Fails to step up Nurkic closed with 10 points (4-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal in 25 minutes during Thursday's 140-108 loss to Denver. Impact Shareholders looking for Nurkic to see an uptick in production sans Damian Lillard (abdomen), CJ McCollum (personal) and Anfernee Simons (personal) were disappointed. Attempting only nine shots is certainly underwhelming, but he at least salvaged the night with a versatile stat line. He's been a fringe top-10 fantasy asset at the center position.
