He played college basketball for the Duke Blue Devils.

High school career[edit]

At DeSoto High School, Bolden supplied per-game averages of 23.4 points, 10.2 rebounds and 2.6 blocked shots as a senior,[1] helping his team win the Texas Class 6A state title, while earning Texas Mr. Basketball[2] and TABC 6A Player of the Year honors. He had eight points and five rebounds in the 2016 Jordan Brand Classic[3] and tallied 13 points as well as seven boards at the McDonald's All-American Game the same year.[4]

Ranked 8th overall in the 2016 high school class by Scout.com, 11th overall by Rivals and 16th overall by ESPN, Bolden committed to Duke in May 2016.[5]

College career[edit]

Bolden had to sit out the first eight games of the 2016–17 season due to a leg injury,[6] before making his debut against Maine on December 3, 2016, scoring seven points and five rebounds.[7] He missed the NCAA Tournament due to illness[8] and averaged 1.5 points and 1.1 rebounds (24 games) as a freshman.[9]

As a sophomore, Bolden averaged 3.9 points and 3.6 rebounds per game, playing behind Wendell Carter Jr. and Marvin Bagley III.[10] On June 25, 2018, coach Mike Krzyzewski said he thought he would be one of the best big men in the upcoming season.[11] As a junior in 2018–19, he saw action in 35 games (21 starts) with the Blue Devils, averaging 5.3 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.7 blocks in 19.1 minutes per game.[12] In April 2019, Bolden announced his participation in the 2019 NBA draft.[13]
