Jamal Murray totaled 12 points (4-of-17 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, four assists and one block in the loss to the Timberwolves on Thursday.

Murray struggled on Thursday on both ends of the floor. On offense, the length of Jaden McDaniels sure had an impact, as the veteran point guard had more missed shots than total points. He was also attacked as a one-on-one defender repeatedly down the stretch, ultimately allowing some key Minnesota ...

Cameron Johnson added 27 points (8-of-15 FGs, 6-of-9 FTs), eight rebounds, three assists, one block and five three-pointers in Thursday’s loss to the Timberwolves.

Johnson rose to the occasion on Thursday, logging one of his best performances of the season. Despite the loss, he drained half of his 10 three-point attempts, nearly pulled down double-digit rebounds, and finished as one of Denver’s most reliable scoring options on the evening. Johnson came into th...

Nikola Jokić finished Thursday’s loss to the Timberwolves with 28 points (11-of-19 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), nine rebounds, 10 assists, one block and one three-pointer.

Jokić logged another impressive stat line in Thursday’s loss, impacting the game as a scorer, facilitator, and rebounder. He shot the ball efficiently overall despite not finding his touch from beyond the arc. Yet, his contributions weren’t enough to keep Denver from another early playoff exit. The ...

Peyton Watson (hamstring) is out for Thursday’s Game 6 against the Timberwolves.

Due to a strained right hamstring, Watson has not appeared in a game since April 1. That will remain the case for Game 6, resulting in more minutes for fellow reserves Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bruce Brown.

Spencer Jones had 20 points (7-of-9 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, one assist, three steals and four three-pointers in Monday’s Game 5 win over the Timberwolves.

Jones averaged just 5.5 points during the regular season and was yet to make his mark on these playoffs. In Games 3 and 4, he had six points in 53 minutes combined. With Aaron Gordon (calf) out for Game 5, Jones moved into the starting lineup and had 20 points in 37 minutes. Regardless of Gordon’s s...

Jonas Valančiūnas had 23 points (9-of-14 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), 17 rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one three-pointer in the Nuggets’ 127-107 victory over the Thunder on Friday.

The Nuggets’ backups beat the Thunder’s backups and Valančiūnas led the way with a monster game down low. The 33-year-old center has shown over the past two seasons that he can put up great fantasy games when given the opportunity. Valančiūnas can be considered a league-winner in currently active fa...

Zeke Nnaji (hip) is available to play against the Trail Blazers on Monday.

Nnaji will be back following a two-game absence. However, with the rest of the rotation healthy, he will only play a small role, if he sees the floor at all.

Bruce Brown (ankle) is available to play against the Trail Blazers on Monday.

Brown will be available after initially being listed as probable for this game. He exited early on Saturday, but that won’t keep him sidelined for this one. He’ll play his typical reserve role, which has been too limited for him to make much of a fantasy impact.

Tim Hardaway Jr. (knee) is available for Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

Hardaway was a full participant in Friday’s practice and is now good to go. He’ll provide production off the bench and is a worthwhile option for deep-league managers who need three-pointers.

Jalen Pickett (knee) is questionable to play against the Thunder on Friday.

Pickett has missed Denver’s last two games but could return to take on OKC. Jamal Murray (illness) is also questionable, so if he is sidelined, Pickett could start. The next point guard in line if both are sidelined would be KJ Simpson.

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that the Nuggets plan to sign KJ Simpson to a two-way contract.

With Spencer Jones set to be upgraded to a standard contract, the Nuggets will have a two-way contract slot to work with. According to Charania, the team has decided to use the available slot to sign Simpson. The 42nd overall pick in the 2024 draft, the 6-foot point guard was waived by the Hornets a...

Jamal Murray, Jalen Pickett, Spencer Jones, Peyton Watson and DaRon Holmes II will start Sunday’s game against the Hornets.

The Nuggets won’t have Aaron Gordon for Sunday’s game, as he’s sitting due to hamstring injury management. He’ll be replaced in the lineup by Holmes, but don’t be surprised if Zeke Nnaji plays more minutes. That’s how things worked out earlier in January when injuries to Nikola Jokić and Jonas Valan...
