Jusuf Nurkic In Starting Lineup Friday
Jusuf Nurkic is making his anticipated return to the lineup on Friday against the Magic. Nurkic has missed the majority of the season after suffering a fractured wrist on January 14-though he'll be back- albeit on a minutes restriction, with head coach Terry Stotts saying that he'll only play five minutes at a time. Nurkic's return will push Enes Kanter back to the bench, meaning he'll have lesser value after rattling off monster double-doubles in recent games. Nurkic won't be an incredible play in his first few games, but he could do enough in a limited role against a Nikola Vucevic-less Magic frontcourt to warrant starting him in DFS.
