Who is Nyk Lewis? Four-star point guard from Washington, D.C. expected to visit Xavier

The Xavier Musketeers filled out the final scholarship spots on their 2024-25 roster earlier this month as Brad Colbert returned to the Musketeers, then Florida State transfer Cam’Ron Fletcher and Boise State transfer Roddie Anderson committed.

Now, the attention turns toward the future. Xavier does not have any incoming freshmen for this season after Centerville’s Jonathan Powell got out of his NLI and committed to West Virginia, but the recruiting trail for the Class of 2025 is heating up.

Lewis was recently invited to play in the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) 2024 Top 100 High School Basketball Camp in Orlando next month. He averaged 13 points, 6 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game last season in leading Gonzaga to a runner-up finish in the Washington Catholic…
