Portland Trail Blazers big man Jusuf Nurkic was taken under the wing of Damian Lillard almost as soon as he was ushered out by the Denver Nuggets. Now, Nurkic is doing a bit of mentoring on his own with Bosnia and Herzegovina NBA Draft prospect Dzanan Musa, according to a video posted by Indy Star Sports.
When asked about relationships with players overseas, Musa highlighted Nurkic, whom he played with on the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team:
I speak to him a lot, so we have that kind of relationship.
