Early life and high school

He attended Compton High School.[1] As a junior, he posted 12 points and seven assists and was named first team All-Moore League and All-Area by the Daily Breeze and helped lead Compton to a 25–8 record as a senior.[2] Cartwright initially committed to Loyola Marymount, but de-committed and opted for Providence after Loyola coach Max Good was fired.[3]
College career
Cartwright played four seasons for the Providence Friars from 2014 to 2018.

At the beginning of his senior season, Cartwright helped propel the Friars to win the 2017 2K Sports Classic and was named the tournament's Most Valuable Player.[6] As a senior, he again led the Big East with 5.8 assists per game and averaged 11.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.3 steals and was named honorable mention All-Big East.[7] Cartwright was named to the 2018 Big East men's basketball tournament All-Tournament team after averaging 15.7 points, 4.7 assists, and two rebounds per game during Providence's run to the tournament final before ultimately losing Villanova.[8]
