David Nurse was Western Illinois’ sharpshooting engine
In the 2009-10 season, David Nurse was Western Illinois’ most reliable perimeter threat, leading the team with 62 made three-pointers and ranking among the Summit League’s top long-range shooters. He also logged 276 points, started 28 games, and played all 30, showing durability and coach-trust rare for a guard who did most of his damage from deep. The eye test fits the numbers: a steady, high-IQ shooter who could stretch defenses, chip in steals, and keep the offense organized. If your team needs a dependable floor-spacer with proven volume and toughness, Nurse is the kind of guard who makes everyone else’s job easier.
