Nurkic doesn't move well which doesn't bode well for his defensive potential. There's a good reason he doesn't play that much despite Jokic struggling with foul trouble.
He's averaging 2 TOs so my guess would be no, but those types of centers (Nurkic, willy, Pekovic, etc.) seem ideal as bench scorers rather than guys you'd play 35 minutes a night in a playoff series. Especially if you can't shoot.
