Murray was one of many Nuggets who did not play in Friday’s loss to the Hawks. Jalen Pickett replaced him in the starting lineup and would do so again if Murray can’t play on Sunday.

Williams won’t be available for Sunday’s game due to an illness, meaning he’ll miss out on a shot at extended minutes with Michael Porter Jr. (rest) also sidelined. Cam Thomas’ minutes have been limited since his return from a hamstring injury, but his usage may increase even if the playing time doesn’t.

Sunday’s game is the first of two in as many days for the Nets, so Porter getting a night off for rest is unsurprising. Danny Wolf moved into the starting lineup the last time that MPJ missed a game, so fantasy managers should anticipate the same on Sunday. Wolf is worth holding onto in deep leagues, as the Nets have another back-to-back during Week 13.

The avalanche of injuries to key contributors in Denver has created an opportunity for Watson to put together a mini-breakout, scoring 20-plus points in six consecutive games since December 31. The 23-year-old forward recorded his second double-double of the season with Jamal Murray (ankle, illness) sitting out. He’s experienced a noticeable uptick in creation possessions and increased scoring duties over the last two weeks, averaging 21.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.9 blocks over eight games during that span.

Gordon hasn’t skipped a beat in three games since returning from a lengthy absence recovering from a hamstring injury, averaging 15.3 points, 7.0 assists, 3.0 assists over 23 minutes during that span. The Nuggets are going to keep a governor on his workload for the immediate future but he’ll continue providing his usual blend of points and rebounds for fantasy purposes.

The Nuggets won’t have Jamal Murray or Spencer Jones for Friday’s game, opening two spots in the starting lineup. Pickett and Tyson will fill the voids, with the latter’s inclusion an indication that Aaron Gordon remains under a strict minutes restriction. While fantasy managers don’t need to consider streaming Tyson, Pickett is worth the risk in deeper formats.

Like Jamal Murray (ankle, illness), Jones’ status was downgraded on two separate occasions ahead of Friday’s game. His absence may result in Bruce Brown starting, but Aaron Gordon is another possibility. However, Gordon’s minutes restriction would likely need to be relaxed for that to happen.

Initially questionable for Friday’s game, Murray’s status has been downgraded twice since and he will not be available.

Absent from the initial injury report released by the Nets, Porter is considered probable to play on Friday. When MPJ missed Brooklyn’s first two games of 2026, rookie Danny Wolf was moved into the starting lineup. That could be the case if Porter’s status is downgraded on Friday.

Clowney’s final stat line was an interesting one. Inefficient shooting, especially from beyond the arc, where he shot 0-of-5, kept him from putting many points on the board. Yet, he tied season-highs in assists and steals along the way to provide some solid fantasy production. His start to 2026 has been a rough one from a three-point shooting standpoint — Clowney is now without a three-pointer in three of the four games he’s appeared in. Once he regains his rhythm, the scoring production should return.

Demin stole the show late with a pair of three-pointers, including one that looked to be the go-ahead basket in overtime before Paolo Banchero delivered the actual game-winning triple just moments later. Demin also led his team in assists and has now scored in double figures in eight of his last nine appearances. As the rookie gets more games under his belt, he continues to impresss. He could be someone worth monitoring in fantasy leagues as the season goes on.

After being stuck in the twenties for six straight games, Porter Jr. utilized eight three-pointers to help him land his first 30-point game in nearly a month. He was efficient inside the arc as well and capitalized on his only couple of free-throw attempts, while also coming up big on the defensive end with a handful of steals. Porter Jr. continues to produce at a high level from a fantasy basketball standpoint in his first season with the Nets, and will look to keep things rolling against the Clippers on Friday.

Nikola Jokić’s left knee injury did not result in Nnaji moving into the starting lineup, but it has freed up additional opportunities for the former first-round pick. Over the past week, the 6-foot-9 forward/center has averaged 12.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals, 1.5 blocks and 1.5 three-pointers in 24.6 minutes per game. That production has been good for top-100 value in eight-cat formats. DaRon Holmes II (six points, two rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two three-pointers) may be the starter right now, but Nnaji offers the higher streaming ceiling.

Watson finished Wednesday’s victory with his second career 30-point game, finishing two shy of his career-high. The Nuggets’ forward, who initially moved into the starting lineup when Christian Braun went down with a sprained ankle, has been close to a top-100 player in eight-cat formats over the past month. Even with Braun back in the starting lineup and Aaron Gordon available off the bench, they’re under minutes restrictions, which protects Watson’s fantasy value.

Back in the Nuggets’ lineup after sitting out Monday’s win over the 76ers, Murray made up for lost time with one of his best all-around lines of the season. The Nuggets’ point guard racked up a career-high 17 assists, finishing two rebounds shy of a triple-double. Murray’s final line was Nikola Jokić-like, and the Nuggets need that level of production from him with the three-time MVP still recovering from a left knee injury. Over the past week, Murray has offered top-15 value in eight- and nine-cat formats, according to Basketball Monster.

Watson has been a scoring machine for the shorthanded Nuggets. Since Nikola Jokić injured his knee, Watson has averaged 23 points per game. He has been average in other categories, but he has been on an offensive tear. He coughed the ball up a career-worst six times in this game, but the rest of his performance was strong and helped Denver steal a win on the road. Watson will remain a must-roster player until Aaron Gordon (hamstring) returns, and he should still hold value beyond that.

Nnaji hasn’t filled the starting center spot with both Nikola Jokić (knee) and Jonas Valančiūnas (calf) sidelined, but he has been solid as the backup to DaRon Holmes II. However, in this game, he was more than just a solid reserve. Nnaji matched his career high for points, nearly recorded a double-double and contributed four “stocks” in 32 minutes off the bench. Whether he moves into the starting lineup or continues to come off the bench, Nnaji is the better option than Holmes as a fill-in.

With Jamal Murray (ankle) sidelined for the second night of Denver’s back-to-back, Pickett entered the starting unit in his place. It was his fourth start of the season, including his third in their last four games. The result was a new career high for points for the 2023 second-round pick. Murray should be back for their next game on Wednesday in Boston, so Pickett likely won’t be able to provide an encore. However, he may have earned himself more minutes, and he will have more streaming appeal during his next start.

Porter came back to haunt his former club by knocking down 8-of-17 shots, including 2-of-6 from beyond the arc, to record his seventh double-double of the season. The 27-year-old playmaking forward didn’t appear impacted at all by a two-game absence earlier this week due to illness. He’s been a revelation in his Brooklyn debut, delivering top-25 overall fantasy value, averaging 25.9 points, 7.6 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.2 blocks through 27 games. The Nets have just three games on tap next week when they host the Magic and Clippers before a road tilt against the Grizzlies.

Clowney played a key role on both ends of the floor for Brooklyn in this one as he poured in eight and 11 points in the first and third quarters, respectively, to help them snap a three-game losing streak. The 21-year-old playmaking forward had little trouble exploiting Denver’s lack of interior defenders and also went 4-of-6 from beyond the arc. He’s been too hit-or-miss to emerge as a reliable fantasy option in shallow leagues, but he’s shown some flashes of big-time all-around upside.

Due to injuries, Williams was one of three replacements in the Nets’ starting lineup on Thursday. While the scoring was solid, the steals category is where the former first-round pick stood out. Williams’ five pilfers were a career-high, and he’s recorded at least one in five straight games (11 total). If Michael Porter Jr. remains out, Williams will be worth a look for deep-league managers needing steals, but the offensive production has been inconsistent.
