Why Turn Off the Shot Meter?

The shot meter in NBA 2K24 is what offers players the crucial info they need to make shots. A bar appears above your player’s head, showing how far you are from the perfect release after a shot. The closer you get to the green portion of this meter, the more likely it is that your shot will go in.

The shot meter is your best friend when you are first starting out. It provides visual feedback, helping beginners understand if they are getting their shots right. However, you might find the shot meter less beneficial as you gain more experience. Advanced players often report that watching the animations and developing an understanding of their players’ shooting release points are more beneficial than relying on a meter. Moreover, the shot meter can be distracting, pulling your attention away from the game.
