Patrick Patterson (born March 14, 1989) is an American former professional basketball player. He played in the NBA for the Houston Rockets, Sacramento Kings, Toronto Raptors, Oklahoma City Thunder and Los Angeles Clippers.

Early life

[edit]

Patterson, born in Washington, D.C.,[1] grew up in Huntington, West Virginia[2] and graduated from Huntington High School in 2007. During his high school career, Patterson helped lead Huntington High School to three straight state championships. Patterson won his third state championship during his senior season with help from O. J. Mayo.

Considered a five-star recruit by Rivals.com, Patterson was listed as the No. 3 power forward and the No. 17 player in the nation in 2007,[3] and was named a McDonald's All-American.

College career

[edit]

Patrick Patterson played college basketball for the University of Kentucky (UK). He chose to play for Kentucky rather than Duke or Florida in a highly publicized recruiting battle. He was recruited by Kentucky coach Tubby Smith and his replacement Billy Gillispie.[4][5] Later, in the 2009–10 season, he played for former Memphis coach John Calipari who became Gillispie's replacement in April 2009.

Freshman season

[edit]

During Patterson's freshman All-American 2007–08 season, he averaged 16.4 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 0.8 steals, while shooting 57% from the field. After a Kentucky victory over the Ole Miss Rebels, Patterson missed the remainder of the 2007–08 season with a stress fracture in his left ankle. He also claimed he planned on staying at Kentucky rather than participating in the NBA draft.

Sophomore season

[edit]

For his sophomore season at UK during the 2008–09 season, he and teammate Jodie Meeks became one of the most successful duos that season, and also became the most productive duo at Kentucky, since the days of Dan Issel and Mike Pratt. Patterson scored a career-high 33 points, on 15-of-17 shooting, on December 22, 2008, against the Tennessee State Tigers.[6] During Patterson's sophomore 2008–09 season, he averaged 17.9 points, 9.3 rebounds, 2.1 blocks and 0.6 steals, while shooting 60% from the field. On April 18, 2009, Patterson decided to enter his name into the 2009 NBA draft. However, on May 8, 2009, he decided he would return to Kentucky for the third season.

Junior season

[edit]

Patterson continued to play a crucial role for the team during his junior season. However, with the addition of freshman players John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins and Eric Bledsoe, Patterson was no longer required to be the main option for scoring and rebounding. Patterson also improved his outside shot, shooting about 35% from the three-point line all season (compared to no three-pointers made in the previous seasons). During this season, Patterson helped the team win the SEC tournament and achieve a #1 seed in the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2004. On April 23, 2010, Patterson entered the 2010 NBA draft; by the time of the draft, he had completed his coursework and earned a degree from UK.[7]

Professional career

[edit]

Houston Rockets (2010–2013)

[edit]

On November 10, he was assigned to the Rio Grande Valley Vipers of the NBA Development League.[8] In nine games with the Vipers, Patterson averaged 18.3 points, and 10.3 rebounds in 35 minutes per game.[9] Two days after being recalled by the Rockets,[10] he made his NBA regular season debut on December 15, 2010.[11]

With Luis Scola injured, Patterson had his first NBA start with the Rockets on March 14, 2011, scoring 2 points and grabbing 5 rebounds.[12]

After the Rockets used the amnesty clause to waive Scola, Patterson became the starting power forward for the 2012–13 season.
