Floaters scale off of moving shot close (and by extension; dimer, floor general, heat level, hot spots, offensive consistency, etc.). The tear dropper badge helps the success rate a LOT. Like most shots, they will go in at a higher rate if they are less-contested and triggered closer to the basket. I've also noticed that floaters that have a good angle to bank in will go in more often.

Like in real-life, the floater is a high-risk, high-reward maneuver and by nature has a lot more 'luck' involved than a standard layup or dunk, so there will be times where a good one will brick and a bad one will swish.

The animation seems to be somewhat important. Some of them (the one-handed flip for example) seem to drop at a higher rate.

Floaters, like hook shots, have got release timing without indicator like jumpshots So if you're failing to hit them with somebody like Tony Parker you might releasing those shots too late/early.

That's probably what I might be doing. I'll lab some more and try it out later, thanks for the tip!

In my experience they work for CPU and not for me lol.

I do them pretty frequently with TP

They nerfed them with patch 3.

The whole purpose of the floater is so that guards have a way to get their shot up over bigs.

It's even harder to drive with smaller players now.

I'm constantly missing wide open floaters, it's annoying.
