Can 2K detect Zens?

Yes, NBA 2K implements measures to detect Cronus Zen devices, especially on PC with Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC), leading to bans, but detection on consoles (like Xbox) is harder as Zen emulates controllers, relying more on pattern detection which isn't always perfect, though PlayStation has reportedly improved its defenses. While Zens modify controller inputs for advantages like easier perfect shots, they aren't foolproof due to latency, and 2K bans users, but the ongoing cat-and-mouse game means cheaters often find ways to use them.
