For those of you that missed out on the NBA 2K21 gameplay blog, posted earlier today, from gameplay directory Mike Wang, you can read it here.
For everyone else, Mike (@beluba) answered plenty of questions on the topic, as he returned to Twitter with a flurry of responses. We’ve wrapped them all up in one news post for you to take in. Enjoy and let’s hear your thoughts.
The key to making layups with the Pro Stick this year = instead of holding the stick to the left or right, hold it the direction you want for a brief moment then quickly rotate it toward 12 o’clock to find the ideal aim point.

By default, you won't see green lights when playing against the CPU. But you can set the Shot Feedback setting to All Shots if you want to see them like in 2K20.

The Jump Shot Creator isn't gated behind a workout anymore, it's available off rip.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Everything in the blog applies to next gen. But there’s a lot more to talk about as well
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
You can still use the button and be very successful. The pro stick just has a wider skill gap. Some will do better with it in comparison, but some will shoot a ton of airballs. My advice is to try both and see what fits you better.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
If you turn off the meter, aiming is automatically disabled and the pro stick works like 2K20 (timing based). You need the meter for aiming because the target is dynamic.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
The major components will be identical but there are differences which I’ll talk about later
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
There are more jump shooting fouls when you make contact with the shooter on bad/late contests this year.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
That’s been tuned back
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Pro Stick

I don’t think it’s a bad badge. It just needed some adjustments.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
The next gen myplayer builds, badges, and takeovers aren’t the same as current gen so the saves aren’t compatible.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
When you shoot with the pro stick, the meter only shows the ideal aiming point which you use the stick to target. You don’t see timing so you have to know your release as if the shot meter was off.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
If you don’t put anything into your shooting attributes, it will be a struggle
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Yes. It’s gone forever.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
The goal is for you to have to be at least in the mid to high 70’s to be a decent threat. If people are consistently hitting as a 51, I’ll make a hotfix
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
I’ve gone back and forth on this but settled on WIDE open you can basically ignore timing and aiming and still hit.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Exactly what I was going for here, creating a skill gap for slashers. If you can master pro stick layups, you’ll have a much better chance finishing at the rim contested and through contact
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Dunking is the same as 20
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
yeah, you can turn RS shooting off completely if you want.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
There's a pretty significant difference. Take your avg. 3PT FG% as a 70 and add about 20%
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
You can turn it off, but you should try it first. It'll make you a better finisher if you can adjust.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
yeah
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Shot Button will work pretty similarly to 2K20, though a lot of re-tuning has been done
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
You can turn off the meter and shoot with RS but it will be timing based like 20.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Team Pro-Am will use competitive sliders
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Similar. yeah.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Yes
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Yeah. let's say you're shooting a post fade by holding at 8 o'clock, you then rotate quickly to 6 o'clock or wherever the ideal aim point is – it moves based on coverage. Then you can either keep holding there once you find it or you can
release RS or tap a trigger to time it.— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Pogo stick is still in the game but it was nerfed.
— Mike Wang (@Beluba) August 13, 2020
Yeah. Although I think all of my responses so far apply to both.
