Nerlens Noel

C, Oklahoma City Thunder

Nerlens Noel started for an injured Steven Adams (bruised lower left leg) on Friday and was mildly effective, contributing 11 points on 4-of-6 shooting with four rebounds, one assist and one steal.

Noel, who played a total of 27 minutes in this outing, was disappointing as he did not record a block and produced sub-par rebounding. His outlook took a hit after tonight, but given that Adams is day-to-day, Noel could be in for more minutes down the stretch. He's worth a speculative add at this point, though he's a bit on the dicey side after this game.
