Jazz Have Interest in Re-Signing Jusuf Nurkic
The Utah Jazz have interest in re-signing center Jusuf Nurkic, who is headed for unrestricted free agency, HoopsHype's Michael Scotto reports. The 31-year-old averaged a double-double last season, posting 10.9 points, 10.4 rebounds, 4.8 assists, and 1.3 steals in 41 games. Those numbers come with a major fantasy asterisk: Nurkic posted them as a fill-in starter while Walker Kessler was sidelined, before nose surgery ended his season. With Utah's frontcourt potentially healthier and crowded next season, a returning Nurkic projects more as a backup five whose minutes and production would be difficult to repeat. He remains a useful veteran, but his per-game line is unlikely to carry over in a reserve role, leaving him off fantasy radars unless injuries reopen minutes.
