Jusuf Nurkic's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The big man was dealing with a calf issue, but now picked up an ankle injury. If he sits out, Drew Eubanks figures to move into the starting five. He hasn't exactly done much during his starts recently. Fantasy managers should be able to find a better streaming option on a 14-game slate.

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (calf) will suit up to meet the Timberwolves on Friday. The 29-year-old logged 31 minutes in Wednesday's win over the Cavaliers. But he popped up on the injury report because of calf soreness. However, the Suns need every win they can get, so it will take more than that to keep Nurkic off the floor. He struggled the last time he faced Minnesota, finishing with just three points. While there's a good chance Nurkic will play better this time around, the injury could limit his workload enough to lower his fantasy ceiling.

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.
