Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference

Jonte Flowers was one of the best NCAA Division II players on some of the best NCAA Division II basketball teams ever to take the floor. Flowers struck fear in the hearts of opposing guards, racking up 414 career steals, which still stands as the NCAA Division II record and is second all-time across all three NCAA levels. Offensively, Flowers was equally effective over his four years at WSU, scoring 1,882 points (4th all-time), while collecting nine different All-America awards, most notably a 2008 Daktronics 1st Team All-America honor.  Flowers was part of two national championships, a national finalist team and part of run of 57 straight wins, an NCAA Division II record. 

Flowers earned the NSIC Defensive Player of the Year awards in each of his four Warrior seasons, standing as the only four-time Player of Year selection in any NSIC basketball award category. Flowers is a three-time Winona State Hall of Fame inductee after he was also admitted in 2018 as a key member of “The Run” which included the Warriors’ 2006-08 teams and in 2020 as an individual. 

Upon graduation from Winona State, the Madison, Wisconsin native went on to a successful professional career in Europe, suiting up for ten teams over the course of 11 seasons.  

Flowers now works as a licensed real estate professional with the At Home Real Estate Team of Keller Williams Premier Northern Suburban and is an Owner/Elite Trainer of Next Level Basketball Training.  He and his wife Jennifer reside in Marshall, Minnesota with their daughter Ayanna and son Kellen.
