13. Jordan Nwora

Jordan Nwora can score the rock. There’s no ifs, ands, or buts about it. He isn’t shy to pull the trigger from anywhere, making him a constant threat when he has the ball in his hands. His quick release, albeit low, allows him to shoot in tight spaces while coming off screens.

However, he needs to adapt his microwave scoring ability. As of now, he’s shown he can score when he has a high usage rate, but can he do so in a much smaller role? If he’s to crack the Bucks’ rotation, he must figure out how to score in a tertiary role to the other stars on the court.

He must also figure out how to play a lick of defense. He isn’t very talented on that end of the court and hasn’t quite figured out Milwaukee’s defensive concepts yet. This makes him a huge liability that Milwaukee can’t hide. Improvements in these two areas will vault him up the list.
