Julian Strawther (knee) finished Wednesday’s exhibition against the Clippers with 11 points (4-of-9 FGs), two rebounds and three three-pointers.
Strawther was injured in the third quarter of Wednesday’s game when he fell awkwardly, landing with his left leg beneath him after being trapped by two Clippers defenders. Following the game, Nuggets head coach David Adelman said that Strawther will undergo an MRI on Thursday. If he misses time, the...
Mark MedinaJamal Murray accounted for 14 points (6-of-8 FGs), four rebounds, one assist and two three-pointers in Wednesday’s exhibition against the Clippers.
Murray and the other Nuggets starters were shut down at halftime of Wednesday’s game, their penultimate preseason contest. He looked sharp, shooting 75 percent from the field overall. No matter how much Murray plays in Friday’s finale against the Lakers, his fantasy outlook won’t change much. He’s w...
Peyton Watson posted a full line on Tuesday with 10 points (3-of-7 FGs), four rebounds, two assists, one steal, two blocks and one three-pointer against the Magic.
Watson showcased how he’ll be able to make an impact in fantasy hoops this season despite likely not being heavily featured on offense. He’ll certainly get his opportunities, but is fantasy impact will come through well-rounded production, mostly on the defensive end. He’s currently going outside th...
Cameron Johnson accounted for 15 points (5-of-7 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, one assist, two steals and four three-pointers in Sunday’s exhibition against the Bulls.
While Johnson’s production was expected to take a hit after his move to Denver, his debut season in the Mile High City was disappointing. In addition to the perimeter shooting struggles, availability was once again an issue for the veteran forward. Johnson has played 58 games or fewer in each of his...
Nikola Jokić recorded 22 points (8-of-12 FGs, 5-of-7 FTs), 11 rebounds, 10 assists, one block and one three-pointer in Sunday’s exhibition against the Bulls.
Jokić needed just three quarters to record a triple-double, logging 26 minutes. At this point, there’s little to say about the three-time MVP’s fantasy outlook. Regardless of league format, Jokić should be a top-2 pick in drafts, with San Antonio’s Victor Wembanyama being the alternative. - Raphiell...
Aaron Gordon finished Sunday’s exhibition against the Bulls with 25 points (9-of-12 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), six rebounds and three three-pointers.
While Gordon finished the 2025-26 season with increased averages in points, rebounds and three-pointers, injuries limited him to 36 regular-season games. As a result, fantasy managers didn’t reap as many rewards from his improvement as they would have liked. Gordon’s perimeter shooting has improved,...
Tim Hardaway Jr. tallied 14 points (4-of-4 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs) and three three-pointers in Saturday’s exhibition against the Raptors.
With a starting lineup that includes two limited perimeter shooters, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo, the Heat clearly need players who can provide spacing. They signed Hardaway for that reason, and he had an excellent preseason debut on Saturday. The veteran guard didn’t miss a shot from the ...
Knicks signed Bruce Brown to an Exhibit 9 contract.
An Exhibit 9 contract pays the league minimum and is non-guaranteed, which would allow the Knicks to move on from Brown if he suffers a significant injury before the start of the regular season. Brown, a 2023 NBA Champion with the Nuggets, appeared in all 82 games for Denver last year. He averaged 7...
Knicks PRSpencer 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.
NBA Injury ReportJalen 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.
NBA Injury ReportESPN’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...
Shams CharaniaJamal 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...
