Jusuf Nurkic scored a team-high 23 points (9-for-13 FG, 5-for-6 FT) to go with nine rebounds, three assists and one blocked shot in 26 minutes in Wednesday's 107-102 win over the Pelicans.

Fantasy Impact:

Nurkic looked great on opening night and showed why he deserved to win the starting center job coming into the season. The Nuggets have a crowded frontcourt and it looks like Nurkic will average 25-30 minutes which should make him effective in fantasy leagues. He also should be looked at in DFS formats as he is currently a great value.
