Jusuf Nurkic Will Have Minutes Limit On Wednesday
52 seconds agoCharlotte Hornets center Jusuf Nurkic (trade) is set to make his team debut against the Orlando Magic on Wednesday. After falling out of the rotation in Phoenix, Nurkic was traded to the Hornets during last Thursday's deadline. Now, Nurkic is set to make his Hornets debut, but he'll be under a minutes limit because he hasn't played since early January. It's unclear where Nurkic stands in the Hornets rotation right now. Mark Williams is back with the team after the trade with the Los Angeles Lakers fell through, but he's not playing right now. Moussa Diabate (eye) figures to see more minutes at the center spot, but he's questionable for Wednesday's game. That being said, Nurkic might end up starting on Wednesday with the Hornets limited on options.
