Blazers' Jusuf Nurkic double-doubles, matches season-high with 4 blocks Sunday
Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic scored 17 points on 8-for-18 shooting Sunday, to go with 12 rebounds, 1 assist, and 4 blocks in a 122-109 win over the Los Angeles Clippers.
What It Means:
Nurkic played 30 minutes for the first time in almost a week, and it showed in his final box score. The big man's minutes are likely going to be in flux some as we head down the stretch, but if Nurkic is needed against an opposing big man, he seems to get the minutes to be a great fantasy asset.
Our early models for Tuesday project Nurkic for 30.1 FanDuel points at a cost of $6,300.
