Best Shooting Badges On NBA 2K22 – Top Badges For Shooting Builds

NBA 2K22 has finally arrived, and and that means a new season of MyCareer grind has officially begun. For those looking to shoot consistently in NBA 2K22, it’s a requirement that you equip and upgrade the best shooting badges available for your build. Here are the best shooting badges to equip for your MyPlayer in NBA 2K22 Current Gen & Next Gen.

1. Hot Zone Hunter

This is one of the most important shooting badge in NBA 2K22. It’s especially importat for anybody that doesn’t have a super high three pointer, if you are one of these people with a 73 pointer even in the 60s and you have hot zone hunter on it, you really shouldn’t miss now. Make sure you have hot zones before you equip this badge because if you don’t have the hot zone then the badge is literally pointless. 

2. Blinders

Another top badge for shooting. This badge removes any degradation your player’s stats may see from nearby vision obstructions. If you’re shooting anywhere near the paint, which will presumably be often, this badge could offer the precise edge you’re looking for.

3. Mismatch Expert

This is an underrated badge especially on current gen, because on current gen they are still trying to add that little play style like the play shot with the playlock and the glass union finisher bug some people are having shooting bigs. So for the shoot people teams, you don’t really have to worry about having to use this, but for the people that’s going against like inside bigs or you have an inside big, you probably want to use this because this is going to be like giant slayer but for shooting, so this is really overpowered and really good. 

4. Volume Shooter

This badge can  your shot percentage as shot attempts accured throughout the game, basically, the more shots you take, the higher your rating will be. 

5. Chef & Limitless Spot-Up

In 2K22, there is no limitless range, these are your limitless range abdges, but they are just not automatically limitless range. You’ve got to spot up if you want this to activate, so if you are stretch big, if you don’t have the ball in your hand, Limitless Spot-Up is a good badge. But if you are the ball handler, there’s no reason to put that on. For chef, people think this is the new limitless range, but it’s not, this is for off the dribble. So t his is not regular limitless range.

6. Green Machine

Green Machine was awesome in NBA 2K21, and it’s still pretty essential in 2K22 as well. As its name implies, this shooting badge rewards you for draining consecutive green shots. Get just a few greens in a row, and your window for draining more of them will be absolutely massive. In short, a nice Green Machine run allows the points to pile up very quickly. 

Fastest Way To Get Shooting Badges - How To Unlock Badges For Shooting Easy

1. Before you start any games, you want to head over to to options, go to settings and make sure you put your gameon superstar difficulty. As you move up in difficulty, you'll get a multiplier to your badge progress so you want to just start on superstar difficulty. 

2. Also you want to go into controller settings and turn your shot meter off because if you know how to time yourjump shot and you time it well you'll get a  if your shot meter is off.

3. And the last thing you want to do before you start any games is go to the jumpstart creator or the animation store and get yourself a jump shot that you know how to time when you're on defense. 

4. With this method you want to press left on the d-pad call it 2-3 zone and then press left on the d-pad again and call a half-court trap, this will make double teams happen a lot more and possessions will go by way faster which is what you want in shooting badges method. Because at the end of the day this means you'll be getting way more shots when you're on offense, you want to run up the court, just walk to the three-point line and then instead of pressing square to pump fake. You want to press triangle and circle at the same time to do a pass fake because you do get a penalty for pump faking. Then you want to flick your right stick to the left or to the right to do a jab step like that the defender will back up or he'll stand still not do anything and then you just shoot the shot and you can get an easy green.

5. If the shot is wide open and this works almost every time, the defender will just stand still leaving you with enough space to be open or he'll just back up and you'll be wide open.

6. Another tip you can do towards the beginning is suit from one spot only just because you can get your hot zones way faster and hot zones will make it way easier to shoot. Obviously, it's still easy to shoot. You don'tneed to pump fake every time with this method if you realize that you're open you can just shoot the shot. 

When it comes to badges, the first badge you want to max out is hot zone hunter, assuming you have hot zones then once you max that out you want to max out stop and pop, after that you want to max out sniper, limitless spot up and then if you have any extra badges after that you want to max out dead eye, green machine, volume shooter and if you upgrade these badges, in this order it should make this method way easier.
