Jusuf Nurkic Enters COVID-19 Protocols, Out On Monday
3 years agoPortland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic has entered health and safety protocols, making him unavailable for Monday's matchup versus Dallas. Nurkic is averaging nearly a double-double this season, and his absence is even worse, considering the team remains without C.J. McCollum (lung). Robert Covington also won't play, so Larry Nance Jr. and Nassir Little should handle most of the minutes underneath the basket. Both have upside in deep seasonal formats, and they should garner plenty of interest in DFS contests as well.
