Drew Timme has captured the attention of the NBA world in just a few games with the Brooklyn Nets. He debuted with a double-double and followed it up with a game-winning shot against the Dallas Mavericks. Timme, a former Gonzaga star, has quickly adapted to the NBA, contributing significantly off the bench. His performance included scoring crucial points during a comeback victory, showcasing his prowess on both ends of the court, notably blocking 10-time All-Star Anthony Davis.

Timme’s journey to the NBA has been challenging, having gone undrafted and overcoming a broken foot during his G League tenure. Yet, his recent success with the Long Island Nets laid the groundwork for his current NBA performance. Nets coach Jordi Fernandez expressed confidence in Timme, citing his impressive ability to thrive under pressure. With an average of 13 points and 6.3 rebounds in his first three games, Timme’s unique playing style and confidence reflect his readiness to make a significant impact in the league.
