Marcus Lewis

Marcus Lewis is a 6'8 power forward, formerly of the University of Portland, who transferred the team after his sophomore season after being suspended indefinitely for repeated rules violations. He sat out a year while transferring to Oral Roberts, before putting up 8.6ppg in 5.5rpg in his junior season. Lewis, a big old post player with good hands and good footwork yet without much interest in keeping his weight down, managed to shed 40lbs before his senior season, averaging 13.3ppg, 7.2rpg and 2.3apg. He then spent his first and thus far only professional season with the Thunder's self-owned D-League affiliate, the Tulsa 66ers, where he averaged 4.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.1 fouls and 0.9 assists in 16..

In many ways, Lewis resembles Michael Sweetney. Lewis doesn't have NBA talent and isn't about to; he's here because he's a Tulsa 66er, who can fill out the roster for a bit. Nevertheless, there should be work for Lewis around the globe if he stays in shape, some of it paying pretty well. May I recommend Japan.
