When you first start your journey in MyCareer, you’ll have a lot to prove as you head to the NBA with high expectations. While living up to the hype will have its difficulties, you will start to blend in both in terms of your stats and moves including the dribble animation in NBA 2K24.

Here’s how you can unlock all dribble animations in NBA 2K24.

NBA 2K24 dribble animation requirements

There are three standard dribble animations in NBA 2K24, which most players starting out will have access to. These include Basic, Normal, and Pro.

Afterward, to level up your dribbling game, you can look to the 2K24 pro player dribbles. 17 players are available to choose from.

From the modern NBA GOAT in Lebron James to classic players like Steve Nash and John Stockton, you’ll be able to replicate and apply their dribble techniques to your game. You’ll even be able to pick from some of the WNBA’s biggest stars.
