Lewis is a 19 year-old from Trinidad and Tobago that has a grown man's body. He was a plus defender in the G-League which is impressive for a 19 year-old. He has the required athletic ability that allows him to score off of drives. As a bonus, he has shown the ability to make a reasonable percentage (34%) of his three-point shots, while having a positive assist-to-turnover ratio. He will need to improve as a foul shooter. He connected on just 67% in 2023-24 for Mexico City. We are not certain that Lewis will be drafted but we think he should be. You just don't see many young players with NBA bodies that have a head start on the skills needed to exist in the big leagues. There is a real chance to land a future NBA starter here. See video

Our best advice: in 2016, the 53rd pick was Petr Cornelie. We advised, "draft Gary Payton II."
