    • Nearly double-doubles
      Nurkic provided nine points (3-5 FG, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals over 20 minutes during Sunday's 122-116 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Nurkic was very inconsistent in the first round against the Timberwolves, which was the case for most of the team, to be fair. Overall, Nurkic had a solid regular season campaign for Phoenix, averaging 10.9 points, 11.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.1 blocks and 1.1 steals. Nurkic will remain under contract for two more seasons.

    • Double-doubles in loss
      Nurkic finished with 10 points (5-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 14 rebounds and four assists over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 105-93 loss to Minnesota in Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Nurkic grabbed a game-high 14 rebounds to go with 10 points, tallying his first double-double of the series. While he was more involved, the Suns still came up short, falling behind 2-0 in the series. Game 3 will be in Phoenix on Friday, where Nurkic will look to be even more of a force on the interior against the size of the Timberwolves. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 8:46 pm
       
    • Jusuf Nurkic grabs game-high 14 rebounds Tuesday
      Jusuf Nurkic tallied 10 points (5-of-11 FGs, 0-of-2 FTs), 14 rebounds, and four assists in 31 minutes in Tuesday’s 105-93 loss to the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Phoenix is headed home in a 0-2 hole, and they’ve had their hands full with Rudy Gobert. Nurkic has done what he can in the post, recording a double-double in Game 2 after offering limited production in the series opener on Saturday. Still, Minnesota’s size has given the Suns trouble. Kevin Durant scored 18 points but was not as efficient as in Game 1, shooting 6-of-15 from the field. He added six rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one blocked shot in 41 minutes, but KD missed both of his 3-point attempts. Durant, Nurkic, and the Suns will attempt to shift the series’ momentum on Friday night in Phoenix. Rotoworld Tuesday, 7:55 pm
