6 years agoPortland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic put up a solid line in just 17 minutes of action in the win. Nurkic dominated inside when he was out there as he scored 16 points and hauled down nine rebounds with two steals. The Lakers went small a lot tonight which led to Nurkic riding the pine in this one and with Zach Collins providing solid minutes at the backup center spot, this trend may continue depending on matchups. Either way, Nurkic will still provide decent lines in and around the 25-minute marker.--Gianni Costantiello
