Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic collected 13 points, 17 rebounds and one ejection during Thursdays loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Nurkic was tossed in the fourth quarter for his second technical foul, leading to a chain of events that saw the contest forced to overtime. Despite not being available for the extra five minutes, Nurkic still delivered a strong fantasy outing, adding three assists and two steals to his line. Hell have a strong match-up Saturday versus the Phoenix Suns, who are allowing the second-most fantasy points per game to opposing centers this season.
