Kira Lewis Jr. is a 19.02 year old sophomore point guard prospect from Alabama. He is listed at 6' 3" and 165 pounds.
In an article directed towards the Knicks using the second of their first round picks, Fran Fraschilla of ESPN describes him as such:
“He’s still one of the youngest kids in the draft,’’ Fraschilla said of Lewis. “He’s arguably the fastest player in this draft. The crazy thing is he has played two full seasons in the SEC and doesn’t turn 20 until next April.
“If you want a sleeper, if they take (forwards Obi) Toppin or James Wiseman in the lottery and are looking to take a point guard, the first guy I’d look at is Lewis. He’s Ja Morant Lite and he started his career in the SEC as a 17-year-old.”
