Playing four years of college ball, Patrick Ewing led Georgetown to one NCAA title. For the next 17 seasons that would be all he’d get. As a member of the New York Knicks, Ewing appeared in the NBA Finals twice and was sent home packing both times.
Outside of the NBA, Ewing appeared twice in the Olympics, winning two gold medals for the United States men’s team. His first came in 1984 followed by his second in 1992. The victories were not hard-fought, though. In 1992, the United States beat its opponents by an average score of 44 points per game!
