College career
Dominic Artis began his college basketball career with the Oregon Ducks from 2012 to 2014. Following his sophomore year, he was dismissed from the team alongside Damyean Dotson and Brandon Austin after a sexual assault allegation.

In his senior season, he posted averages of 15.0 points and 6.5 rebounds per game, earning Second-team All-Conference USA honors.

In August 2018, he joined VL Pesaro, and a year later he returned to Poland with Dąbrowa Górnicza. January 2020 saw him sign with Slovenia’s Cedevita Olimpija, though the team let him go that May.
