Jusuf Nurkic: Can Mike Budenholzer Unleash Stretch-5 Nurk? | Phoenix Suns Season Preview

On Day 13 of Phoenix Suns 2024-25 Season Previews, Gerald Bourguet takes a look at the strengths and weaknesses of Jusuf Nurkic, including his screen-setting, passing and willingness to contest shots at the rim, but also his defensive flaws, turnovers and struggles finishing at the rim. Plus, can Suns coach Mike Budenholzer turn Nurk into his latest stretch-5 as a legitimate 3-point shooter after Nurk spent the offseason working on his 3-ball?

  1. Nurk needs to play inside not out to give suns a presence score in the paint we don’t need a stretch 5 with all our shooters like KD Booker Beal Allen O’Neil Bol Bol Dunn Lee Monte
