Patrick Aloysius Ewing Jr. (born May 20, 1984) is a Jamaican-American professional basketball player. He is the oldest son of retired Basketball Hall of Famer and New York Knicks legend Patrick Ewing and Sharon Campbell. He is currently a free agent. He has three brothers and three sisters.
He first attended the Windward School in White Plains, New York before going to Holy Innocents' Episcopal School, Marietta High School in Georgia, and National Christian Academy in Maryland.
He signed with Indiana University on May 1, 2003. He played two seasons at Indiana before following his father's footsteps by transferring to Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. in 2005. Under the NCAA transfer rules, Ewing had to sit out the 2005–06 season. He returned in 2006–07 season, playing 36 games for the Hoyas.
In the 2007–08 season, he participated in the College Slam Dunk Contest at St. Mary's University in San Antonio, Texas during Final Four weekend. As a senior with the Hoyas, Ewing averaged 6.1 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 34 games, winning the Big East Sixth Man of the Year award. Ewing cites the Hoyas offense as the reason why his offensive numbers were low in comparison to what he would go on to average in the D-League.
