If you’re creating an NBA 2K25 MyPlayer character and want to use specific dunks, ensure you have the right requirements for the specific dunk you want. Each dunk is only available if you have a specific build. The main reason you cannot access specific dunk animations is your player’s height. 

Recommended Videos

Today, we are listing all NBA 2K25 dunk requirements. We will tell you the specific stats your player has to have, as well as list the height restrictions for these specific animations. Different animations not only add a flex and a signature style to your play, but they also can determine your dunk’s success rate. This list will be split into Contact Dunks, Signature Dunks, and regular Dunks.

How To Change Your Dunk Animations In NBA 2K25 

To change your dunk animations in NBA 2K25, start by going to MyPlayer > Animations. Then head over to Dunk Style Creator. Now, you can swap between One Foot Moving Dunks, Two Foot Moving Dunks, and Signature Dunks. 

You will see what dunks your MyPlayer can have, and then you can purchase these dunk animations using VC.
