Jon Teske (born May 4, 1997) is an American former professional basketball player.

He played college basketball for the Michigan Wolverines.

Members of the 2010–11 Connecticut Huskies also played 41 games (an NCAA record).

With the win, the Wolverines improved to 16–0 on the season, matching the 2012–13 and 1985–86 teams for the school's best start to a season.

On August 7, 2014, he committed to Michigan via Twitter.

Teske signed his National Letters of Intent on November 11, 2015, on the same day as future teammates Austin Davis, Ibi Watson and Zavier Simpson.

Simpson, Watson and Teske were all named to the 2015–16 Associated Press Ohio high school Division I boys basketball all-state 1st team.

Teske logged just 61 minutes in 20 games for the 2016–17 Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team.

He was part of the 2017–18 team that reached the Championship Game of the 2018 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament.

Teske was a member of 2017 and 2018 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament champions during his first two seasons.

The team won the 2017 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament.

In the 2017 NCAA tournament, Michigan reached the round of 16 but lost to Oregon.

Following the season, D. J. Wilson declared early for the 2017 NBA draft and Mark Donnal left the program, making way for Teske and Austin Davis to compete for more playing time.

On November 16, 2017, Teske, who had previous career highs of four points and three rebounds, led the 2017–18 Wolverines with a 10-point, 11-rebound double-double in a victory against Southern Miss.

On December 16, Michigan defeated Detroit 90–58 as Teske made his first collegiate start (in place of Mo Wagner) and recorded his second career double-double (15 points and 10 rebounds); the game marked the first collegiate basketball game at Little Caesars Arena.

Michigan claimed their second consecutive Big Ten tournament championship at the 2018 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament, becoming the first team to win consecutive tournament championships since Ohio State in 2010 and 2011; in the championship game against (#8 AP Poll/#8 Coaches Poll) Purdue, Teske posted 14 points off the bench while matched up against Isaac Haas, when Wagner had foul trouble.

In the 2018 NCAA tournament, Teske played 17 minutes in a buzzer beater 64–63 victory over (#21 AP Poll/#19 Coaches Poll) Houston, including a two free throws as part of a rare five-point play to tie the score at 51 with 5:41 remaining.

Michigan reached the National Championship Game where it lost to (#2 Coaches Poll/#2 AP Poll) Villanova.

Teske was one of a few players from the Cleveland area (including former Wolverine Eric Riley) to have played in a championship game.

For the season, Teske averaged 12.3 minutes per game to go with 3.4 points and 3.3 rebounds.

Since the team reached the championship games of both the Big Ten tournament and the NCAA tournament, Teske shares the Michigan (and NCAA) single-season games played record (41) with teammates Duncan Robinson, Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman, Simpson and Charles Matthews.

In November 2018, Teske twice posted 5 blocked shots in a game: On November 10 against Holy Cross and November 28 against (#11/#13) North Carolina 84–67 in the ACC–Big Ten Challenge.

Teske first posted 17 points and made a three-point shot on November 18 in a win against Providence in the Hall of Fame Tip Off tournament championship game.

Teske again posted 17 points on December 1, against (#19/#18) Purdue in Michigan's Big Ten Conference season opener.

On December 4, Michigan defeated Northwestern 62–60.

When Teske experienced his first foul trouble of the season Michigan saw a comfortable win turn into a nailbiter as Northwestern posted a 13–2 run after Teske joined teammate Matthews on the sidelines with three fouls.

On January 10, 2019, Michigan defeated Illinois as Teske added 13 points and 11 rebounds, for his third career double-double, and first of the season.

Teske was not selected in the 2020 NBA draft and signed with the Orlando Magic for training camp.

He was waived before the start of the season and joined their NBA G League affiliate, the Lakeland Magic, with whom he won a championship with in 2021.

Teske joined Belgian team Filou Oostende in March 2021, but left the team before playing a single game.

He re-joined Orlando for training camp in September 2022 and played again for Lakeland after getting waived in October.

Teske also spent time with the Memphis Grizzlies on a 10-day contract in January 2022.

He retired from pro basketball after the 2021–22 season.

Teske lived in the Grand Rapids, Michigan suburb of Grandville until he was 10 and his family moved to Medina, Ohio.

Teske was 6ft 9in as a high school freshman and 6ft 11in as a sophomore before eclipsing 7ft as a junior for Medina High School.

Among Teske's advisors on his recruitment was his maternal grandfather, Jim Zuidema.
