  • Hornets' Jusuf Nurkic: Solid performance Wednesday

    Nurkic logged nine points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 16 minutes during Wednesday's 102-86 loss to the Magic. Nurkic got the starting nod in his first game as a member of the Hornets. Despite being on a minutes restriction, Nurkic nearly came away with a double-double while also making an impact in the defensive categories. His longer-term outlook remains muddled heading into the All-Star break, however. The status of Mark Williams (not with team) is uncertain while Charlotte disputes the failed physical that resulted in his trade to the Lakers last week being rescinded, but Williams would presumably step back in as the starter if he ultimately sticks around with the Hornets. Even if Williams continues to be held out or if the NBA pushes through his trade to the Lakers, Nurkic could still face a challenge for minutes from Moussa Diabate (eye), who had started the past three games before sitting out Wednesday.

  • Hornets' Jusuf Nurkic: Starting in team debut

    Nurkic is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Magic. With the Hornets missing Mark Williams (not injury related) and Moussa Diabate (eye) on Wednesday, Nurkic will draw the start at center while operating with a minutes restriction in his team debut. Nurkic averaged 9.5 rebounds, 8.8 points, 1.9 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.7 blocks in 24.3 minutes over 23 games as a starter with the Suns this season.

  • Hornets' Jusuf Nurkic: Playing Wednesday vs. Magic

    Nurkic (recently traded) will operate under a minutes restriction in his Hornets debut Wednesday against the Magic, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports. Nurkic was not on the injury report for Monday's loss to the Nets but ended up being a healthy scratch. He's expected to see the court Wednesday, though he'll operate on a minutes restriction while serving as the backup center behind Moussa Diabate (eye).

  • Hornets' Jusuf Nurkic: Now listed as out

    Nurkic (trade pending) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pistons. Nurkic wasn't listed on Charlotte's injury report but has been ruled out via the NBA's official report with a trade pending designation. With Mark Williams (trade rescinded) and Nurkic unavailable, Taj Gibson will be the primary backup to Moussa Diabate on Sunday.

  • Hornets' Jusuf Nurkic: Not on injury report

    Nurkic (trade pending) is not listed on Charlotte's injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Pistons. After falling out of the rotation in Phoenix, Nurkic was traded to the Hornets at the deadline and was waiting for the deal to be finalized. It's unclear what Nurkic's role will be in Charlotte, as Mark Williams is sticking around after the trade to the Lakers fell through and Moussa Diabate recently got a promotion.

  • Hornets' Jusuf Nurkic: Questionable for Sunday

    Nurkic (trade pending) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Pistons. Nurkic was traded from the Suns to the Hornets earlier this week but is still waiting for the deal to be officially finalized before making his Charlotte debut. If Nurkic is unable to suit up against Detroit, Moussa Diabate and Taj Gibson should soak up the majority of the team's center minutes.

  • Hornets' Jusuf Nurkic: Won't make Charlotte debut Friday

    Nurkic (recently traded) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Spurs, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports. Nurkic will sit out of Friday's contest after the Hornets acquired him from the Suns on Thursday. The big man's next chance to play will come Sunday against the Pistons, and he will likely compete with Moussa Diabate for playing time.

  • Hornets' Jusuf Nurkic: Questionable to make debut Friday

    Nurkic (trade pending) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Spurs. Nurkic was shipped from Phoenix to Charlotte on Thursday but is questionable to make his debut Friday as the trade is still being finalized. If the 30-year-old big man is able to suit up, he will likely compete for starting center minutes with Moussa Diabate after the Hornets traded away Nick Richards and Mark Williams.

  • Hornets' Jusuf Nurkic: Traded to Charlotte

    The Suns traded Nurkic and a first-round pick to the Hornets on Thursday in exchange for Cody Martin and Vasilije Micic, ESPN's Shams Charania reports. Nurkic, who fell out of Phoenix's rotation recently, now heads to a Charlotte team that just traded away Mark Williams to Los Angeles. On paper, Nurkic will be the favorite to start at center over Moussa Diabate, but Charlotte is also in the early stages of a rebuild, and it remains to be seen what type of role they envision Nurkic to play. Fantasy managers may want to scoop him up in the meantime, as he can be very productive when the minutes and usage are there.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Good to go Saturday

    Nurkic (conditioning) is available for Saturday's game versus the Wizards, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports. Nurkic is set to return Saturday after missing Phoenix's previous seven outings due to an illness and subsequent return-to-play conditioning. Nurkic will likely compete for backup center minutes with Mason Plumlee behind Nick Richards against Washington.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Goes through practice Friday

    Nurkic (conditioning) participated in Friday's practice, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports. Nurkic has missed Phoenix's last seven contests due to an illness and then return-to-play conditioning. However, the veteran big man's return to practice is a good sign of his availability for Saturday's game versus the Wizards.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Still out Wednesday

    Nurkic (conditioning) is out for Wednesday's game against the Nets. After Nurkic missed seven consecutive games with an illness, the Suns now list him as out due to return-to-play conditioning. His next chance to return comes Saturday against the Wizards, although it's unclear how he'll mix into Phoenix's rotation once healthy. Nick Richards has taken over as the team's new starting center, and veteran Mason Plumlee should work as the backup big man until Nurkic is cleared to play.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Out again Monday

    Nurkic (illness) will not play Monday against the Cavaliers. Nurkic will be sidelined for a seventh straight game Monday. He lost his rotation spot prior to the illness, and the Suns are likely to roll with Nick Richards as their first-choice center going forward.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Remains out Saturday

    Nurkic (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Pistons. Nurkic will miss a sixth straight game for the Suns as he battles an illness. With the veteran big man still sidelined, the newly acquired Nick Richards could get some of his minutes along with fellow veteran big Mason Plumlee.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Listed as out for Thursday

    Nurkic (illness) is out for Thursday's game against the Wizards. After the Suns acquired Nick Richards in a trade with the Hornets on Wednesday, Nurkic's fantasy stock continues to plummet. Nurkic's next chance to play comes Saturday against Detroit, although it's unclear what kind of role he'll have upon returning. If Richards isn't able to join Phoenix's rotation in time for Thursday, Mason Plumlee should continue starting at center against Washington.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Out Tuesday, could miss more time

    Nurkic (illness) is listed as out for Tuesday's game against the Hawks. He also missed Sunday's 120-113 win over the Hornets, with Suns head coach Mike Budenholzer telling Doug Haller of The Athletic beforehand that the veteran center is battling the flu and was considered unlikely to join the team for the start of its five-game road trip that begins Tuesday in Atlanta. Budenholzer said Nurkic could rejoin the team at some point later on in the road trip, but the 30-year-old is unlikely to be part of the Phoenix rotation unless one of Mason Plumlee or Oso Ighodaro misses time. Before sitting out Sunday's game with the ailment, Nurkic didn't play in either of the Suns' previous two games in coach's decisions.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Dealing with illness

    Nurkic won't play Sunday against the Hornets due to an illness. Nurkic has been benched and taken out of the rotation completely since returning from a three-game suspension, so his absence Sunday shouldn't impact Phoenix's current rotation. Mason Plumlee and Oso Ighodaro will continue to split minutes at center for the foreseeable future.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Falls out of rotation

    Nurkic (coach's decision) didn't play during Thursday's 123-115 win over the Hawks. Despite being available for Thursday's contest, Nurkic failed to log any playing time. Since returning from his three-game suspension, the 30-year-old center has been removed from the starting lineup and has now fallen out of the rotation altogether. Mason Plumlee and Oso Ighodaro soaked up all of the center minutes against Atlanta, and it will be worth monitoring to see if this trend continues.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Rough outing in win

    Nurkic provided five points (1-2 FG, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds and one assist over 14 minutes during Monday's 109-99 victory over the 76ers. After returning from suspension and being demoted to the bench, Nurkic didn't do much to make a case to get back in the starting lineup or get more minutes. Nurkic took only two shots against the 76ers, finishing with five points in 14 minutes, and there's no telling what kind of role he'll have on this team moving forward.

  • Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Expected to move to bench

    The Suns are expected to move Nurkic to the bench for Monday's game against the 76ers and replace him in the starting five with Mason Plumlee, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports. Nurkic will make his return from a three-game suspension Monday, but he'll come off the bench for the first time in 24 appearances this season as head coach Mike Budenholzer shakes up his lineups while the Suns are in the midst of a four-game losing streak. In addition to Nurkic, Bradley Beal will also move to the bench, opening up a spot on the top unit for Ryan Dunn. Though the assignment to the second unit will likely lower Nurkic's nightly playing-time ceiling, he was already averaging 24.3 minutes per game, his lowest mark since 2020-21. If Nurkic is able to retain a 20-to-25-minute role on a consistent basis, his fantasy outlook may not dramatically change with the move to the bench.
