Custom Jumpers 2K25

Our first task at release this year was to start training our model to begin premium jumper testing. It takes us around a day to train a model to recognize greens in a new game and modify our existing scripts. Now that this process is done, we can start testing jump shots.

• Speed is the same as it has always been, how quickly will the ball get out of your hands. The measurement in the table is the earliest possible timing that a green can result. The Shot Speeds in the game are more of a guideline than a perfect measurement of shot speed.
• Green Window is the amount of time that a shot can potentially result in a green. For example, if a shot can green from holding shoot 500 milliseconds to 550 milliseconds the resulting green window is 50 milliseconds.
• Total Green Rate is the percentage of the total shots taken that resulted in a green.
• The Middle Green Rate represents a smaller inner green window where the green rate increases dramatically. Every shot this year has a inner green window where the green rate increases to above 50% or more for a multiple millisecond window.
• The Peak Green Rate represents a single 200 shot sample directly in the middle of the green window. Can the shot hit 100% of perfectly timed shots? The Peak Green Rate will tell you.

Guard Jump Shots

Kyrie Irving looks like one of the strongest guard bases so far with John Stockton also looking really strong. Cameron Thomas, Collin Sexton, Kyrie Irving and Oscar Robertson are good choice for releases to pair with either shot. Lower rated guards give Kira Lewis Jr base a try.

Wing Jump Shots

Jarrett Culver is a wing shot everyone is talking about right now. If you have not tried it as your base yet, give it a try. Some good releases to pair with it are Franz Wagner, JT Thor, Kobe Bryant and Jaylon Tyson. Additionally, Isaiah Collier Base and Release both are worth trying.

Big Jump Shots

The Yves Missi base is incredibly fast and can be used by low rated players. When paired with the Jeremiah Robinson-Earl Release the shot can green in the low 430 millisecond range which is incredibly quick as last years fastest jump shot came in around 470 milliseconds for its earliest green. You can afford to slow this shot down a little to make it a little easier to hit by applying the Jaren Jackson Jr, Pau Gasol or Aldridge. If the Missi base is quicker than you prefer, give Chris Bosh or Jonathan Isaac a shot.

We will begin posting jumpers to the table Friday. We are adding shots to the table from the Custom Jumper Request tool. You can submit a jumper for testing here.

We are currently working on a tool that will allow users to vote on which shots should be tested next and see a queue of upcoming shots to be tested.

For now, we have added a list of custom jumpers for each position that we recommend trying until the first round of jumpers gets posted tomorrow.
