NBA Draft 2020 Profile: Isaiah Stewart’s old school game could boost Nuggets
With the NBA Draft a little less than a week out, Nuggets.com takes a look at 10 prospects who have been heavily-linked to the team through various mock drafts.
Who says low-post scoring is dead?
Isaiah Stewart was a dominant force in his sole season at Washington in the low blocks, earning All-first-team Pac-12 honors as a result. The key is whether or not his game can translate into the modern NBA? With the Huskies, he was able to thrive at center, scoring 1.10 points per post possession. But at 6-foot-9, NBA teams will likely view him as a power forward. However, the Nuggets could be a potentially great fit for Stewart based on their own needs.
