Summary

NBA Jam 2000 drops you into an all‑new 2‑on‑2 JAM mode that feels like a street‑ball carnival. You can pick from custom courts—including a gritty street arena—and unleash up to 50 different dunks, each wrapped in flashy special effects. The mode even lets you build a personal JAM player, complete with signature moves like a slick crossover dribble.

When you switch to the authentic 5‑on‑5 simulation, the game mirrors real‑team tactics; the Utah Jazz, for example, run a textbook pick‑and‑roll that feels lifted straight from the 1999‑2000 season. Ultra high‑rez graphics showcase all 29 NBA teams and over 300 superstars, while more than 800 motion‑captured animations—courtesy of Xavier "X‑Man" McDaniel—keep the action fluid.

The presentation leans on familiar voices: Kevin Harlan calls the play‑by‑play, Marv Albert hosts the studio segments, and Dan Roberts provides arena announcements. Even the cover art, starring Chris Webber, hints at the game’s blend of arcade flair and genuine NBA flavor.
