Looking for reviews on how the performance of the 24-70 mark ii is on the 1dx for basketball under the net or from the corners? AF performance ok? 70-200 is just a touch to long for the court I'm shooting.

I use the 24-70, 70-200 and 300 (all f/2.8 latest versions) for basketball and don't feel like any one lens perform less well than the others. 1Dx Mk II, 5D4 and some L glass (gear list / feedback)

I also shoot with a 70-200 and a 300mm it's just when I want to shoot under the net I suffer. Especially when I want to include the full body and basket in the frame.
