Portland Trail Blazers celebrated last night at home against the Denver Nuggets, the team for which BH basketball player Jusuf Nurkić is playing, with a result of 120:114. Nurkić played for 19 minutes and scored 10 points.
Nuggets coach Melvin Hunt was cheering our player in Bosnian language, in order to motivate him to play better.
‘He is young and a great player, ready for the challenge. I think he knew all the players from video games, including their names. However, when he plays with them on the field he respects them, but is not afraid of them, he is not afraid of anyone. In the match against the Blazers I have sent him a few encouraging words in Bosnian language and said he did a good job’, Hunt told reporters after the NBA League match.
