The first thing you’ll need to figure out is how to change your current pass style in NBA 2K25. From the MyCAREER menu, head to MyPLAYER and select Animations. Use the LB/L1 and RB/R1 buttons to head to the Animations Store, select Playmaking Moves, and Pass Styles. You can see the options you currently have unlocked in this menu, or press R3 to see the Pass Styles that are currently locked and their requirements to unlock.

Best Pass Style for 70+

  • Name: De’Aaron Fox
  • Requirments: 77+ Pass Accuracy

If you’re looking for the best Pass Style to use during the early part of your MyCAREER, I would strongly suggest using De’Aaron Fox. It’s quick, stylish and, most importantly, extremely accurate compared to other Pass Styles that we can use at this point. However, you’ll want to get rid of it as soon as the next one becomes available.

Best Pass Style for 80+

  • Name: Tyrese Haliburton
  • Requirements: 89+ Pass Accuracy

For those that have reached the Midpoint of their MyCAREER, or you’ve sunk enough VC into your character to have this good of Pass Accuracy early in the game, I would strongly suggest picking the Tyrese Haliburton Pass Style. It seems that this is going to be the Meta for online play, and it’s great during NBA games, as well.

Best Pass Style for 90+

  • Name: Mike Conley
  • Requirements: 90+ Pass Accuracy

If you’ve gotten over the 90 hump, I would strongly suggest using the Mike Conely Pass Style. It’s currently the only one available for players with over 90+ Pass Accuracy, but as new Seasons release, we can expect to see more come and the Meta possibly shift.

Best Overall Pass Style in NBA 2K25

If you’re looking for the best overall Pass Style in NBA 2K25, you should absolutely pick Tyrese Haliburton. While Mike Conley has an overall higher point of entry, requiring you to be at least above 90+ Pass Accuracy, the speed at which Tyrese can pass the rock is currently unmatched. It’s the current meta for Season 1 and will likely stay on top for a while after this season comes to a close.

NBA 2K25 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch and PC.
