Timing Stability is one of the core components of every jumpshot, yet many players aren’t exactly sure what it does. We’ll explain what Timing Stability is in NBA 2K25 and how important it is for a good jumpshot.
When creating the best jumpshot in NBA 2K25, you must balance between four pillars—Release Height, Release Speed, Defensive Immunity, and Timing Stability. These are the statistical components that define how good a jumper is. While the first three are straightforward and generally understood by everyone, Timing Stability remains somewhat of an enigma.
How Timing Stability works in NBA 2K25
Timing Stability affects your MyPLAYER’s ability to have the same shot release timing on every shot, regardless of the circumstances. High Timing Stability reduces the impact of low stamina and heavy contests on your release. In other words, this is the shot consistency attribute.
Is Timing Stability important in NBA 2K25?
The importance of Timing Stability in NBA 2K25 can vary massively based on your preferred shooting settings. If you have your Shot Timing Profile set on High Risk-Reward, having high Timing Stability can be the difference between burying every jumpshot and laying brick after brick when you’re tired or challenged by a defender.
The lower the Risk-Reward your Shot Timing Profile has, the less shot timing, and by extension, Timing Stability matters. Therefore, your opinion of this stat’s importance can lie anywhere between crucial and useless.
