2 years agoUpcoming unrestricted free-agent center Jusuf Nurkic is expected to receive plenty of offers in July. However, the Blazers hold the big man's bird rights, which will make Portland the favorite to retain his services. The 27-year-old has emerged as one of the best at the center position throughout his tenure in Portland, and he recently finished the 2021-22 season by averaging 15.0 points, 11.1 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.1 steals before succumbing to a foot injury. Still, Nurkic's shooting percentages could improve, especially from deep, and his inability to remain healthy is a significant reason why he hasn't been a more impactful fantasy option over the years.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller
