Lewis joined Lewis was a part of the Wellington Saints and averaged 29 points per game during his debut season of 1993. Lewis later earned NBL All-Star Five honors that year, but also expressed his displeasure with the league’s emphasis on imports and stated that “You were only allowed two imports per team and everything was focused on the imports and it could be frustrating because I’d get a teammate an open shot – an easy layup – and he’d give the ball right back to me. I wasn’t there to be arrogant and take every shot.”
