Jusuf Nurkic
C - POR - OUT
Ownership
Eligibility
Jusuf Nurkic suffered a severe leg injury when he landed after getting fouled grabbing a rebound in the second overtime on Monday against the Nets. He suffered a fractured left leg and will be out the rest of the season.
Fantasy Impact
It is a big blow to the Blazers and will force fantasy owners to scramble for a new big man the last couple of weeks of the season. Enes Kanter figures to be the big winner as he moves into more minutes and fantasy production. Zach Collins should also get some extra run the last couple of weeks.
Jusuf Nurkic scored 15 points on 6-for-12 shooting in the victory over Detroit on Wednesday night. Nurkic added six rebounds, three assists, and two blocks to his stat line.
Fantasy Impact
Nurkic is a top 50 fantasy player whose salary doesn't always reflect his numbers. He has a nice floor and you can often find him for a discount in daily games. As Portland continues to improve on defense, you can expect his numbers to stay consistent.
Jusuf Nurkic scored 18 points and grabbed 11 rebounds in Monday night's win over Indiana. Nurkic went 8-for-15 in 31 minutes played.
Fantasy Impact
Nurkic continues to put up good numbers and will be a safe, high floor, option during the fantasy playoffs. Keep him in your lineups this week, especially with McCollum expected to miss at least a week.
Jusuf Nurkic scored 24 points and grabbed 16 rebounds in Saturday night's loss to the Spurs. Nurkic went 10-for-21 from the field and added four assists.
Fantasy Impact
As long as Nurkic stays out of foul trouble he has the chance to put up elite numbers. It's worth the risk to keep him in starting lineups and is a good play in tournament games.
Jusuf Nurkic scored 11 points and grabbed 12 rebounds on Friday night as the Blazers ran away with the victory against New Orleans. Nurkic added five assists in just 22 minutes played.
Fantasy Impact
Nurkic saw limited minutes as he got into foul trouble early. Still, he is productive enough to warrant a starting stop in most leagues headed into the playoffs. He has the potential for explosive games making him a sneaky tournament play in daily games.
