Any player looking to become lethal on the court needs to get accustomed to all the NBA 2K25 controls. While not every build or position will use every type of move, it’s good to have at least a general understanding of all the weapons in your toolbox.<\/p>\n
Learning a versatile moveset is key for players looking to spend time in MyNBA Eras, and it’ll also help pinpoint the perfect MyPLAYER build for MyCAREER. In this NBA 2K25 controls guide, you’ll find details for all the most important moves on offense and defense.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
While you’ll often have the choice to pause the game and check controls, having a handy reference can save time and speed things up as you’re honing your skills in NBA 2K25. With the MyPLAYER builder letting players test things out even more this year, you might want to spend some time seeing which moves feel fluid with the position and build you’re considering.<\/p>\n
NBA 2K25 is still available this year on PS4 and Xbox One, but the gap between generations is only growing wider. With a new dribble engine and several gameplay upgrades exclusive to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, this controls guide<\/a> will be specific to those platforms, but many of the controls are similar or the same on past gen editions.<\/p>\n
