Andrew Nembhard · It’s often said that “iron sharpens iron,” and after accepting the assignment of defending the Milwaukee Bucks’ shoot-from-anywhere All-Star in two consecutive postseasons, Andrew Nembhard showed basketball’s national stage that he, too, could let it fly from near-logo range. Smooth and poised, even despite the seven-point deficit in the final half-minute, Nembhard uses his teammate’s drag screen to kickstart a historic comeback, stopping just a step inside of the Indiana Pacers’ midcourt symbol with Giannis Antetokounmpo awaiting. Spot-on in the 33-footer that follows, Nembhard breathes additional life into the eventual come-from-behind win, all the while reaffirming his status as a “riser” come postseason time. Deep-range lasers became a staple in Nembhard’s attack during Round One, as he finished a near-perfect four-of-five from 30+ feet away. Impactful in the closeout win, Nembhard closed the deal with 15 points, six rebounds, six assists, three steals, one block, and three triples on April 29, 2025. · State of Mint
