History shows Jordan Nwora’s draft prospects could hinge on one thing

It’s been a little over three weeks since Jordan Nwora announced his intention to put his Louisville basketball career on hold and declare for the 2019 NBA Draft.

This news came on the heels of a breakout season for the sophomore wing, who upped his scoring from 5.7 points per game as a freshman to over 17 as a sophomore, winning the ACC’s Most Improved Player of the Year award in the process.

While Nwora’s draft stock ranges from anywhere between late first/early second round to undrafted, it’s hard to blame him for testing the waters and seeking feedback from the world’s best talent evaluators.
