Timeline
He was also named to the century-list, the "100 Legends of Illinois Basketball (1908–2007)".
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."
Jonathan James Scheyer (, born August 24, 1987) is an American basketball coach and former professional player who is the head coach for the Duke Blue Devils of the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC).
Scheyer attended Glenbrook North High School and led the Spartans to an Illinois High School Association Class AA state basketball championship as a junior, a 3rd-place finish in 2003 as a freshman, and an Elite Eight appearance in the state playoffs three out of four years from 2003 to 2006.
Scheyer was known as the "Jewish Jordan", and the Spartans' state championship team is the only high school state championship basketball squad in the nation known to have included an all-Jewish starting line-up.
Scheyer is the fourth-leading scorer in Illinois history with 3,034 points, and he is the only player in state history to finish his career ranked in the all-time top 10 in points (4th), rebounds, assists (6th), and steals (7th).
As a freshman, Scheyer led Glenbrook North in scoring and assists and 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 underclassman on any of the first three All-State squads.
As a junior, he averaged 26 points, five rebounds, and five assists.
His coach David Weber said, "I call him a combination of Larry Bird and 'Pistol' Pete (Maravich). He's got the flair, the passing abilities. He's got good size. He's a rare player in this day and age."
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, in an effort to keep alive his team's 35-game winning streak.
It has been called one of the best performances ever on a high school court.
As a senior, Scheyer averaged 32 points, six rebounds, five assists, and three steals.
One example of his dogged pursuit of excellence is that while in high school, Scheyer refused to leave the gym one night until he made 50 consecutive free throws.
After finally hitting 49 in a row, he missed on his final attempt.
His father encouraged him to join him and go home, but – as his coach recalled – "Jon looked at him and said, 'No. I'm starting over.' Then he stayed until he made 50 in a row."
The fourth-leading scorer in Illinois high school history, he led his team to a state championship in 2005, and was named Illinois Mr. Basketball in 2006.
During the same year, Scheyer was voted as one of the 100 Legends of the IHSA Boys Basketball Tournament, a group of former players and coaches in honor of the 100 anniversary of the IHSA boys basketball tournament.
He was named Illinois Mr. Basketball in 2006 by an overwhelming margin (receiving 217 votes, to 17 for the second-place finisher), a high school All-American, a two-time Gatorade state Player of the Year, and a three-time All-State selection.
He had a reputation as an exceptional 3-point shooter, a good defensive rebounder, and a big-game performer.
In naming him to the Illinois First-Team for the decade, ESPN wrote that he was "one of the greatest Illinois high school players of all-time".
A Chicago Sun-Times article observed:"Scheyer's offensive game is amazing ... He hits jumpers from all manner of pogo-stick angles. He can hit runners while shooting back across his body. He can drive and finish in acrobatic ways. His offensive repertoire of ways to score is like a magician's bag of tricks. Offensively, he is a modern-day 'Pistol' Pete Maravich."Scheyer was a 2006 Inductee into the National Jewish Sports Hall of Fame.
Scheyer's final four college choices were Arizona, Duke, Illinois, and Wisconsin.
On the one hand, his connection with Illinois was strengthened by the fact that his high school coach was Illinois coach Bruce Weber's brother.
In addition, when he had been in junior high school, he had really disliked Duke's team, because all his friends liked Duke and he wanted to be different.
Working in favor of Duke, however, was the fact that its assistant coach Chris Collins had also attended Glenbrook North.
He chose to attend Duke for college, where he moved from shooting guard to point guard toward the end of the 2008–09 season, and was the Most Valuable Player of the 2009 ACC men's basketball tournament.
As a player, Scheyer led his high school team to an Illinois state basketball championship as a high school All-American, and was the captain of the 2009–10 Duke Blue Devils that won the 2010 NCAA Basketball Championship, as a college All-American.
He was a prolific high school scorer, and later an Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) leader in numerous statistical categories, including free-throw percentage, three-point shots/game, and assists/turnover ratio.
In his senior year in 2009–10 as Duke's captain, he led the team to ACC regular season and tournament championships and the NCAA national championship.
He led the championship team in points per game, assists, free-throw percentage, and steals per game.
Scheyer was a 2010 consensus All-American (Second Team), a unanimous 2009–10 All-ACC First Team selection, and named to the 2010 ACC All-Tournament First Team.
Scheyer was born in Northbrook, Illinois, and is the youngest of three children of Laury and Jim Scheyer.
He was raised in his father's Jewish religion, and had a Bar Mitzvah.
He began dribbling a basketball at age three and played in his first AAU national tournament six years later.
As a youth, he played in a league called the Fellowship of Afro-American Men (FAAM), in Evanston, Illinois.
He received a scholarship offer from Marquette University's Tom Crean as an eighth-grader.
Because Scheyer's talent was obvious by the time he was set to start high school, many people encouraged his parents to move so he could attend a high school with a powerhouse basketball program.
The move was recommended so that he would have a greater chance of success.
Scheyer shrugged off the suggestion."
