John Sylvester Newman Jr. (born November 28, 1963) is an American former professional basketball player.

They fell to the 4th-seeded Indiana Hoosiers in the 2nd round.

1986

A 6' 7" and 210 lb shooting guard/small forward, Newman starred at the University of Richmond, before going on to play in the National Basketball Association.
