Jonathan James "Jon" Scheyer (born August 24, 1987, in Northbrook, Illinois) is a 6' 5" guard on Duke men's basketball team, who moved over from shooting guard to point guard towards the end of the 2008-09 season.
A high school All-American, he once scored 21 points in 75 seconds of play during a high school game. The 4th-leading scorer in Illinois state history, and named Illinois Mr. Basketball, he was heavily recruited by colleges. He chose Duke, for whom he was the MVP of the 2009 Atlantic Coast Conference tournament.
In his senior year in 2009-10, he is Duke's starting point guard and Captain. Scheyer is the only college basketball player under consideration for each of the Oscar Robertson Trophy, the John R. Wooden Award, the Naismith Trophy, the Lowe's Senior CLASS Award, and the Bob Cousy Award as of March 2010.
He was a unanimous 2009-10 All-ACC First Team selection, was named to the 2009-10 Sporting News All-America Second Team, and was named to the U.S. Basketball Writers Association 2009-10 All-District team.
Early life
He is the youngest of three children of Jim and Laury Scheyer. Scheyer began dribbling a basketball at age 3, and played in his first AAU national tournament six years later.
- Grade school
Scheyer received a scholarship offer from Marquette University as an 8th grader.
High school career
Scheyer attended Glenbrook North High School, which Duke assistant coach Chris Collins had also attended.
Scheyer led the Glenbrook North Spartans to an Elite Eight appearance in the state playoffs three out of four years from 2003-06, including a 3rd place finish in 2003 as a freshman, and an Illinois state championship as a junior. The Glenbrook North Spartans state championship team is the only high school state championship basketball squad known to have included an all-Jewish starting line-up (in Illinois or any other U.S. state).
As a freshman, he led Glenbrook North in scoring and assists. He was First Team All-State as a sophomore in 2004. Scheyer was the only non-senior among those First Team All-State selections, and was the only underclassmen on any of the first three All-State squads. As a junior, he averaged 26 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists. He averaged 32 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 steals for the Spartans as a senior.
Scheyer rose to national fame in his senior year by scoring 21 points in 75 seconds of play during a one-man comeback effort in the last minute and a half of a high school game against Proviso West High School. He averaged 29 points per game his senior year.
He is the 4th-leading scorer in Illinois state history, with 3,034 points, and is the only player in state history to finish his career ranked in the all-time top 10 in points, rebounds, steals, and assists. He was a high school All-American. In 2006, Scheyer was named Illinois Mr. Basketball.
He was noted for his exceptional 3-point shooting, and his performance in big games. Scheyer was a rangy, slick passer, and a good defensive rebounder.
ESPN, in naming him to the Illinois First-Team for the decade, wrote that he was "one of the greatest Illinois high school players of all-time." Illinois Warriors coach Larry Butler said: "Jon Scheyer is one of the most prolific scorers I've seen in Illinois high school basketball. He was just the ultimate team player. Jon Scheyer would take the shirt off his back to win a game."
College career

| Year | G | PPG | RPG | APG | FG% | FT% | 3P% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2006-07 | 33 | 12.2 | 3.3 | 1.8 | 39.8 | 84.6 | 36.3 |

| 2008-09 | 37 | 14.9 | 3.6 | 2.8 | 39.7 | 83.6 | 38.5 |
Scheyer's final four college choices were Arizona, Duke, Illinois, and Wisconsin; he ultimately chose to attend Duke. Interestingly, his high school coach was Illinois coach Bruce Weber's brother, David Weber.
- 2006-07
Scheyer in 2006-07 was in the Duke Blue Devils starting lineup as a freshman, started all 33 games, and led the team in 3-pt field goals attempted, free throws attempted, and free throw percentage (.846; third in the Atlantic Coast Conference). He also tied for second on the team with 39 steals.
He was an ACC All-Freshman Team selection, and three-time ACC Rookie of the Week selection. He tied the Duke freshman record with 115 free throws, and had a string of 40 consecutive free throws, the third-longest streak in Duke history. Scheyer averaged 12.2 points, third on the team.
Though not naturally a point guard, Scheyer spent some time playing the point due to lack of depth at that position. "It made me more of a complete player ..." Scheyer said. "It made me more confident bringing the ball up the court. It was a learning experience."
Scheyer scored a season-high 26 points in a loss to North Carolina on February 7, 2007.
- 2007-08
Despite the fact that Scheyer started as a freshman, Coach Mike Krzyzewski chose to start Gerald Henderson, Jr. in Scheyer's place for the majority of the season. Scheyer started only one game his sophomore season, but played in all 34 games. He averaged the third-most minutes-per-game on the team (28.3), was fourth in scoring (11.7), and was widely hailed as one of the country's top sixth men. His free throw percentage (.889) was 2nd in the ACC, 12th in the nation, and 5th-best in school history. He scored a season-high 27 points against Miami in a one-point loss. He also scored 22 of his 27 points in the second half against the Hurricanes, matching the most points by a player off the bench in Duke history. He also averaged 3.9 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 1.4 steals per game. Scheyer registered a team-best 2.24:1 assist-to-turnover ratio.
- 2008-09
Scheyer was named one of three captains of the Duke Blue Devils for the 2008-09 season. Scheyer scored his 1,000th career point in a victory over Davidson on January 7, 2009. He scored a career-high 36 points in a victory over Gardner Webb.
In the team's 36 games, Scheyer led the Blue Devils in minutes, free throws, free throw percentage (.841), 3-point field goals, 3-point field goal percentage (.395), assists, and assists per game (2.8). He also averaged 14.9 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.5 steals per game.
On February 19 against St. John's, Scheyer was moved from shooting guard where he had played 91 games to point guard, where he played extremely well for the last 9 games of the season and into the post-season. As a point guard, he averaged 19.7 points and 2.5 assists and committed just 1 turnover a game. Florida State coach Leonard Hamilton said he thought Scheyer had a “calming” influence on the team's offense. He is big enough, when pressured, to put a smaller defender on his hip and still get the ball up court. Once he gets up court and gives up the ball, he becomes an option himself on the perimeter for other driving players. And on defense he is big enough to bother most guards attempting to shoot over him.
Scheyer was named the MVP of the 2009 Atlantic Coast Conference tournament, after scoring 29 points in the title game.
"He's a great competitor," Krzyzewski said after the season. "He handles the ball real well. He scores - he scored more when he was bringing the ball up than when he didn't bring the ball up. I think the more the ball is in Jon's hands, the better."
Reflecting his off-the-court accomplishments, Scheyer was a 2009 ACC Academic Honor Roll selection.
- 2009-10
Scheyer was once again named captain, along with Lance Thomas. Commenting on his play, Coach Krzyzewski said: "He understands, which most kids, believe me, do not, the value of the ball. He makes really good decisions with the ball, whether it's a pass, a shot, or the time on the clock." And: "Some of the plays he makes—you might not think he's that fast, but he has great body control."
On December 2, 2009, he became the first Duke player to record 1,400 points, 400 rebounds, 250 assists, 200 3-point field goals, and 150 steals for a career. On December 16, he scored 24 of a career-high 36 points in the first half, to lead Duke past Gardner-Webb. He shot 11-of-13, and hit a career-best seven 3-pointers, while grabbing eight rebounds and dishing out nine assists.
As of December 19, he was leading the nation with a 6.4:1 assist-turnover ratio. As of January 5, he was leading Duke in steals.
Jay Bilas of ESPN picked Scheyer as starting guard on his mid-season First-Team All-American team in January 2010, writing:
No player in the country has been as efficient with the ball as Scheyer has been... e consistently makes good passes and good decisions. Scheyer leads the nation with a 4.8-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio, and when guarded by smaller point guards he will work off the ball, and take advantage of defenders not used to playing off the ball.... Scheyer is averaging 20 points per game, 3.5 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.2 steals, and he is knocking down 46 percent of his shots, 41 percent of his 3-balls, and 91 percent of his free throws. He is making three 3-point field goals and five free throws per game. There are several other guards who are having great seasons ... but there aren't many who have had comparable seasons to date.
ESPN play-by-play announcer Dan Schulman said: "He's not your prototypical break-you-down-off-the-dribble with blow-by speed kind of point guard. I would describe him as a very cerebral player, a very unselfish player ... He's been one of the most effective point guards in America." And ESPN's Doug Gottlieb said Scheyer was "making an interesting case for national player of the year."
On February 15, 2010, Scheyer became the only player to win the ACC Player of the Week award three times in the 2009-10 season, after shooting 62% from 3-point range for the week; it was the fourth time he won the award in his career.
After facing him, North Carolina point guard Larry Drew said: "He's as crafty as you can get. You just don't like playing against players like that. He can shoot the ball well. He's quick enough. He's smart. He knows about angles. He's a good actor. And he can shoot." University of Maryland coach Gary Williams said:
Scheyer’s like an old-time guard ... in that he does everything, in terms of handling the ball, shooting the ball, playing defense.... that’s what makes him so tough, because he can do all those things and do them at a very high level for almost 40 minutes every game... It's almost like having more than one player on the court.
ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Williams said in early March: "Scheyer’s been great, he’s deserving of being the NCAA Player of the Year, maybe a co-Player of the Year with Greivis Vasquez."
As of March 10, he was the only player in the ACC to rank in the top 5 in seven statistical categories: free throw percentage (first, .889), three-point field goals (first, 2.9 3pg.), assist-to-turnover ratio (first, 3.0:1), minutes (second, 36.5 mpg.), scoring (third, 18.7 ppg.), three-point field goal percentage (third, .399), and assists (fourth, 5.2 apg). He was also tied for second in the ACC with 15 games with 20 or more points scored, and had reached double figures in 30 of 31 games for the season.
As of March 12, he was on target to be the 9th player in Duke history to average double figures for four seasons, and the 10th to top 2,000 points. He was in 2nd place on Duke's career free throw list (and 5th in ACC history), and on pace to finish 4th at Duke (and 10th in ACC history) in 3-pointers made.
- 2010 Awards
He was a unanimous 2010 All-ACC First Team selection. He was second in voting for the 2010 ACC Player of the Year Award, to Greivis Vasquez of the University of Maryland. He was also named to the U.S. Basketball Writers Association 2009-10 All-District team.
Scheyer was named to the Sporting News 2009-10 All-America Second Team.

Scheyer is one of 6 finalists for the 2010 Bob Cousy Award. It is awarded to the top men's college point guard annually by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. The selection committee, made up of top college basketball personnel including Hall of Famers, head coaches, sports information directors, and members of the media, will pick the winner, who will be announced on April 1.
Pro potential
According to Doug Gottlieb of ESPN, Scheyer "is probably not an NBA player, but his Jewish faith allows him to get an Israeli passport and he would be one of the most coveted players EVER for a team like Maccabi Tel Aviv."
David Thorpe, ESPN's resident expert on NBA rookies and noted trainer of NBA prospects, differs with Gottlieb. He notes most NBA teams would benefit by having Scheyer on their team as a sixth man. Chad Ford, ESPN's draft expert, rates Scheyer within the top-60 NBA prospects.
