Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) won't play Wednesday for Portland

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic will not play against the Miami Heat, per Casey Holdahl of TrailBlazers.com.

What It Means:

Nurkic was questionable, but Portland's going to be cautious with their talented big man. However, the Blazers could also be without Meyers Leonard (illness), meaning more minutes for Ed Davis and rookie Zach Collins.

Priced at $7,800, Nurkic was projected for 33.4 FanDuel points before being ruled out for Wednesday's game. He's projected for 31.7 FD points if he's able to make it back for Friday's road game versus the Orlando Magic.
