NBA 2K25 60-99 Overall Guide: Best Build, Jumpshot & Methods

Reaching the highest overall rating of 99 in NBA 2K25 used to require either grinding for countless hours or spending real money on virtual currency. But this year, gamers have uncovered the most efficient method yet to attain that prestigious 99 overall without spending a dime.  In this NBA 2K25 99 overall guide, we'll break down the best build, jumpshot and tips to get.

How To Get 99 Overall In NBA 2K25 - 2K25 99 Over Guide

The secret is exploiting what 2K25 gets wrong: its tendency to give out huge VC bonuses for unrealistic player stats and quest completions. With the right setup focusing solely on shooting and speed, users can average video game-breaking numbers every simulated game. They then funnel those stat totals into completing repeatable quests that reward tens of thousands of VC each. By creating two identical farming builds and cycling them over six seasons each, the virtual funds come rolling in faster than ever before.

Best NBA 2K25 99 Overall Build

Position: PG

Height: 6'5''

Weight: 204 lbs

Wingspan: 6'5''

This is the best build to get to 99 overall in NBA 2K25 because it allows you to maximize your shooting ability for earning VC efficiently while still having enough playmaking and athleticism to dominate games. With a 99 3-point rating and high mid-range, this build will consistently hit open and lightly contested jump shots on Rookie difficulty. The build also has over 90 speed and agility to blow by defenders, as well as a 76 ball handle rating to create offense. While the defense is lacking, the focus is on outscoring opponents quickly in simmed and key games. Maxing your scoring potential in this way allows you to rapidly complete performance-based quests that award huge VC bonuses, letting you reach 99 overall faster than any other build.

Best NBA 2K25 99 Overall Jumpshot

Lower/Base: Jarret Culver

Upper Release 1: Oscar Robertson

Upper Release 2: Oscar Robertson

Release Speed: 100%

Animation Blending: 50% Oscar Robertson, 50% Oscar Robertson

This jumpshot combination of Jarret Culver as the lower/base animation paired with Oscar Robertson on both upper release slots at 100% speed and a 50%/50% blend is the best in NBA 2K25 for rapidly earning VC to reach 99 overall. Culver's base provides a high and fluid release that is easy to green with. Even at just 60 overall rating, this build can unlock Culver's base due to the high shooting attributes. Combining it with the fast and high arcing stroke of Oscar Robertson on the uppers results in an extremely quick and high success rate jumpshot. Making nearly every open three on Rookie difficulty allows you to constantly drain threes and rack up huge scoring totals to activate key performance goals. Fast games with maximum scoring gets VC far quicker than any other jumpshot, optimizing the process of completing quests that elevate this build to a 99 overall rating in the shortest time.
