Nwora, Jordan Louisville 6'8" 215 PF jr.  Nwora is a 'stretch four' with deep shooting range and underrated athleticism. Right handed. Nwora averaged 18 points and 7.7 rebounds per game as a junior at Louisville. He was named First Team All-ACC. He shot 40.2% from three-point range. He has exceptional ability to come off screens and catch-n-shoot. Nwora is also good from the free throw line, making 81.3% in 2019-20. He finished sixth in ACC boxscore plus/minus. Nwora's decision making is suspect at this point in his career. He had way more turnovers (168) than assists (95) in his college career. ...Nwora is the son of a basketball coach. Jordan is well traveled, with experience as a player on the Nigerian National team. ...We expect Nwora to be selected in the middle of the second round. Due to his shooting ability and his solid defense, we think Nwora can be an effective bench FOUR in the NBA. 

 

Our most sketchy advice: in 2007, the 56th pick was Ramon Sessions. We advised, "draft Ali Traore."

Our best advice: in 2002, the 56th pick was Randy Holcomb. We advised, "draft Udonis Haslem."
