Georgetown basketball guard KJ Lewis, who received All-Big East third-team recognition, is set to enter the transfer portal for the second straight year, according to a Tuesday report from On3.
The guard, who spent his initial two collegiate seasons at Arizona before transferring, appeared in 28 games this season with 27 starts. Lewis topped Georgetown’s roster with a 14.9 points per game scoring average, ranking ninth among Big East players. He also finished second in the conference for steals with 2.1 per contest and paced the Hoyas with 5.1 rebounds per game.
The 6-foot-4 player’s season came to an early end when he suffered a left ankle injury during Georgetown’s matchup with Marquette on February 24, sidelining him for the final six regular season contests.
The Hoyas finished the campaign with a 16-18 overall record and went 6-14 in Big East play. Georgetown managed to advance through two rounds of the conference tournament before losing to UConn in the semifinal round.
During his previous season at Arizona, Lewis posted averages of 10.8 points and 4.6 rebounds across 37 appearances, including six as a starter. He received honorable mention recognition for the Pac-12 All-Freshman team in 2023-24. Throughout his two-year tenure with the Wildcats, Lewis compiled career averages of 8.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.2 steals over 73 total games.
