Chris Nwuli is a freshman forward who provides scoring punch off the bench, averaging 2.0 points in 9.5 minutes per game. He has been a dangerous perimeter threat, hitting 50.0% from deep. He takes care of the ball with just 0.7 turnovers per game.
A North Las Vegas native whose parents — Christieanah and Tony — both played basketball professionally overseas, Nwuli's high school career took him across the country: Wasatch Academy in Utah, Bishop Gorman in Nevada, Sierra Canyon in California, and finally Dynamic Prep in Texas, where he posted a 67 percent field goal percentage in 13 games. He played AAU on the EYBL circuit with the Oakland Soldiers alongside Rutgers teammate Lino Mark, helping the team reach the Peach Jam Classic title game. ESPN ranked him No. 41 nationally in the 2025 class — the highest-rated recruit in Rutgers' 2025 class — and he chose the Scarlet Knights over Ohio State, UCLA, and USC. Known primarily as a defensive versatile wing who Steve Pikiell called "one of the best athletes in the 2025 class," Nwuli scored his first college points on a one-handed transition dunk.
