In NBA 2K26, you’ll find fresh control mechanisms for impressive teamwork moves called flashy passing, and a novel passing method to assist teams in retaining possession. These passes each serve a purpose, making them essential skills to master, particularly for point guards or versatile centers like Jokic.
Skillful moves such as no-look passes, behind-the-back flicks, and over-the-shoulder throws are indeed highly appreciated due to their impressive visual appeal.
As a basketball enthusiast, I love to hone my skills in NBA 2K26 by practicing passes and team moves like alley-oops. You can do this in a jiffy using modes such as Blacktop or scrimmages, which are conveniently located in the Learn 2K menu.
How To Flashy Pass In NBA 2K26
In the latest series installments, the approach for flashy passing has undergone an adjustment compared to earlier versions. However, if a player boasts a superior passing skill, their effectiveness remains unaltered.
To perform a flashy pass in NBA 2K26, two buttons need to be pressed at the same time.
- PlayStation: Cross & Circle
- Xbox: A & B
On either controller, point the Left Stick in the direction you want the pass to go.
Swift passes can similarly be executed during attempts for a layup or dunk, thus interrupting the animation to toss the ball backwards.
If a pass comes from behind a player or at an unusual angle, it’s usually more effective to use flamboyant passes. This is because a player can quickly toss the ball over their shoulder instead of taking the time to turn around for a regular chest pass.
Trying flashy passes with players who have bad handling and passing is a recipe for more turnovers.
How To Wraparound Pass In NBA 2K26
Wraparound passes, also known as wrap passes, are maneuvers in which the passer puts additional focus on passing around a defender, often shielding the ball with their body. This type of pass may lose some speed, but it reduces the chance of interception when under pressure or being double-teamed.
In NBA 2K26, executing a wrap pass requires the player to be closely watched or feel some sort of defensive pressure.
- PlayStation: Double-tap Circle
- Xbox: Double-tap B
Use the Left Stick to dictate the direction of the pass.
These are the old controls for flashy passing in previous installments of the NBA 2K series.
