Portland center Jusuf Nurkic to play in Game 3 against the Golden State Warriors

The Warriors have not seen Jusuf Nurkic in a Trail Blazers uniform. After missing the last seven games of the regular season and first two of the playoffs with a non-displaced right leg fibular fracture, Portland Center Jusuf Nurkic will play in Game 3 against the Golden State Warriors. Before it was confirmed that Nurkic was playing, Portland head coach Terry Stotts said that if Nurkic were to play, he would be starting but would play restricted minutes.
