Jamison Rudy Van Brewer (born November 19, 1980) is an American former professional basketball player. A point guard, he played four years in the National Basketball Association.
Brewer played two years of college basketball, attending Auburn University; in his last year, he averaged 8 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists.
Brewer was selected by the Indiana Pacers in the second round (40th overall) in the 2001 NBA draft.
During his three-year spell with the team, he only amassed 36 regular season games combined, spending most of the time in the injured reserve list, and averaging slightly more than two points. On December 20, 2003, he scored a career-high 12 points at the Minnesota Timberwolves, on 5-for-11 shooting (80–102 loss).
Brewer was signed as a restricted free agent by the New York Knicks in the 2004 off-season. After only 18 appearances, he was traded to the San Antonio Spurs in February 2005, being waived without any appearances. He was again signed by the Knicks prior to the start of 2005–06, being immediately cut.
Holding NBA career averages of 1.6 points, 1.0 assists and 0.9 rebounds, Brewer subsequently played – also shortly – with Croatia's KK Cibona (2006), Hollywood Fame (2006–07), Dexia Mons-Hainaut in Belgium (2007) and the NBA Development League's Bakersfield Jam (2007–08).
