7 years agoPortland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic finds himself in a great spot on Thursday night as the Blazers host the Indiana Pacers on a short, four-game slate. On a night that also includes Joel Embiid, Karl-Anthony Towns and Kevin Love as roster options, Nurkic offers real value at a mid-range price. In the month of January, he's averaging just shy of 32 DraftKings points and has grabbed seven or more rebounds in seven of his nine games. Over this nine-game stretch, five of the nine teams are in the top half of the league in fantasy points allowed against opposing centers, four of which are in the top 10. His opponent tonight? The Pacers rank dead last in the aforementioned category, surrendering just shy of 56 fantasy points per game. Lock Nurkic in.--Matt Mieszerski
