Blazers rule out Jusuf Nurkic (leg) for Game 1
Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (leg) will not play in Game 1 against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday.
What It Means:
The Bosnian Beast was shooting around recently, but the Blazers' training staff isn't ready to clear him yet. Nurkic says he is pain free so there is a chance he makes his return sometime in this series. Noah Vonleh and Meyers Leonard stand to pick up the most minutes in Oakland on Sunday.
Our models project Leonard for 10.8 points, 6.2 rebounds and 1.5 assists over 28.8 minutes on Sunday in Game 1.
