Stephon Xavier Marbury (born February 20, 1977 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American professional basketball player, currently playing point guard with the New York Knicks. Marbury was an NBA All-Star in 2001 and 2003 and an All-NBA Third Team member in 2003. He is known for his quickness, ball handling, flashy moves and perimeter scoring. His career averages are 19.9 ppg and 7.9 apg.

Marbury was selected fourth overall by the Milwaukee Bucks in the 1996 NBA Draft, then traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves for the draft rights to Ray Allen (who was drafted immediately after him) and a future first-round pick. In his first season in the league, Marbury averaged 15.8 points and 7.8 assists per game and was named to the 1997 All-Rookie Team. He, along with Kevin Garnett, led the Timberwolves to the NBA Playoffs in 1997 and 1998.

Marbury is the cousin of current Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Sebastian Telfair. He has been named to The Sporting News list of "Good Guys in Sports" three times.

Recently, Marbury partnered with Steve & Barry's to promote a line of shoes and clothing bearing his nickname, "Starbury". Understanding the pressure that inner-city kids face to spend $150-$200 on footwear sold by other companies such as Nike, Reebok, and Adidas, his line of shoes sells for $14.98. He wore these shoes on court for the entirety of 2006-07 season. Marbury is not paid directly to endorse the shoes, but is compensated based on sales of the shoes. Now, Marbury has promised to give out a free pair of Starburys to every high school varsity basketball player in New York City.

  • For the record, my comment below is not to suggest that any of those players is/was a better "player" or "winner" than Isiah Thomas. I'd rank him #1 as far as a smaller guards, with Iverson second, followed by John Stockton and others.
