Following college, Nunn went undrafted but he is now a key contributor for the Miami Heat.
On Wednesday, against the San Antonio Spurs, Nunn, according to the Heat, broke an NBA record by starting off the game a perfect 8 for 8 from the field. That is a feat that has never been matched by an undrafted rookie in the NBA.
