The Brooklyn Nets 2000–01 relied on a balanced offense led by Keith Van Horn’s scoring, with Stephon Marbury serving as the primary playmaker and second major scoring option. Kerry Kittles provided steady perimeter production, while Kenyon Martin emerged as a key frontcourt contributor through rebounding, interior scoring, and defense. The roster featured multiple offensive threats but showed greater strength in playmaking than rebounding or overall defensive consistency.

Stephon Marbury Starter/Star [1.1] 38.2 High [1.2] 23.9 3.1 7.6 1.3 94.78 Ball-dominant lead guard who carried much of New Jersey’s offensive creation after arriving from Minnesota. Marbury blended downhill scoring with high-volume playmaking, earning his first All-Star selection while posting a career-best 23.9 points per game. All-Star 2001
Keith Van Horn Starter/Star [1.1] 35.4 High [1.2] 17.0 7.1 1.7 1.2 71.02 Versatile scoring forward who remained the club’s most reliable frontcourt offensive option. Van Horn mixed perimeter shooting with inside scoring and often shouldered a major share of the half-court offense.  
Kenyon Martin Starter/Star [1.1] 33.4 Medium [1.1] 12.0 7.4 1.9 2.8 58.08 Physical interior presence whose athleticism already flashed star potential. Martin defended multiple positions, attacked the glass aggressively and gave the Nets much-needed energy on both ends as a rookie. Rookie of the Year Voting 2nd (2001), NBA All-Rookie First Team 2001, Rookie Challenge Participant 2001
Aaron Williams Key Contributor [1.05] 28.5 Medium [1.1] 10.2 7.2 1.1 2.1 47.51 Rugged frontcourt contributor who filled gaps all season with rebounding, interior defense and hustle plays. His willingness to do the dirty work helped stabilize a roster that lacked defensive consistency.  
Kendall Gill Key Contributor [1.05] 28.8 Medium [1.1] 9.1 4.2 2.8 1.7 41.35 Veteran wing defender who brought toughness and perimeter pressure when healthy. Although his shooting numbers dipped, Gill still contributed secondary playmaking and disruptive defense.  
Lucious Harris Key Contributor [1.05] 28.4 Medium [1.1] 9.4 3.9 1.8 1.2 37.42 Steady complementary scorer whose value came from floor spacing and smart off-ball movement. Harris provided balance alongside higher-usage teammates and quietly logged heavy minutes.  
Johnny Newman Key Contributor [1.05] 25.0 Medium [1.1] 10.9 2.1 1.4 0.9 35.65 Aging scorer who still supplied efficient offense in a reserve role. Newman stretched defenses with his jumper and remained a dependable source of bench scoring at age 37.  
Stephen Jackson Key Contributor [1.05] 21.6 Medium [1.1] 8.2 2.7 1.8 1.3 32.34 Athletic young wing who began carving out a rotation role through defensive activity and shot creation flashes. Jackson’s versatility hinted at a larger future role despite inconsistent efficiency. Rookie Challenge Participant 2001
Jamie Feick Key Contributor [1.05] 24.8 Low [1.0] 3.7 9.3 0.8 1.8 32.76 Rebounding specialist whose short stint was defined by work on the glass. Feick grabbed 9.3 rebounds per game and supplied interior physicality whenever he was on the floor.  
Doug Overton Key Contributor [1.05] 26.3 Low [1.0] 6.9 2.0 4.4 0.3 28.14 Veteran point guard who helped organize the offense during a brief stretch. Overton focused on ball security and playmaking rather than scoring, serving as a stabilizing backcourt presence.  
Sherman Douglas Bench [1.0] 18.5 Low [1.0] 5.7 1.3 2.4 0.7 20.20 Experienced floor general who directed second units with patience and passing. Douglas relied more on basketball IQ than athleticism at this stage of his career.  
Mark Strickland Bench [1.0] 22.4 Low [1.0] 5.7 4.6 0.8 0.7 23.60 Utility forward who contributed across several categories during limited appearances. His rebounding and defensive effort helped him earn minutes despite a modest offensive role.  
Eddie Gill Bench [1.0] 19.0 Low [1.0] 4.9 1.1 3.0 0.6 19.20 Undersized reserve guard who played with pace and looked comfortable creating for teammates. Gill’s assist numbers reflected his willingness to move the ball and initiate offense.  
Evan Eschmeyer Bench [1.0] 18.0 Low [1.0] 3.4 4.9 0.5 1.4 20.40 Defensive-minded center whose role centered on rebounding, screening and paint protection. He offered size but was rarely featured offensively.  
Vladimir Stepania Bench [1.0] 9.7 Low [1.0] 2.8 3.8 0.6 0.7 15.80 Raw young center whose impact came primarily through physical tools and rebounding. Stepania remained a developmental project while providing occasional frontcourt depth.  
Jamel Thomas Bench [1.0] 11.2 Low [1.0] 2.6 1.8 0.0 0.6 10.00 Depth wing who appeared only briefly but showed a willingness to attack defensively and compete for loose balls in limited opportunities.  
Jim McIlvaine Bench [1.0] 10.7 Low [1.0] 1.6 1.9 0.2 1.2 9.80 Shot-blocking specialist whose offensive involvement was minimal. McIlvaine’s primary purpose was providing rim protection off the bench.  
Kevin Ollie Bench [1.0] 8.5 Low [1.0] 1.2 1.2 1.3 0.3 8.00 Reserve point guard who focused on managing possessions and getting teammates organized. His contributions were subtle but useful in short stretches.  
Soumaila Samake Bench [1.0] 6.6 Low [1.0] 1.4 1.6 0.0 0.5 7.00 Young developmental center whose minutes were limited to spot duty. Most of his value came from size, rebounding effort and long-term upside.  
TEAM TOTALS   240.6   92.1 39.6 19.5 12.9   New Jersey relied heavily on Marbury’s shot creation and Van Horn’s scoring, but inconsistent defense and roster turnover contributed to a disappointing 26-win season despite several talented young pieces.
