'NBA 2K21' Best Jumpshot: Your Ultimate Guide

When it comes to setting up custom jumpshots, Jump Shot Creator from NBA 2K21 provides players with plenty of options. A lot of fans are working hard right now to find the jumpshot that meets their needs. After all, securing a good jumpshot is crucial to a player's success in NBA 2K21. This guide aims to describe some of the best options fans can try in the game.

NBA 2K21 players have immediate access to the game's Jump Shot Creator by opening the MyPLAYER Appearance tab nearby.

That is not exactly how things worked in NBA 2K20, where players needed to unlock the ability to create personalized jumpers by completing exercises at the team's practice facility.

Fans who come straight from this title may be happy to know that the Jump Shot Creator becomes available even faster this time. There are over 300 combinations of basic Jumpshots animations that you can choose from, and you can even watch those NBA players demonstrate these techniques.

It’s also important to note that players should not expect the customized jumps described here to immediately repair their shot in this year's NBA 2K. While fans will finally succeed with one of these jumpers, using them will not replace the need to learn how to shoot well in NBA 2K21.

The Isaiah Canaan shot gives players the speed they need to lob shots fast, but they will need quite the reflexes to hit the green. If a player is comfortable with the game and has fast thumbs, this Jumpshot is really tough to beat. Getting down will not be easy, but it will be worthwhile once players start to land three-pointer after three-pointer.

The Isaiah Canaan Jumpshot is really good for those seeking out fast shots. One extra second may be the difference between a score and a blocked shot when it comes to your shooting form.

With Canaan's shot, you will get the ball into the air almost as soon as you press the shot button. This fast shot will also work well with the release meter because the timing is simple enough to get used to it. Of course, this does not guarantee a made basket, but there is no doubt that it increases your chances.

Kevin Love's shot is a general kind of Jumpshot. This cliché is aimed at new players who want to know that they will land in the green zone. It is reliable for all sorts of gameplay styles.

While it is not the best Jumpshots in the game for everyone, it is a great middle-ground for most situations. This makes it easy to use, whether players are actively defended or not.

Steph Curry is, without a doubt, one of the best shooters in the NBA, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that he makes this list, as he has one of the best NBA 2K21 Jumpshots as well. It can go higher than any other NBA player, and while it is not the best in terms of speed, you can use this Jumpshot effectively during defensive games.

It is an easy jumpshot that is slow enough to make green zoning easy every time. There are several basic jumpshots you can work out with. Once you get the hang of them, you can mix and match to make your own custom Jumpshots.

Whether you are new to the game or simply need a shot to ease your way into landing all these perfect green areas for the best shots, these are the best setups for a perfect custom jumpshot.

Base

Carmelo Anthony

Release 1

Kyle Korver

Release 2

Release 1

This Jumpshot is relatively slow but precise and useful for younger players. As you become more skillful and get a sense of when to release the Jumpshots, a faster option might be more helpful. This provides ample time to get that timing down perfectly.

Base

Jump Shot 35

Release 1

Harrison Barnes

Release 2

Stephen Curry

This custom jumpshot is a bit faster, but it also provides the unique jump movement from Harrison Barnes. It also makes it possible to get an idea of the ideal time to go out. The Steph Curry jumpshot is less important here, but the motion from the wrist to the end is superb and reminds us of the great Steph.

For those who want something a bit faster, but that always looks good, remember to use Base 22 or Michael Jordan. Base 22 is probably a bit quicker, but not a lot.

Once you are comfortable with the hits and reliably enter the green area before the release, it's time to speed up your game. Make sure you have a Quick Draw. Once this is done, try the following combination:

Base                    Jump Shot 38

Release 1            Tony Parker

Release 2            Carmelo Anthony

With a 75/25 mix between Parker and Anthony, this is one of the fastest Jumpshots in the game. Having the ability to land continuously perfect shots in the green area with this shot will make you feel lightning fast and unstoppable.

Another option for a fast, reliable Jumpshot also uses Jump Shot 38, but with two different releases:

Base

Jump Shot 38

Release 1

Rudy Gay

Release 2

LaMarcus Aldridge

This configuration still requires Quick Draw (Hall of Fame) but works wonderfully with its speed and reliability for any player.
