Nerlens Noel gets start again, comes up just short of double-double
by Dave Kluge | Sat, Jan 25th 12:38pm EST
Nerlens Noel scored 10 points, grabbed eight rebounds, and blocked a shot on Friday's win over the Hawks. He played 25 minutes and shot 5-of-6 from the field, missing his only free throw attempt.
Fantasy Impact:
Noel got the start in place of the injured Steven Adams, his sixth of the season. He's averaging 12 points and 7.5 rebounds over the last two starts while Adams recovers from an injury. If Adams misses again tonight, Noel could be a savvy start in DFS as the offensive-minded Karl Anthony-Towns could struggle to contain the big-bodied center. If Adams is able to suit up however, don't think about touching Noel in any format and he's only averaging 8.2 points and 5.2 rebounds on the year.
