Jusuf Nurkic (back) questionable for Trail Blazers on Friday
Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (lower back soreness) is questionable for Friday's matchup with the Boston Celtics.
Nurkic scored 21 points and pulled down 11 rebounds while playing 27 minutes against Clint Capela and the Houston Rockets on Tuesday, so this doesn't sound like a major concern. In the event he can't play, Ed Davis would benefit the most while Zach Collins and Meyers Leonard could also see a boost.
Nurkic is averaging 31.1 FanDuel points per game this season, with 14.2 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.8 steals, and 1.3 blocks per contest.
