Career highlights and awards

Przemysław "Przemek" Karnowski (Polish pronunciation: [ˈpʂɛmɛk karˈnɔfskʲi]; born 8 November 1993) is a Polish college basketball player who is playing for Gonzaga University in the United States. He has also played for the Polish national team. He had been viewed by some NBA draft analysts as a potential first round pick in the 2016 draft, but chose to return to Gonzaga for his final season of college eligibility in 2016–17.[1]

College career

Przemek narrowed his decision down to California and Gonzaga. He committed to Gonzaga on May 29, 2012.[2] For his freshman season he was behind star Canadian center Kelly Olynyk, a future lottery pick in the 2013 NBA Draft. In the 2013-14 season Karnowski averaged 10.4 points, 7.0 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game as the Bulldogs' starting center.[3] As a junior he averaged 11 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1 block per game.[4] Due to back problems, Karnowski was forced to have surgery five games into his senior season. He was averaging 8.8 points and 5.4 rebounds in those five games.[5]

On May 24, 2016, Gonzaga announced that Karnowski had received a medical redshirt and would return to the school for one final college season in 2016–17.[1]
