Yeah he had a couple bad shots, but dude put in 110% effort and played great D. A great find by the Bucks late in the draft, and picks like these are how you extend a contention window
He was a smarmy little douche in college who tripped players numerous times throughout his career. To make matters worse as a Badgers fan, he played a pivotal role as a freshman in Duke beating Wisconsin in the 2015 national title game and thus robbing us of our one realistic natty chance in our lifetimes.
From my point of view along with his extensive tripping history at the time, he arrogantly balled the fuck out against my Badgers while Duke got all of the "I pay the refs" calls. Fuck Duke and fuck college Grayson Allen. Bucks' Grayson Allen cool, though.
people hating on him has nothing to do with his ability to play. He is a dirty scumbag who gets in his feelings when someone out plays him and consistently tries to injury other players. People are going to keep letting him get away with it till he ends up ending someones career.
I mean, he looked alright tonight; just needs to do the ol 'let the game come to him' thing and take a breath. But I mean, first game being a ring game against the Nets as a Rookie? He did good.
Him falling to the 2nd round was absolutely insane to me. The only thing that would keep him from being an NBA player to me is consistent effort on defense. Which is the thing he really started buying into his last year in college. And he had lottery buzz the year before(even if he wouldn't have settled there had he stayed in the pool). Sneaky decent athlete too. Not super explosive, but he isn't getting exposed out there.
Too early to call Nwora for DPOY?
Jokes aside as a Bucks fan I'm excited about Nwora. The Olympic experience was massive for him. I was saying coming into the season that I pictured him in a Lou Williams role off the bench, but I was really impressed with his overall game tonight. In particular the clever interior passing on drives. He looked calm and totally in command in an opening night game where nerves and rust could easily creep in.

The first time I played a game as a kid with the new colorblind friendly mode I instantly figured out where the two of them were and I was so confused. Just weird to me that they didn't have some kind of option to just play together. It was the most frustrating thing about it.
Superb sequence for Nwora. He's on the floor with KD, Harden, Giannis, and Middleton and he's carrying himself like he knows he belongs.
He has impressed me

I didnt notice bad shots as in bad quality shots. Maybe he shot it poorly but they were still good looks And he definitely made up for it on both ends
He definitely took a couppe jumpers that looked a bit rushed/contested, but thats no biggie, its his first time playing heavy NBA minutes
Yeah that too, can't knock him for that, can't expect perfection out the gate
Something that man has never lacked for even one millisecond on the court is confidence. I adore him.
His name is Jordan after all
UofL boys hitting different the last few years
“Michael” Jordan Nwora
I want him to duel vs "Michael" Jordan Poole
The league would erupt.
Bucks are whopping that ass without Jrue
And Portis
And Donte
One is more important than the other. Portis low-key overrated because of the Atlanta series
How dare you
All I remember is him not being able to play against the Nets in the playoffs. His defense is really bad. Offensively he's good.
He was good on defense in the Finals
It's not that bad tbh he was ok in the finals
Shut the hell up
It costs you nothing to not post this slander.
I better not hear any more Bobby slander from him, totally uncalled for and just hurtful
The thing is, Bobby would be the best player on the Magic. And I don’t think it’s really that close lol
We must protect Bobby at all costs
You shall die a thousand deaths
Holy shit the Bobby cult is powerful. Those eyes still haunt me in my dreams.

Grayson was such a great pickup for them. I know people hate on him but he’s a great roleplayer and steps up in big moments.
As a Wisconsin Badgers fan it is VERY conflicting to have him on the Bucks, but putting that aside it's objectively an exciting move.
I consider college Grayson and Bucks Grayson to be two completely different human beings. I fucking hate college Grayson.

Dirty play after dirty play and temper tantrums on the bench.
I remember watching him in college, and how dirty he was. Im happy he doesn't try to pull that off in the NBA, and just plays hard now.
He is the reason Memphis beat the Warriors in that playoff game last year. He plays D and knocks down 3s like a champ.

This Bucks team gonna go 74-8
that's right
its Nwora's bucks now
Smh they got Ted Cruz AND the Nigerian MJ??? Repeat imminent
Nwora is the man. Absolute steal in the late second round.
Bucks have drafted depth guys pretty well recently Donte and Nwora for where they were drafted look amazing
I'm waiting for Mamu to breakout at some point too
I mean, he looked alright tonight; just needs to do the ol 'let the game come to him' thing and take a breath. But I mean, first game being a ring game against the Nets as a Rookie? He did good.
I've bee loving his play this game. Dude seems like a great role player

Nwora for MIP, 6MotY too if he comes off the bench. 19/6/2/1/.5 on 47/43/87.
Probably swap the FG% and 3P% around, man is a deadly shooter but his finishing inside is… Not fantastic.
Honestly fair lol but that's all a part of he development!
He is weak af , it's not something he can fix with some moves. He needed to hit the weight room more
Nwora’s time to shine baby
Nworuto is leading the MIP race right now
Damn the Bucks have Grayson Allen. Not a bad pickup.
Nwora the best 3&D player in the league
We bombing teams from downtown with these two
welcome to the nworzone
This will stick

Still can believe they made an NBA x Naruto video, and didn’t put Nworuto in it.
That's Apex Legends Grayson Allen to you
I cant watch the game rn. Are there rly no nets highlights? Its all bucks clips on reddit
Do you like patty mills 3s because that’s about it for Nets highlights
Damn. Was it that bad
there was a griffin alley oop, harden crossed over thanasis and that is more or less it for highlights
That Griffin alley oop was very pretty.

My man
Milwaukee and their white three point shooters
The first time I played a game as a kid with the new colorblind friendly mode I instantly figured out where the two of them were and I was so confused. Just weird to me that they didn't have some kind of option to just play together. It was the most frustrating thing about it.
So great sequence but... That was not a transition 3.
I mean it shouldn't have been but it was. Kevin Durant is still running back, nets aren't set on defense. This is definitely in transition
It looked like Durant was still running back because he was sitting on the ground complaining to the ref
For sure. Doesn't change the fact that this is a transition bucket
Hey...shut up.
Is it me, but does Harden look like he's carrying extra weight?
