Jusuf Nurkic Injures Leg In Loss
7 years agoPortland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic suffered a leg contusion in his club's nine-point loss in Game 2 of its series with the New Orleans Pelicans. Nurkic played well before his injury, scoring 13 points on 5-for-12 shooting in 15 minutes. He did return to the bench after the injury but did not return to the court, with the Blazers being cautious with their big man. Nurkic should be good to go for Game 3, but even before his injury he was a tough play, as he is just too outmatched against a super athletic Anthony Davis at the other end. If the injury keeps him sidelined for Game 3, Zach Collins could be an interesting target in DFS.
