Je'lon Hornbeak (born May 1, 1994) is an American professional basketball player who most recently played for the Fort Wayne Mad Ants of the NBA G League. He played college basketball for Oklahoma and Monmouth.
Hornbeak was a four-star recruit out of Grace Prep and committed to Oklahoma. He played two seasons for the Sooners and was a part of two NCAA Tournament teams. Hornbeak averaged 5.1 points and 2.6 assists as a sophomore coming off the bench after starting most of his freshman year.[1] After his sophomore season he transferred to Monmouth and sat out a season per NCAA regulations, undergoing surgery on his right foot in October 2014. On December 15, 2015 Hornbeak scored a season-high 18 points in an 83–68 upset of Georgetown. He was indefinitely suspended by coach King Rice for conduct detrimental to the team on January 2, 2016.[2] Hornbeak returned to the lineup on January 12.[3] He helped fill in for Deon Jones, who missed five games with a hand injury.[4] Hornbeak averaged 8.9 points per game as a redshirt junior, helping the team to a 28–8 record and NIT berth.[5] As a senior, Hornbeak averaged 11.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.5 steals per game.[6]
After going undrafted in the 2017 NBA draft, Hornbeak attended an open tryout for the Fort Wayne Mad Ants of the NBA G League in September and made the team. He scored 18 points in a 104–77 victory over Raptors 905 in November.[6] On February 14, 2019, Hornbeak was suspended five games for violating the league's anti-drug policy.[7]
