Jordi Fernandez firmly believed Terence Davis was an NBA-caliber player and publicly made sure everyone was aware of it.
The Nuggets Summer League coach mentioned it repeatedly during minicamp and it was the first thing he said in assessing the guard’s impressive performance in Sunday’s win over the Magic.

“I'm so happy for him because the kid deserves it and he was very excited about it,” Fernandez told Nuggets.com.
Terence Davis came into the Nuggets summer league roster hoping to showcase why he can be an effective 3-and-D contributor for NBA teams.
