Overview
2K24 Guard Default v2.5 is a Cronus Zen script for NBA 2K24 on PS4, PS5, and Xbox. It automates shot releases across three shot types — standing jumpers, moving shots, and catch-and-shoot — with independently adjustable timing values. An online/offline toggle shifts all timing values by 150ms at once. The script includes an advanced defense combo, 11 dribble presets with hand-specific variants, and saves all settings automatically using PVAR memory.
What Is Included
- Auto green standing shot release (JumpShotValue — default 641)
- Auto green moving shot release (MovingShotValue — default 777)
- Catch and shoot timing system (default 650, triggered by L1 / LB tap)
- Online/offline mode toggle (+/- 150 applied to all timing values)
- Advanced defense combo system (alternating L2/R2 step)
- 11 dribble combo presets with left and right hand variants
- Dribble toggle system (on/off per session)
- OLED display interface (shows active timing values and dribble set name)
- PVAR persistent settings (auto-saves all timing values and mode state)
- LED indicator (green eyes = online mode, eyes off = offline mode)
- Vibration rumble feedback on value adjustment
How 2k24 Guard Default Works
2k24 Guard Default works by monitoring how long the shoot button (Square / X) is held and releases it at the stored timing value. Standing shots use JumpShotValue, moving shots (held with R2) use MovingShotValue, and catch-and-shoot (tap L1 / LB) uses the Catch & Shoot value. Switching to online mode adds 150 to all three values simultaneously; switching back subtracts 150. Dribble combos are triggered via L3 or R3 depending on which hand holds the ball, and the active set is shown on the OLED screen. All values are saved to PVAR immediately after any adjustment.

Compatibility Notes
2k24 Guard Default is designed for NBA 2K24. Shot timing is dependent on your jumpshot animation and connection latency. Use the Gatorade Training Facility to dial in values before playing online. Online mode adds 150 to all timing values automatically, but further manual tuning may be needed depending on your setup.

- Import the script into Zen Studio.
- Load the script into a Zen slot.
- Connect your controller and confirm the active slot.
- Enter the Gatorade Training Facility (practice mode).
