Lewis, a unanimous five-star recruit, was ranked ninth in the RSCI (Recruiting Services Consensus Index) Top 100 coming out of Ranney School in Tilton Falls, N.J. He starred alongside current Villanova guard Bryan Antoine and was regarded as a potential lottery pick in the 2020 class.
He ended up spending two seasons in Gainesville, declaring for the draft as a sophomore with 51 games played and per-game averages of 8.
