Eyenga has played previously professionally in China (Brave Dragons), Poland (Stelmet Enea BC and PGE Turow), NBA (LA Lakers), Italy (Openjobmetis VA, Banco di Srd and Fiat Torino) and NBA G League (Texas Legends, South Bay Lakers and Canton Charge). He could be described:
(by Stevan Petrovic for NBADraft.net in 2009)
Possesses solid outside range out to 3pt (34% from 3PT). If he hits first few shots from the perimeter in a row he gets very confident and he is very difficult to guard ... Eyenga has good balance in his offensive game and almost the same number of outside shots as well as free-throws.
Eyenga is still a raw player offensively and still has trouble beating defenders off the dribble ... He is too predictable at times and drives to his right most of the time ... He still has lots of room to improve in these areas.
