New NBA 2K23 “bad shot selection” fix released

The 2K gamers have had trouble making shots with typically high-scoring shooters ever since the game's premiere earlier this month.

Poor shot selection is a major issue for players since the shot is frequently counted as disputed when a defender is close by. Unfortunately, the NBA 2K23 game is not sophisticated enough to comprehend anything other than their presence in determining if shots are disputed. That is even if they are seven feet away, off to the side, and facing the opposite direction.

On September 20, 2K released an NBA 2K23 hotfix across all platforms. Gameplay Director Mike Wang tweeted “Hotfix this morning fixes some unwanted "Bad Shot Selection" events when shooting open shots with good players. You'll also see more "Good Shot Selection" events firing off also”.

According to Wang's tweet, the patch only affects open shots made by skilled players. It appears that users may anticipate seeing more "good shot selection" events while they play.

The "bad shot selection" problem will be fixed by the most recent patch from 2K, version 1.005. The patch will also address a number of player-reported errors, including ones with network connections, audio, game crashes, gameplay glitches, and a few other minor problems.
