Best Motion Styles in NBA 2K25 for each height

Even the way you walk down the court can make a difference in NBA 2K25. Having the best and fastest Motion Styles can give you that small competitive advantage over other players, and we’ll tell you which Motion Style is the best for every height.

Like most animations in NBA 2K25, Motion Styles are locked behind height requirements. The good news is there aren’t any attribute limitations, so you’re good to go—as long as you’re the right height. What’s even better, they’re all free, unlike the flop animation and many others in the game.

Motion Styles are a bit of an enigma in the NBA 2K community. There are some theories that they affect a lot more of your motions than initially thought, and we’ve found that to be partially true. While Motion Styles primarily determine your movement speed and animation when running up and down the court, they also seem to affect take-off animations when you’re off the ball, while defending or moving in for a rebound, for example.

This is where it stops, though. Motion Styles most definitely do not affect animations like shooting, dribbling, steal and block attempts, etc, in NBA 2K25.

What’s the best Motion Style in NBA 2K25?

With the above in mind, the best Motion Style in NBA 2K25 is by definition also the fastest. It is possible to gel with an animation package so seamlessly that minor statistical differences can’t make up for that personal feeling of mastery, but speaking from a meta perspective, you must get the fastest Motion Styles if you want the best.

Between 6-feet-5-inches and 6-feet-9-inches in NBA 2K25

Shorter players may have the luxury of choice, but you shouldn’t spend more than a couple seconds contemplating your Motion Style if you fall between 6-feet-5-inches and 6-feet-9-inches. Alex Caruso is the one and only choice that makes competitive sense.

Under 6-feet-5-inches in NBA 2K25

Bradley Beal sits atop the Motion Style mountain with Alex Caruso. You can pick either one if you’re a small player, so if you prefer Caruso be our guest. You’ll fly up and down the court either way.

Over 6-feet-9-inches in NBA 2K25

Drew Eubanks’ Motion Style is among the best for medium height players, let alone big men. You won’t regret having this kind of speed on your center build, but if you’re itching to go against the grain, Clint Capela’s Motion Style is a decent second option.

Now you’ve done all that running, you’ll need the best layup package in NBA 2K25 to finish the fastbreak.
