The NBA is back, which means the trolls of NBA Twitter are as well. Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic, unfortunately, had to deal with one of them.

After the Blazers defeated the Houston Rockets on Tuesday, Nurkic reacted to a video of Rockets superstar Russell Westbrook telling Damian Lillard he didn't appreciate Nurkic's hard foul.

That's when an Oklahoma City Thunder/Westbrook fan tweeted Nurkic's injury video. The Blazers center took the high road per usual.

Kudos to Nurkic for keeping his cool here. Social media can be a dark place at times and this is one example of it.

In the three games so far at Disney World, Nurkic is averaging 22.0 points, 12.3 rebounds and 4.3 assists in 31.3 minutes per contest. The Bosnian Beast doesn't look rusty at all, as he's shooting 50.0 percent from the field and a perfect 100.0 percent from the free-throw line in 19 attempts.

The Blazers are back in action on Thursday against Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets. As of this writing, Portland is in ninth place in the Western Conference standings and one game behind the Memphis Grizzlies — who are 0-4 at Disney World.

After making it all the way to the Western Conference Finals last season, Portland was inconsistent for much of the season before games were suspended in March. Now that Jusuf Nurkic and Zach Collins are playing again though, the Blazers could make some serious noise at Disney World.
