Player Profile
Few athletes have ever had to choose between two equally prestigious professional dreams as Patrick Connaughton. Selected in the fourth round of the 2014 MLB Draft by the Baltimore Orioles as a relief pitcher, this Arlington native ultimately chose basketball, a decision that led him all the way to an NBA championship with the Milwaukee Bucks in 2021.
Nicknamed "Vanilla Thunder" and "Planet Pat", Connaughton embodies athletic versatility in its purest form. A quarterback in football, a pitcher in baseball, and a guard in basketball during his high school years, his basketball recruiting stock skyrocketed after a remarkable week at an AAU tournament. That performance opened the doors to Notre Dame, where he became one of the rare Division I athletes to excel simultaneously in two sports at the highest collegiate level.
A two-time captain for the Fighting Irish, Connaughton stood out for his natural leadership and steady improvement. A starter in all 34 of his freshman-year games, he refined his rebounding skills and developed the versatility that now defines his NBA identity. His ability to juggle basketball practices with appearances on the mound in the prestigious Cape Cod Baseball League is a testament to exceptional discipline.
Now an established guard for the Bucks, Connaughton continues to embody the values of total commitment and versatility that have shaped his unique journey. His NBA championship definitively validates the bold choice of trading in the baseball glove for the professional hardwood.
