The 1994-95 New Jersey Nets experienced a challenging season, finishing with a 30-52 record. Despite the presence of standout players like Derrick Coleman and Kenny Anderson, the team struggled to find consistent success. Coleman led the team in scoring, averaging 20.5 points per game, while Anderson contributed significantly with 17.6 points and 9.4 assists per game.
