6 years agoPortland Trail Blazers center Enes Kanter started his postseason campaign with a dominant performance on Sunday against the Thunder, scoring 20 points on 8-for-15 shooting and grabbing 18 rebounds. He was also surprisingly good on the defensive end, swatting away two shots and registering one steal while finishing with a game-high plus-15 rating. Kanter has a point to prove in the series after OKC let him go in the Carmelo Anthony trade back in 2017. The team would certainly like to have Jusuf Nurkic (leg) available, but Kanter hasn't been a bad option as his replacement.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
