How to Euro step in 2k22 ps5

The NBA 2K games generally give players more than enough ways to get around their opponents on offense, from dribble moves, to tricky gathers. Here are a couple of moves to help you score in the paint. Here’s how to Euro step and hop step in NBA 2K21.

How to Euro Step and Hop Step in NBA 2K21

Euro Step

NBA 2K seems to change how the shot stick works in almost every game, and surprise, they’ve changed it once again. Here’s how you Euro step with the new NBA 2K21 shot stick. You have two options.

For the first option, you’ll need to double tap the shoot button while holding the left stick towards your off hand as you approach the basket. This is the much more complicated way, but it doesn’t require you to use the shot stick at all.

The second way to Euro step in NBA 2K21 is to simply push the shot stick towards your off hand as you approach the basket. It should also be noted that you can hold down turbo while attempting these.

Hop Step

A hop step is another gather that’ll get you past some tough defenses by fooling opponents.

There are two ways to do a hop step as well. Just like the Euro step, hop steps can be done with and without the shot stick.

The first way is to tap the shoot button while driving to the basket. Easy enough. The second way is to hold the shot stick diagonally down left or down right while driving to the basket. This time, the first option is easier.

That’s everything you need to know about how to Euro step and hop step in NBA 2K21. If you’re looking to find the best builds to do these moves with, check out ours here.
