He was drafted by the New York Knicks with the 15th pick in the first round of the 1999 National Basketball Association Draft, but he did not sign with them and never played in the National Basketball Association.

Artest was taken with the next pick by the Chicago Bulls.

Weis is known for having been posterized by the United States" Vince Carter during a basketball game between the United States. and France at the 2000 Summer Olympics on September 25, 2000. After getting the ball off a steal, the 6"6" (198 m) Carter drove to the basket, leaped, spread his legs as he jumped over 7"2" (218 m) Weis, and ferociously dunked the ball.
In an Entertainment and Sports Programming Network story published on the 15th anniversary of the dunk, Weis said that Carter "deserves to make history.
Sadly for me, I was on the video, too. I learned people can fly."
