Jusuf Nurkic posted a double-double for the Jazz Friday night, grabbing 11 rebounds and chipping in 16 points (6-9 FG, 1-1 3PT, 3-3 FT) while also blocking two shots, dishing out five assists, and recording one steal in a 131-129 win over the Pistons.

Fantasy Impact:

Nurkic continues a modest stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with four or more points, five or more assists, and eight or more rebounds in each of his last five games. The center offers fantasy managers more of a complementary option with a safe floor as part of an inconsistent Utah starting five, averaging 9.1 points, 4.1 assists, and 9.7 rebounds per game to go along with a 17.5% usage rate so far this season.
