Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic dropped a 33 spot on his former team the Denver Nuggets to go along with 16 boards against his former team, the Nuggets, a couple days ago.
However, that isn’t even close to the best thing we learned about the 22-year-old Bosnian 7-footer doing this week.
Turns out that Nurkic has some mad game at the club as well as on the court according to this guy on Twitter’s hilarious story of how Jusuf took his buddy Mike’s girlfriend while he just sat there helpless and watched.
Lmaooooo. I’m gonna delete this, but, Jusuf Nurkic stole my boys girl one night and that shit was hiiiiiilarious

Alright. So. I’ve lived in Portland for about two years now. This is not a VIP city. No spot here should ever have a VIP.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
VIP in Portland = washed up Oregon football players, someone that plays on the Blazers or a local rapper.

So, my dawg, we’ll call him Mike has lived here for about a year. He knows how it is. He’s been with his girl for like ~ 6 months.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
Mike’s a cool dude. We do what homies do: hoop, play 2k, talk shit. You know. Anyway. He hit me up on a Friday like yo let’s go out.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
I didn’t want to go because usually that means I’m third wheeling but I had also had a fresh haircut so the boy had to be seen. pic.twitter.com/Xw0RXTH1Vx

So I get to Mike’s crib to pregame or whatever and two of his girls friends are there. The night got better from there (for me).
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
So we leave and Mike and his girl are in the back of the Uber XL arguing. Loudly. I tried to cut the music up but that didn’t help
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
We get to the spot. I’m already a few whiskeys in. Super lit. I don’t have the highest alcohol tolerance anymore.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
The girls find us a table and we go get drinks. Now. Idk if you’ve ever seen an NBA player irl but, they’re taller than they look on TV.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
In walks three giant white dudes. One is Jusuf Nurkic.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
Now. When me and Mike used to play 2k he used to use the Nuggets (Nurkic’s old team) and cook with him in the post.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
Jusuf and his boy were in their own VIP with some very meager jawns. And then he stood up and looked around.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
He’s like 7 feet tall so he got a birds eye view of everybody in the room
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
He gets up and starts walking around and making conversation whatever whatever.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
He makes his way to our table. Fammmmm the disrespect lmaooooooooo
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
He didn’t acknowledge Mike. Not once. Just talked directly to his girl. Asked her name and how her night was. Mike sitting there like pic.twitter.com/f6CLCubSwK
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
I’m sitting there like pic.twitter.com/lLXQvK6nxe
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
Jusuf said “Come hangout with us. You’ll have more fun than with this guy” in broken English. She stood up and walked with him.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
(I was hoping Mike didn’t try to fight because I didn’t want noooo problems with those dudes. I wear a size medium shirt. FOH.)
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
You ever look in someone’s eyes and see their soul? Mike’s soul was in the bottom of his Stan Smiths.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
So I’m sitting there with the two other homegirls on some life goes on shit but Mike was making the spot hot. He was damn near crying bruh
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
I’m annoyed at this point because he’s interrupting the offense. Yeah. I wasn’t wasting that haircut because a hooper stole your girl nigga pic.twitter.com/h7JZVQFRXr
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
So I put my drink down and leaned forward and said, “Yo. Does it hurt more because you used him on 2k?”
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
Whatever soul he had left inside him left the premises. He got up and left the spot
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
But remember what Renzel said, “Regardless of how it goes down, life goes on.” It was back to the play with her two friends.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
So the night ends. Mikes girl stayed with them and left with them and I remember thinking “That’s curtains for you Mike”
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
I ended up going back with one of the homegirls and she texted Mike’s girl to make sure she was ok. She was at the crib and yeeeahhhhhhhh
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
A couple days later I ran into Mike. I hadn’t talked to him since I asked how he felt about his 2k player stealing his girl.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
He was ok. Then he looked at me and said he was thinking about hearing her out and maybe taking her back. I was like pic.twitter.com/1iXAQw02cw
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
This is how it went:
Mike: Did…
Me: pic.twitter.com/tpoHGsPoyE— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
My dawg was crushed but I couldn’t tell a lie to his face.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
I just got back from Mike’s crib. A few of us chilled and watched the games and had some beers. Bro shit.
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
I started playing 2k. Mike picked up the other controller. I said, “You gon play with the Blazers?”
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOO THE END 😭😭
— Cozy Altidore (@jstnbradley) March 31, 2017
This is even more funny because the Blazers are HOOPING rn in the 8th seed in the West. …….And Nurkic is getting buckets.
