Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic will start on Friday night in the team's game against the Orlando Magic.
Nurkic has been out since January 14th due to a fractured wrist and a calf injury, but the veteran big is finally ready to return to the court. According to head coach Terry Stotts, the Bosnian native will start, but he'll also be limited to just about 20 minutes on the court. Enes Kanter should return to a bench role, but he could still see a healthy chunk of minutes.
Our models currently Nurkic for 7.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 20.0 FanDuel points across 18.5 minutes of action.
