Play NBA Jam 2000 Online

NBA Jam 2000 came out for the Nintendo 64 in 1999, published by Acclaim Entertainment. It was part of that late 90s wave of arcade style sports games that felt right at home on the N64, a system known for its multiplayer focus and over the top action titles.

You control a team of two NBA players, running up and down a shortened court trying to outscore your opponent. The main goal is simple: score more points than the other team before time runs out. Signature mechanics include the ability to shove defenders out of the way to create space, and catching "on fire" after making three consecutive baskets, which lets you perform even more outrageous dunks and shoot from nearly anywhere. The pacing is relentless, with constant back and forth action and very little downtime between possessions. It feels like pure, chaotic fun, especially when playing with a friend against the CPU or in versus mode.
