Jusuf Nurkic

C, Portland Trail Blazers

Jusuf Nurkic had his hands full on Saturday, trying to slow down Anthony Davis, which got him into a bit of foul trouble and it limited him to a pedestrian performance of 10 points (4-of-10 shooting), seven rebounds, three assists with no steals or blocks in 35 minutes.

Nurkic has been struggling with his tough matchup against Davis all series, so his lackluster outing tonight comes as no surprise. It'll take an injury to AD or him missing a game, for Nurk Alert to be able to pop off for a monster line.
