What do Skill and Shooting Boosts do in NBA 2k24?
During 2k17 the 2K team told the 2K community that skill boosts provided a +5 attribute boost to each category. They then announced that they were changing how boosts worked and they no longer provided a +5 attribute boost but instead provided a percentage based boost that did not impact your attributes.
Skill boosts enhance specific attributes or skills of your player. For example, they might increase your player's shooting accuracy, speed, ball-handling, or defensive capabilities. The boost increase is likely a 5-10% increase to the players base ratings but will not allow the player to unlock in game animations that are gated by attribute requirements.
There are 6 different skill boosts which include Jump Shots, Layups/Dunks, Steals, Blocks, Rebounding and Ball Handling/Passing.
Jump shot skill boosts can provide a noticeable improvement in your make percentage and we recommend always having some for the best chance to make a jump shot.
