Trail Blazers downgrade Jusuf Nurkic (knee) as doubtful on Friday
Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (knee) is doubtful to play in Friday's contest against the Chicago Bulls.
What It Means:
Nurkic seems unlikely to suit up at home after Portland's center was given a doubtful designation on Friday. Expect Drew Eubanks to log more minutes at the five if Nurkic is out.
Per Rotogrinders' Court IQ in 1362.0 minutes this season with Nurkic off the floor, Eubanks is averaging 0.92 FanDuel points and a 11.4% usage rate.
