A 6-foot-2 guard from Toronto, Ont., Duvivier attended St. Michael’s College School. Duvivier enjoyed a decorated high school career as he was named St. Michael’s most valuable player four times as part of a high school tenure that saw the team win four league championships. Duvivier began garnering national recognition during his high school career as he represented Canada at both the 2011 International Basketball Federation (FIBA) Americas U16 and 2012 FIBA U17 World Championships. In addition to starring for St. Michael’s, Duvivier was a standout for CIA Bounce, a notable Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) program that has helped foster NBA talents such as Andrew Wiggins, Tristan Thompson, Jamal Murray, Dillon Brooks and more.

Duvivier began his collegiate career at Oregon State University (OSU) where he developed a reputation as a highflying and physical guard capable of soaring above defenders for both rebounds and dunks during his time with the Beavers from 2013-16. Duvivier posted averages of 6.6 points, two rebounds and two assists per game on 38.9 and 35.1 per cent shooting from field goal and three-point range, respectively.

In his final season with the Beavers, Duvivier helped lead OSU to its first appearance in the March Madness NCAA Division I men’s basketball tournament since 1990.

Duvivier would then transfer to the University of Akron where he suited up for the Zips. Duvivier enjoyed the best season of his collegiate career with the Zips as he averaged 14.3 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 3.1 assists while connecting on 39 and 37.3 per cent of his field goal and three-point attempts. 

“I’d like to thank Coach Julius and the Bandits organization for the opportunity to be part of a team that prioritizes a family-first approach. I am keen to bring my tenacity on both sides of the ball and to contribute toward a team culture that is built on the foundation of togetherness and toughness,” Duvivier said.

Duvivier began his professional career with the Halifax Hurricanes in 2018-19 and made the NBLC All-Rookie team after a solid campaign where he averaged 8.2 points, two rebounds and two assists per game. This past 2019-20 season Duvivier played for the Subdury Five where he continued to develop as a professional, boosting his averages to 9.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game.

“I’m very excited to work with Malcolm. He is a highly underrated Canadian pro with a high level of athleticism and big-time toughness,” Bandits Head Coach and General Manager Kyle Julius said. “Malcolm is also a very good defender and will help us on both sides of the ball. Malcolm fits our grit and grind perfectly.”

The Bandits are set to begin their second season in the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) this upcoming summer.
