6 years agoPortland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic had his hands full trying to fight for rebounds with DeAndre Jordan on Tuesday, but hard work paid off and he did get into double figures in the end. The big Bosnian finished with 11 rebounds. Sadly he couldn't provide a double-double, coming one point short on 4-for-9 shooting. On the positive side, Nurkic extended his streak with at least one steal to six games and he had two blocks. He'll face Deandre Ayton and the Suns next. Ayton and the team as a whole haven't done well against opposing centers this season, giving up 25.7 points and 16.5 rebounds per 48 minutes.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
