    Learning how to dunk is one of the most important skills you can acquire in NBA 2k22. Dunking is an important way of scoring points during matches. There are different kinds of dunks you can make in the game. Additionally, this iteration of the game also comes with a Dunk Meter. In this article, we will show you how to dunk and use the Dunk Meter too.

    How to Dunk in NBA 2k22?

    There are two kinds of dunks in NBA 2k22. They are Dominant and Aggressive.

    Dominant Dunk

    To pull off a slick Dominant Dunk, you will need to press the RT button on your Xbox controller, and at the same time, you need to pull your right joystick towards the left, right, or upwards as you drive towards the rim. For PlayStation, you need to follow the same process, with the only difference being the fact you need to press the R2 button on your controller.

    Aggressive Dunk

    For the Aggressive Dunk, you will need to hold the RT button on your Xbox controller (R2 button if you play NBA 2k22 on a PlayStation). At the same time, you will also need to pull your right joystick towards yourself as you drive towards the rim.

    Following these instructions will allow you to slam different kinds of dunks in the game. NBA 2k22 has made dunking much more efficient and controlled this year with the introduction of the Dunk Meter. Let’s check out how you can use it.

    How to Use the Dunk Meter in NBA 2k22?

    The Dunk Meter is a feature of the game that aims to help you get perfect dunks, along with finesse and accuracy. To use the dunk meter in NBA 2k22, all you need to do is follow the instructions mentioned earlier in this guide to make dunks during matches. However, just as you are about to dunk, you will notice an icon popping up.

    As you pull the right joystick towards you, you will notice that the Dunk Meter will begin to fill up in a clockwise direction in yellow. You will also find that this meter has a green area with a white line in the middle of it. This green region is the one you need to aim for to get the perfect dunk. When doing so, try to get as close as you can to the white line. This will help you get a guaranteed dunk each time.

    That being said, missing the green region in this meter will result in a completely messed up dunk. This makes it extremely important to master the meter. That should not be a stressful task, because, with a little bit of practice, you will eventually get the gist of what the Dunk Meter is, and how you can ace it in every game.

    This was all you need to do about making dunks in NBA 2k22. With the latest version of the game, you will be able to get more finessed shots with enhanced accuracy thanks to the Dunk Meter. With a little bit of practice, you will be able to master it quite effectively.

    Now that you know how to score the perfect dunk, check out the best Jumpshot Build in NBA 2k22.

    Nope, Titus isn't as serious as this picture implies. Began calling himself a gamer after burning his eyes out playing Road Rash as a kid. Somehow manages to get headshot in a game of Counter Strike even before a round begins. Oh, and he's also a photographer.
