How to check your player Hot Zones in NBA 2K22

NBA 2K22 has been recognized as one of the best games of the entire series so far. As part of season 2, the game added a slew of new features, player packs, locations, and other missions, which added to the overall excitement. Currently, NBA 2K22 also has a Halloween update live with a range of free rewards and theme changes across the MyTeam Neighborhood.

In NBA 2K22, Hot Zones play as important a role as they did in NBA 2K21. It’s still not rocket science to master shooting in NBA 2K22, but it’s going to take a lot of practice and refinement. Hot Zones play an important role, and ignore them at your peril.

What is a Hot Zone?
The hot zones or hot spots tell what space on the floor an NBA player is efficient in scoring the ball.


For instance, Stephen Curry, who is arguably the most prolific 3-point shooter ever, is incredibly efficient from anywhere beyond the arc. His all-time shot chart would show that most areas behind the 3-point line are some of his hot zones. And when he attempts a field goal from any of these spots, he is more likely than not to convert them.

NBA 2K22: How to find hot zones in various game modes?
In most cases, you will want to go to an individual’s player card to find the hot zones. If you are at the roster, you will want to select the player with the sticks, and then press either R (for Xbox) or R3 (for PlayStation) to go into the player card. Then, scroll through the player card with RT/R2 until you find the Hot Zones section.

There are two different mechanisms with respect to checking a player’s hot zone in the MyTeam and other game modes. In NBA 2K22, hot zones can be checked by simply going to the individual player’s card and selecting the hot zone option by scrolling down through the statistics until you reach the relevant section.

If your court doesn’t list any hot or cold zones, this is because you haven’t played enough games for it to reflect your shooting performance yet. This is why it’s recommended you start things off on “Pro” difficulty setting with 5-minute quarters so that you can quickly get through the required number of games to show your Hot Zones.

How to Find Your Hot Zones in NBA 2K22?
In previous NBA 2K versions, you have to complete a minimum number of matches before the map can show your hot zones. But in NBA 2K22, once you have accumulated 10 shots in a certain area, your hot zone can be activated – as long as you are shooting efficiently from that spot.

How to quickly get Hot Zones

  •     Set match difficulty to “Pro”
  •     Set quarter length to 5-6 minutes.
  •     Change your shot meter color to “red” in the game’s Settings. I highly recommend this, as it makes the visual cue for timing much more obvious.
