Patrick Ewing said that the two gold medal he won at Olympics and the ring won with Georgetown were stolen.
Per Dan Patrick Show (via ESPN), “My house got broken into in New York, and at one point they stole my medals,” Ewing said. “So I called Jerry Colangelo [former USA Basketball chairman], and he was great to be able to get me two replacement medals.”
Ewing won the 1992 medal as part of the Dream Team, the United States’ first roster of primarily professional players.
“He took care of me,” Ewing said of Colangelo. “He’s a great guy.”
Ewing, 57, said the 1984 national championship ring he won with Georgetown was also taken.
“They did take my college championship ring, but someone tried to sell it on eBay and I was able to get that back,” said Ewing, who is now the head coach at his alma mater.
