Jusuf Nurkic (shoulder) expects to play for Portland Wednesday
Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (shoulder) says he will "probably" play on Wednesday against the Orlando Magic.
What It Means:
Nurkic injured his shoulder in the first half of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers and never returned. He's not listed on the injury report for Wednesday's matchup, so it sounds like the big man will be good to go.
Nurkic is averaging 34.2 FanDuel points per game. numberFire's models expect him to record 14.3 points, 9.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.9 steals, and 1.8 blocks per contest over the remainder of the year.
