High school and junior college career
Nesbitt, a 5'9" point guard, led Deerfield Beach High School in Deerfield Beach, Florida to a 34-1 record and a 6A state championship as a senior. However, as an academic non-qualifier he was not recruited to play college basketball and instead worked a series of retail jobs until Georgia Southern coach Jeff Price helped him enroll at Compton College. Nesbitt excelled in his year in junior college, averaging 26.6 points and 3.4 assists per game.[1]
College career
In 2003, Nesbitt moved to Georgia Southern, where as a sophomore in 2003–04 he averaged 15.7 points and helped the team to a 21-8 record.[1] As a junior, he became one of the top scorers in the Southern Conference (SoCon).

As a junior, Nesbitt again raised his level of play. He led the SoCon in scoring at 21.7 points per game, including a 43-point game against Chattanooga.[1] Nesbitt's scoring prowess helped the Eagles to the 2006 National Invitation Tournament, the school's first postseason appearance in 14 seasons.[3] At the close of the regular season, Nesbitt was named Southern Conference Player of the Year by both the league's media and coaches.[4] He was also named an honorable mention All-American by the Associated Press.[5]
Professional career
After the close of his college career, Nesbitt was not selected in the 2006 NBA draft. He instead signed on to play with the Sioux Falls Skyforce of the NBA Development League.
