Gregory Joshue Echenique Carrillo (born November 20, 1990) is a Venezuelan professional basketball player who plays for Guaros de Lara of the Venezuelan Liga Profesional de Baloncesto (LPB).
Echenique played college basketball at Rutgers University, with the Rutgers Scarlet Knights from 2008 to 2009, and at Creighton University, with the Creighton Bluejays, from 2010 to 2013.
After going undrafted in the 2013 NBA Draft, Echenique signed with the German team MHP Riesen Ludwigsburg, that played in the Basketball Bundesliga. He was cut by the team in December 2013, after playing 10 games with the team.
In January 2014, he signed a two-month contract with Belgian club Telenet Oostende, the defending Belgian League champion. After this period, he left to play in Puerto Rico for Vaqueros de Bayamon, but when he didn't receive a visa immediately, he continued to train with them and support them at their games on the bench. After the injury of Brent Wright, he returned to the roster of Telenet Oostende in April 2014. On December 27, 2014, he parted ways with Oostende. A day later, he signed with Venezuelan team Guaros de Lara.
He won the 2016 FIBA Americas League championship and the 2016 edition of the FIBA Intercontinental Cup championship with Guaros de Lara.
