NBA 2K24 Best Settings for Jumpshot

Go into options and from there, into Settings. The first thing you want to set up here is to have your Shot Feedback be set to All Shots. After that, go into Controller Settings and look for the Shot Timing Visual Cue. Set this either to Release or Push. Be sure to test this to see which one you prefer. The Jump Shot Meter should be On. Conversely, set the Free Throw Meter to Off.
