in a four-game season series. With Kevin Garnett resting his back and Andray Blatche out with illness, Plumlee was the only active center on the Nets roster. The Nets held an 88–87 lead in the closing seconds when James attempted a dunk that would have won the game for the Heat. Plumlee blocked the shot and secured the season sweep in what the ''New York Times'' described as a signature moment in his career. Although James was visibly upset about the play, and claimed that he had been fouled, the NBA later announced that the call was correct and that the block was clean. In 70 games (22 starts), he averaged 7.4 points and 4.4 rebounds per game as he earned NBA All-Rookie first team honors, becoming the first Net since

(2008–09) to earn such honors.

2014–15 season

Following the departure of Andray Blatche, Plumlee came into the season as the primary back-up to Brook Lopez. On October 24, 2014, the Nets exercised their third-year team option on Plumlee's rookie scale contract, extending the contract through the 2015–16 season. After starting the first two games of the season in the absence of Lopez, Plumlee moved back to a bench role in the wake of Lopez's return until the starting center once again missed time during December, in which Plumlee was put back into the starting line-up. He subsequently scored a season-high 18 points and added 10 rebounds on December 12 in helping the Nets defeat the Philadelphia 76ers, 88–70. He surpassed his season high on December 23 with 19 points, while also grabbing a career-high 13 rebounds, in a 102–96 win over the Denver Nuggets. On January 12, 2015, he surpassed his season high again with a career-high 24 points in a 113–99 loss to the Houston Rockets.
