Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Amile O. Jefferson is the son of Malcolm Musgrove and Quetta Jefferson. Amile's father, Malcolm, played collegiate ball at Delaware State. Jefferson has one brother and four sisters. The big forward left Duke with two degrees. He first graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in history and then earned a Master of Arts in Christian Studies from the Duke Divinity School. Jefferson was a three-time team captain for Duke and part of their 2015 NCAA Championship squad. He's the only player in Duke history to be named to the All-ACC Academic Team four times. Follow Amile on Twitter and Instagram via @AmileJefferson. Jefferson entered Duke as a McDonald's All-American and saw seven starts in his freshman season. He averaged more than 6.1 points and 5.8 rebounds in each of the next two seasons, and his junior year ended with Duke hoisting the 2015 NCAA National Championship trophy. Jefferson returned for his senior year and averaged a double-double over his first nine games, but his season was ultimately cut short due to a foot injury. He was granted one more year of eligibility by the NCAA and remained a key factor in Duke's frontcourt with averages of 10.9 points and 8.1 rebounds. It was a stellar Duke career, with Jefferson amassing 1,079 total points and 944 total rebounds over 150 games. Jefferson went undrafted in the 2017 NBA Draft but later signed with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
