Splitter led the Trail Blazers to the playoffs this season as acting head coach after Chauncey Billups' arrest.
Counting down the 25 best Trail Blazers performances of the last 25 years.
Over the final six weeks until the start of training camp, we will be counting down the 25 best individual performances by Trail Blazers players in the last 25 years.

Other entries: 25-23 | 22-21 | 20-19 | 18-17 | 16-15 | 12-11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1

The player: Jusuf Nurkić
The game: January 1, 2019 at Sacramento Kings
The stats: 24 points, 5-of-10 shooting (50%), 14-of-16 free throws, 23 rebounds, 7 assists, 5 steals, 5 blocks in 37 minutes

When picking which Jusuf Nurkić game to feature on this list, the other primary contender was the one that kicked off "Nurk Fever," his 33-point, 15-rebound game against his former team in the Denver Nuggets two months after he was traded to Portland in 2017.
