Patrick Ewing, Jr. (born May 20, 1985 in Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.) is an American collegiate basketball player. He is the son of retired NBA great Patrick Ewing and Sharon Campbell. He has three brothers and three sisters.


He is a 6-foot-7, 224-pound forward.

He first attended Windward High 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. Following in his father's footsteps, he transferred in 2005 to Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. Under the NCAA transfer rules, Patrick Ewing, Jr., affectionately known as "Trixie" to his teammates, had to sit out the 2005-06 season.

Ewing wears jersey number 33, like his father. Alonzo Mourning was last to use this number for Georgetown, and he reportedly had to get Mourning's permission before using it [1].

In the 2007-08 season, he participated in the College Slam Dunk Contest at St.Mary's University in San Antonio, Tx during Final Four weekend.

Ewing's coach John Thompson III is the son of John Thompson, who coached the elder Ewing at Georgetown.
