Jusuf Nurkic led the Suns offense Friday night, dropping 31 points (13-22 FG, 2-6 3PT, 3-5 FT) while also grabbing six rebounds, blocking one shot, and dishing out two assists in a 119-111 loss to the Nuggets.

Fantasy Impact:

Nurkic has offered modest rebounding and scoring of late for the Suns, finishing with at least five rebounds and six points in each of his last five games. The 29-year-old remains reliable option despite a minimal role in a Phoenix starting five including Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, and Devin Booker when eventually at full health, averaging 12.0 points and 9.2 rebounds per game to go along with a 19.3% usage rate so far this season.
