Nerlens Noel Notches 11 Points As Starter
4 years agoOklahoma City Thunder center Nerlens Noel made his seventh start of the season on Friday, finishing a 121-92 loss to Memphis with 11 points and four rebounds. Steven Adams (leg contusion) sat this one out which gave Noel a rare start, but he had a tough matchup against Jonas Valanciunas and the whole team struggled in the contest. The team starts a back-to-back set on Sunday, so Adams' return might not be imminent and there's a really good matchup against Washington coming up. Only three teams have allowed more points to opposing centers this season, and the Wizards have also given up the most rebounds in the league to the position.
