Antoine Glen Joubert
High school career
Joubert was born in Detroit and attended Southwestern High School in the Southwest Detroit area. Joubert played predominantly basketball at Southwestern, but he also played American football, beginning in his junior year.[7] Joubert was part of the varsity basketball team since his freshman year in the 1979–80 season:[8] he played 20 games and recorded 123 points (6.1 per game) and 93 rebounds (4.6 per game).[9] He became one of the main players on the team in his sophomore year,[10] playing as a center, since the guard spot was taken by highly ranked senior Leslie Rockymore.[11] He averaged 19.4 points (446 total) and 10.4 rebounds (239 total) in 23 games, winning the Public School League championship.[9]
In his junior season, Joubert established himself as one of the best players of his class.[12][13][14][15] He moved to play in the backcourt and averaged 30.6 points, scoring 825 total points in the season, one of the highest single-season marks in Michigan high school basketball history.[6] He also posted averages of 16 rebounds and 7 assists per game, shooting 64% from the field,[12] and won his second Public School League championship.[9] He scored 48 points against Wyandotte in the 1982 Class A district finals; his team won, 78–59.[12][16] He was described as an all-around player who could shoot, defend and score with both hands.[13][14]
As a senior, Joubert was ranked among the top-5 players in the nation in the 1983 class, with some recruiting services ranking him as number 1 overall.[12][17][18] In his senior year, he averaged 31.3 points per game (814 total points in 26 games), another of the all-time best performances in Michigan high school basketball;[6] during the Class A playoffs he scored 44 points in the semifinal game on March 25, 1983, against Southfield, and on March 27 he scored 47 points in the final game against Flint Central.[19][20] During that game, he shot 20/40 from the field; despite his scoring effort, his team lost, 80–84.[4] His 47 points were the most scored in a state final, and the second-best behind Bob Bolton's 50 points scored in the Quarterfinals in 1956.[19] As of 2019, this performance is third-best overall in postseason state games behind Bolton's 50 points and Keith Appling's 49 (established in 2009 in the state final).[19][21] He also averaged 14 rebounds and 7 assists during his senior season.[22]

As a freshman, Joubert started 22 of 33 games, playing 26.5 minutes and averaging 9 points, 2.1 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game; he participated in the 1984 NIT, during which he scored a then career-high 18 points (including 6/6 on free throws) against Xavier in the tournament quarterfinals, and scored 17 points against Virginia Tech in the semifinals.[28] In the final game against Notre Dame, Joubert scored 12 points, the second-best on his team behind Roy Tarpley's 18, and Michigan won the tournament.[29]

In the 1986 Tournament, Joubert debuted with 12 points against Akron, and scored 11 points (on 5/8 shooting) in the loss against Iowa State.[38] At the end of the season he was an Honorable Mention All-Big Ten selection.[39]

With the introduction of the three-point line, Joubert shot 3.5 threes per game, with a 35.7% three-point shooting percentage for the season. Joubert also played during the 1987 NCAA tournament, scoring 6 points against Navy on March 12, and a personal tournament-high 20 points (7/18 from the field), along with 6 rebounds and 3 assists, in the loss to North Carolina on March 14.[42] For the second consecutive season, Joubert was an Honorable Mention All-Big Ten selection.[43]
