Nurkic looks like he is lumbering up and down the court sometimes but he is a nice two-way player. Earlier this year against Sacramento, Nurkic put together a five by five game meaning he had at least five points, rebounds, assists, blocks, and steals.
Nurkic is one of the more underrated bigs in the game but someone the Blazers can play through and be effective.
