He must be a VERY average player, because his stats were some of the best at the combine, and he doesn't even have completed profiles, meaning he probably isn't projected to be drafted.

Athletic, but that's about it.

He's surprised in draft camp play but is strictly a role player, never did a huge amount at Indiana or Georgetown.

[Marcus Bryant]

Heading into tomorrow night's NBA draft, Patrick Ewing Jr. doesn't care if he's called a role player -- as long as some team simply picks up the phone and calls him.

Ewing, who finished his college career as a senior at Georgetown last season, may not be selected in the two-round draft, but he's optimistic that he'll get a chance to show what he can do in summer league play and later in some team's fall training camp.

To make his case, the 6-foot-8, 240-pound Ewing has crisscrossed the country for workouts with the Chicago Bulls, Charlotte Bobcats, Detroit Pistons, Portland Trail Blazers, San Antonio Spurs, Seattle SuperSonics, Minnesota Timberwolves, Sacramento Kings and New Orleans Hornets.
