Thomas Welsh was the 58th pick in the 2018 Draft and played just 36 minutes in the NBA during the 2018-19 season with the Denver Nuggets. However, Welsh embraced the opportunity that was presented to him through a two-way contract to work on his game and focus on what the team could need from him in the future.
Welsh entered the NBA after four seasons at UCLA in which he first established himself as an inside presence for the Bruins. During Welsh’s senior season, he expanded his game beyond the arc and worked to become a true stretch five as the NBA continued to emphasize the 3-pointer.
