The 2nd year Bosnian center has been out for the entire 2015-2016 season thus far as he is recovering from off season surgery to repair a torn patellar tendon. In a recent CSG video,coach Michael Malone said he would need to see Nurkic perform a full contact practice with no ill effects to consider putting him in the game.
