The Church of Roy podcast is back to discuss Jusuf Nurkic’s upcoming role in EuroBasket 2022. Can the Trail Blazers’ big fella lead Bosnia and Herzegovina out of the group stage? Regardless of the outcome, Nurkic’s presence in the competition will break up the lull in the offseason.
Along with discussing EuroBasket, hosts Brian Wilcox and Steve Dewald highlighted the Blazers’ decision to part ways with 23-year-old wing Didi Louzada. Steve suggested that the Blazers could wait until closer to the trade deadline to backfill the roster spot formerly held by Louzada.
