NBA Jam is a 3-on-3 basketball video game published by Acclaim Entertainment for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox in 2003. It is part of the NBA Jam series. The game was announced on May 12 2003. The play-by-play is voiced by Tim Kitzrow. There was also originally to be a GameCube version of the game. The game is based on the 2003–04 NBA season and features some of the NBA's best players from that season. After a series of more simulation-oriented Jam games NBA Jam features fast-paced gameplay more akin to the arcade originals although in a departure from the series' usual 2-on-2 formula the teams are made up of three players instead. The game also features various courts and special teams including all-star teams composed of various NBA legends. It is the last NBA Jam released by Acclaim as the company became defunct the following year.
