Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (calf) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The big man is back on the injury report due to left calf soreness. If he sits, Drew Eubanks is expected to move into the starting five during Friday's game. He'd be worth looking at as a streaming option if given the starting nod. Thaddeus Young would also see more minutes, but wouldn't be as viable of an option.
Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) is available to play in Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Suns will get their starting center back after he missed one game due to an ankle sprain. He will have an interesting matchup going against Thunder center Chet Holmgren. Fantasy managers will want to make sure they have Nurkic back in their lineup, as he is averaging a double-double on the season (11.3 PPG and 11 RPB). Drew Eubanks filled in for Nurkic last game but will return to a reserve role on Friday.
Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) is questionable heading into Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Nurkic is in danger of missing his second consecutive game with a sprained right ankle. The Suns started Drew Eubanks in Nurkic's spot during a win over the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday evening. Thaddeus Young and Bol Bol were the reserves to get more time in a game without their starting center active. Nurkic is one of the rare consistent contributors for Phoenix's limited roster depth, and they badly need wins to end the regular season, so keep an eye on the injury report before game time.
Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) might have to skip Wednesday's battle against Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets. He tweaked his right ankle against the Spurs on Monday and has been listed as questionable on the injury report. Drew Eubanks will be asked to step up in a big way if Nurkic isn't able to go on Wednesday. He will find himself in a really tough matchup but should be able to improve on his season averages in a bigger role. Eubanks has posted 5.3 points and 4.3 rebounds across 15.7 minutes for the campaign.
Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (eye) will be in the lineup on Saturday versus Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs. Phoenix's starting center has been upgraded from probable to available. Saturday will mark Nurkic's 14th consecutive appearance. He's been quiet offensively this month and will likely also find it tough on the attacking end against Wembanyama, but Nurkic averages 14.3 rebounds for the month with 3.9 rebounds and 1.1 blocks. He should still be productive for fantasy managers in a fast-paced game.
