He ended his pursuit of an NFL career as an offensive tackle to pursue his basketball options.[3] Although he was listed at Mason as 6'7", 275 lb (2.01 m, 125 kg), the Giants listed him at 6'5", 292 lb (1.96 m, 133 kg). Professional careerWeeks after leaving the Giants, Lewis signed with KK Bosna for $8,000 a month.[4] Lewis was expected to play a significant role for the defending champions.

In twenty-seven games, he averaged 15.4 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 1.7 steals.[4] Following his rookie season in Israel, Jai Lewis signed with Strasbourg IG, a French team. Just four games into the season, with Lewis averaging only 3 points on 27% shooting, Strasbourg released Lewis.[4] After playing for Strasbourg, Jai Lewis signed with Hapoel Galil Elyon, another Israeli team who took part in the ULEB Cup,[5] to finish the 2008 season.
