contests
Timing Impact - Adjusts shot windows to reward good timing at the cost of an increased penalty for bad timing

Make sure you check the available jumpers with the test build feature to make sure you can get the shot you want before locking in your build [smalls=under 6'5"] [swings=6'5"-6'9"] [bigs=6'10"+].

NBA 2K23 New Jumpshot Systems

With the new jumpshots, we will see the below changes in our NBA 2K23 build system:

You have a rating requirement to go along with that height requirement now, so your shooting attribute needs to be at a certain point to unlock certain jump shots
every jumpshot has a rating for not only release speed but also release height, timing impact and defensive immunity, so who knows how all this is going to play out, but it's definitely something very different from what we've had in the past this could provide and we think their goal of doing this is to provide more variety in terms of what jumpshots everyone uses
The custom shot you create will generate attributes and a shot rating requirement based on the components you use to build the shot
If you mid-rang or your three-point rating metts the requirement for the jump shot, you will be able to unlock Stephs or Kyrie's shot
Didn't make it in time for the courtside report, but working on adding a new controller setting to let you customize where your ideal release point is in your shots, examples early near the takeoff or late closer to the wrist flick, still working out the kinks but it's going to be fire. So this is something completely brand new being able to change when your release point is going to be for you to green that is.
