Jamario Raman Moon (born June 13 1980, in Goodwater, Alabama) is an American professional basketball player for the NBA's Toronto Raptors. He has played for the Harlem Globetrotters, CBA's Albany Patroons, Fuerza Regia in the LNBP, and most recently the USBL Gary Steelheads. He attended Meridian Community College where he averaged 20.8 points per game and 8.7 rebounds. Moon entered the 2001 NBA Draft but he was not drafted by any team.
Moon signed a two-year deal with the Toronto Raptors on July 10 2007 after he had impressed the coaching staff in a three-day mini-camp held by the club. In his first start against the Chicago Bulls, he had 12 points, six rebounds, three steals, and one block in 23 minutes. Moon remained in the starting lineup over the next few games, recording 15 points, nine rebounds, six blocks and three steals in a game against the Bulls on 25 November 2007. Two days later, Moon broke a club record by recording twelve consecutive games with at least one block per game.
On February 1 2008, Moon was named NBA Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month. He had a career-high five steals on January 18 against Atlanta, and scored a career-high 17 points against Cleveland the next night.
