Wondering how to quick stop in NBA 2K24? Then you have come to the right place. With the latest NBA title available now, it’s time to start working on those handles in and around the key.

The ability to pull off a quick stop will come in really handy when you’re up against a tricky defense, as, when executed correctly, it will leave your opponent stranded in defense, creating space to fire off an unmarked jump shot.

So, without further ado, here is everything you need to know about how to quick stop now the NBA 2K24 release date has arrived.

How to quick stop in NBA 2K24

The first thing to note is that not every player on the court will be able to execute the quick stop manoeuvre. In order to accurately pull off the quick stop, you should look to have the ball in the hands of a player with high dribbling stats and good handles. 

Executing the quick stop is incredibly straightforward. Whilst dribbling in any direction, tap L2 (PlayStation) or LT (Xbox). This will cause the ball handler to pull up and stop immediately in their tracks. You will then have the opportunity to let off a quick shot whilst the defence is stranded.

An alternative option for those looking to perfect the quick stop is to flick your right analogue stick at a 90-degree angle to either the right or the left depending on which way you are moving with the ball carrier.

Both of these methods have been known to work, so we recommend trialling both in order to decide which is better suited to your playing style.
