Q: How do I switch between PC and Controller controls?

Use the platform tabs above the tables. The Controller tab includes Xbox notation first and PlayStation notation second.

Q: How do Controller dribble moves work?

Player camera uses D-pad sequences, while Wire and POV camera modes can use the right stick. Holding RT or R2 selects the escape version, while releasing sprint produces a standing move; the equipped animation determines the exact result.

CONTROLS FAQ

Quick answers by platform

How do I switch between PC and Controller controls?

Use the platform tabs above the tables. The Controller tab lists Xbox notation first and the PlayStation equivalent second.

What are the basic PC controls?

Hold E to shoot, tap E for a pump fake, use Shift plus Spacebar for a driving dunk, hold Spacebar for a standing dunk, press F for a self lob, and use T plus a teammate number for a team alley-oop.

How do targeted PC passes work?

Use teammate numbers 1 through 4. Press a number for an overhead pass, add Shift for a chest pass, double-tap for a bounce pass, or combine Shift and a double-tap for a flashy pass.

Do the Controller controls include PS5 buttons?

Yes. Each Controller input shows Xbox notation first and the PlayStation equivalent second, such as RT / R2, X / Square, Y / Triangle, and LB / L1.

How do Controller dribble moves work?

Use the D-pad table for Player-camera inputs or the right-stick table when the selected camera supports RS dribbling. Starting ball hand and RT / R2 determine the direction and escape variation.

Are mobile touch controls included?

The official list labels the Controller bindings for console, mobile, and PC, which applies when using a controller. A separate touch-screen layout is not documented in this table.
