Charlotte Bobcats jersey history No. 2 Dontell Jefferson 2008-2009

Dontell Jefferson played in just NBA games during his career, all of which came with the Charlotte Bobcats during the 2008-2009 season.

In the 2008-2009 NBA season, Charlotte Bobcats guard Dontell Jefferson wore jersey number 2. After playing two seasons of college basketball at Arkansas, Jefferson attempted to enter the NBA as an undrafted free agent. At the age of 25, the team signed him from the D-League towards the close of March. Despite signing the contract less than a month before the regular season, Jefferson appeared in only six games.

During that time, he averaged 4.8 points, 2 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.7 steals, and 0.2 blocks per game, while spending an average of 14 minutes on the court. Unable to secure another NBA opportunity after his brief stint with the Bobcats, Jefferson went on to play for various teams in Canada, Latvia, and Saudi Arabia.
