High school career
Plumlee played all four years of his high school basketball career at Christ School in Arden, North Carolina, and was the only Plumlee brother to win four state championships during his time there. While Plumlee played for the Greenies, they had a record of 139 wins and 11 losses.
Recruitment
Plumlee decided to follow in his brothers' footsteps and committed to play basketball at Duke University on July 11, 2010. He chose Duke over Florida, Michigan, Indiana, and Notre Dame.
Plumlee was ranked highly by every major recruiting website; ESPN ranked him as the #36 player in the country, author Art Chansky called him a borderline top 50 prospect in Duke – Carolina – the Blue Blood Rivalry, the Master Collection, while Scout.com ranked him as the #68 player in the country, and Rivals.com ranked him as the #79 player in the country.
Plumlee was a part of a five-player recruiting class for Duke in 2011, which also included Austin Rivers, Alex Murphy, Quinn Cook, and Michael Gbinije. Duke's class was the second-best recruiting class in 2011, according to ESPNU.
College career
In Plumlee's freshman year at Duke, both of his brothers were on the team and Marshall redshirted. He made his debut in 2012–13, but was limited by a stress fracture in his foot. In Plumlee's junior year he saw limited action, playing 8.5 minutes per game in 30 contests. By his senior year, Plumlee had developed into a steady inside defender, used to spell freshman phenom Jahlil Okafor and contributing to Duke's national championship victory over Wisconsin. During his final season at Duke, Plumlee served as a team captain along with Amile Jefferson and Matt Jones.
New York Knicks (2016–2017)
After going undrafted in the 2016 NBA draft, Plumlee joined the New York Knicks for the 2016 NBA Summer League. On July 8, 2016, he signed with the Knicks. During his rookie season, he had multiple assignments to the Westchester Knicks of the NBA Development League. Plumlee made his NBA debut on November 20, 2016 against the Atlanta Hawks. He was rushed into the city from his D-League assignment when starting center Joakim Noah was sent home due to illness. He gathered a rebound and committed a foul in five minutes of action in a win over the Hawks. On July 7, 2017, he was waived by the Knicks.
National team
Plumlee played with the senior United States national team at the 2017 FIBA AmeriCup, where he won a gold medal.
Personal life
Plumlee grew up with brothers Miles and Mason, and they reunited during the 2011–12 basketball season at Duke University; they also have a sister named Madeleine, who plays volleyball at the University of Notre Dame. They were only the third trio of brothers to play on the same college basketball team at the same time.
His parents are Millard "Perky" (a former Tennessee Tech basketball player) and Leslie Plumlee (a former Purdue women's basketball player who set the school single-game rebound record with 25). The two met at a basketball camp during the summer of 1979. His grandfather Albert "Bud" Schultz played basketball at Michigan Tech (1944), his uncle William Schultz played basketball at Wisconsin-Eau Claire (1971–72), and his uncle Chad Schultz played basketball at Wisconsin-Oshkosh (1983–86).
