Ewing Heads to D.C. as Wizards Assistant | New York Knicks News

Patrick Ewing, Knicks legend and beloved New York icon, is stepping into a new chapter as an assistant coach for the Washington Wizards — a move that tugs at the heartstrings of fans who watched him chase glory on the court and now celebrate his legacy off it. After a storied playing career marked by near-misses and a triumphant championship as a spectator, Ewing brings decades of coaching experience — including stints with the Wizards, Rockets, Magic, Hornets, and even a surprise Big East Tournament win at Georgetown — to a young Wizards roster led by stars like A.J. Dybantsa and Alex Sarr. At 63, he’s leaving behind franchise records and 11 All-Star nods, but his Knick soul remains unshakable. Fans may be sad to see him go, but they’re proud to see him thrive — and they’re cheering him on as he takes the next step in his legendary journey.
