Overview

  • Recruiting reporter Joe Tipton of On3 reported Lewis’s commitment to USC, which was relayed by Yahoo Sports, and the New York Post noted Lewis retweeted the news.
  • Lewis led Georgetown this past season with 14.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.1 steals per game and earned Third-Team All-Big East honors after two prior seasons at Arizona.
  • He entered the transfer portal with one year of eligibility, and his junior year ended in late February due to a left ankle injury with no new medical update reported.
  • USC hosted Lewis for an official visit and made him a priority target under head coach Eric Musselman, according to On3’s reporting.
  • The commitment continues USC’s offseason push to upgrade the roster, which has included pledges from five-star forward Christian Collins and four-star twins Adonis and Darius Ratliff.
