High school career

edit

Jack attended four high schools, including DeMatha Catholic High School and St. Vincent Pallotti High School in Maryland, Mount Zion Academy in North Carolina, and Worcester Academy in Massachusetts.

Considered a four-star recruit by Scout.com, Jack was listed as the No. 9 point guard and the No. 40 player in the nation in 2002.[1]

College career

edit

After high school, Jack played for Georgia Tech in Atlanta.[2] In his sophomore year (2003–04), he helped guide Georgia Tech to the NCAA Finals with 12.5 points and 5.1 assists a game. In his junior and final year at Georgia Tech he averaged 15.5 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.5 assists.

After forgoing his senior year of eligibility at Georgia Tech to enter the NBA draft, Jack graduated on December 13, 2014, receiving his degree in business management at commencement ceremonies in Atlanta.[3]

Professional career

Portland Trail Blazers (2005–2008)

edit

After his junior year at Georgia Tech, he opted to enter the 2005 NBA draft and was selected by the Denver Nuggets with the 22nd pick. On draft night, he was traded to the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for their 27th pick (Linas Kleiza) and 35th pick (Ricky Sánchez).[4][5]

As a rookie in 2005–06, Jack backed up Steve Blake and Sebastian Telfair as a point guard, getting limited minutes. Blake was traded to the Milwaukee Bucks and Telfair was traded to the Boston Celtics in a multi-player trade during the 2006 off-season. In their absence, Jack was named starting point guard by coach Nate McMillan for the 2006–07 season, dramatically increasing his minutes and stats. With Blake's return in 2007–08, however, Jack was once again relegated to sixth man.

Indiana Pacers (2008–2009)

edit

On July 9, 2008, Jack was traded to the Indiana Pacers along with Josh McRoberts and 2008 NBA draft pick Brandon Rush for Ike Diogu and Jerryd Bayless.[6]

Toronto Raptors (2009–2010)

edit

On July 13, 2009, Jack signed a 4-year, $20 million offer sheet with the Toronto Raptors.[7] The Pacers had seven days to match the offer, and they chose not to.[8]

New Orleans Hornets (2010–2012)

edit

On November 20, 2010, Jack was traded to the New Orleans Hornets, along with Marcus Banks and David Andersen for Peja Stojaković and Jerryd Bayless.[9]

Golden State Warriors (2012–2013)

edit

On July 11, 2012, Jack was traded to the Golden State Warriors in a three-team trade including the Philadelphia 76ers, who received Dorell Wright from Golden State. The Hornets received the right to Edin Bavčić in the deal.[10]

On February 22, 2013, Jack recorded a double-double with 30 points and 10 assists against the Spurs and became the first bench player to record such numbers since Magic Johnson in 1996.[11]

At the end of season, Jack finished third in the Sixth Man of the Year voting.[12]

Cleveland Cavaliers (2013–2014)

edit

On July 12, 2013, Jack signed with the Cleveland Cavaliers.[13] On April 15, 2014, he was named the recipient of the ninth annual Austin Carr Good Guy Award. The award, named after Cavaliers legend Austin Carr, is designed to recognize a Cavaliers player who is cooperative and understanding of the media.[14]

Brooklyn Nets (2014–2016)

edit

On July 10, 2014, the Cleveland Cavaliers traded Jack to the Brooklyn Nets in a three-team trade also involving the Boston Celtics, as they needed to clear cap space to re-sign LeBron James. This is the second trade involving Jack where the team trading him away received the rights to Edin Bavčić in return.[15] Hours after graduating from Georgia Tech on December 13, 2014, Jack travelled to Charlotte to join his teammates for their game against the Hornets. In 20 minutes of action off the bench, he recorded 14 points, 5 assists, and 2 rebounds to help the Nets win 114–87.[16]

On November 14, 2015, Jack scored a season-high 28 points in an overtime loss to the Golden State Warriors.[17] On January 3, 2016, he was ruled out for the rest of the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament and small medial meniscus tear in his right knee. He sustained the injury the previous night during the second half of the Nets' game at Boston.[18] On June 30, 2016, Jack was waived by the Nets.[19]

On July 15, 2016, Jack signed with the Atlanta Hawks.[20] However, on October 20, 2016, he was waived by the Hawks due to injury. He had been unable to practice during training camp due to torn right knee ligaments he suffered in 2015–16, and subsequently sat out all seven of the Hawks' exhibition games during the preseason.[21][22]

Return to New Orleans (2017)

edit

On February 24, 2017, Jack signed a 10-day contract with the New Orleans Pelicans, returning to the franchise for a second stint.[23] However, on March 3, 2017, he was ruled out for four to six weeks after suffering a right lateral meniscus tear.[24]

New York Knicks (2017–2018)

edit

On September 15, 2017, Jack signed with the New York Knicks.[25] On November 24, 2017, he had 10 points and a season-high 14 assists against the Atlanta Hawks. On December 10, 2017, also against the Hawks, Jack scored a season-high 19 points.[26] On January 10, 2018, he recorded his first triple-double in six years with 16 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists in a 122–119 double overtime loss to the Chicago Bulls.[27] Four days later, he set a new season high with 22 points in a 123–118 overtime loss to the New Orleans Pelicans.[28]

Jack signed with the Pelicans on September 19, 2018,[29] before being waived on October 13.[30]

Sioux Falls Skyforce (2019–2020)

edit

On March 5, 2019, Jack was acquired by the Sioux Falls Skyforce of the NBA G League.[31] In his lone appearance for the Skyforce, Jack tore the ACL and lateral meniscus as well as spraining the MCL in his left knee, which ruled him out for the rest of the season.[32]

On November 26, 2019, Jack was acquired again by the Sioux Falls Skyforce.[33]
