Pierre Deshawn Jackson (born August 29, 1991) is an American basketball player who played for Anhui Wenyi Oriental Dragons of the National Basketball League. He played college basketball for the College of Southern Idaho and Baylor University in which he was one of the top college players in the 2012–13 season.

Following stints in Europe and the NBA D-League, Jackson played one season in the NBA with the Dallas Mavericks.

High school and junior college career

Jackson attended Desert Pines High School in Las Vegas. Following a standout career, where he led the state of Nevada in assists as a senior, he went to the College of Southern Idaho (CSI). At CSI, Jackson led the Golden Eagles to a National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) National Championship in 2011, earning tournament MVP honors. He averaged 18.6 points and 4.4 assists per game in 2010–11 and was named a first-team All-American and the NJCAA Player of the Year at the conclusion of the season.[1]

College career

After concluding his junior college career, Jackson moved to Baylor to complete his college career. He had a strong junior campaign for the Bears, averaging 13.8 points and 5.9 assists in the 2011–12 season. He helped lead Baylor to the Elite Eight of the 2012 NCAA Tournament, where they lost to eventual champions Kentucky. Jackson was named second team All-Big 12 Conference and an honorable mention All-American by the Associated Press.[2]

Jackson returned to Baylor for his senior season in 2012–13. He was named the Big 12 preseason Player of the Year[3] and was named to the preseason watch lists for the Wooden[4] and Naismith[5] national player of the year awards.

On April 4, 2013, Jackson ended his college career with a championship win over Iowa at the National Invitation Tournament (NIT). As a senior, he averaged 19.8 points and 7.1 assists per game.[6]

Professional career

D-League and Turkey

Jackson was selected with the 42nd overall pick in the 2013 NBA draft by the Philadelphia 76ers. On July 12, 2013, his draft rights were traded, along with Jrue Holiday, to the New Orleans Pelicans in exchange for Nerlens Noel.[7] Two days later, he joined the Pelicans for the 2013 NBA Summer League.[8]

On July 27, 2013, Jackson signed a one-year deal with ASVEL Villeurbanne of the LNB Pro A.[9] However, he left the team in September 2013 before appearing in a game for them.[10]

This surpassed the previous record of 53 by Morris Almond (2008) and Will Conroy (2009).[15][16] This effort also established the single-half (2nd) record of 38 points. Although the single-game record was surpassed twice in 2016 (first by Jordan McRae, with 61, and then by Russ Smith, with 65), the single-half record stood until Tarik Phillip posted 39 in a half on February 24, 2019.[17]

On July 15, 2015, Jackson re-signed with the 76ers after averaging 12 points per game in two Las Vegas Summer League games.[27] However, he was later waived by the 76ers on October 26 after appearing in three preseason games.[28]
