Aldama’s looming absence should mean Jock Landale will return to the starting lineup. Landale scored 21 points off the bench in his last game out, and he’s averaged 11.2 points, 8.5 rebounds and 2.2 assists across his last six starts.

Gordon was back in the Nuggets’ lineup after sitting out Sunday’s loss to the Hornets, pushing DaRon Holmes II (DNP-CD) out of the rotation entirely. While he didn’t record any defensive stats, Gordon’s points, rebounds, assists and three-pointers were solid. The combination of decreased defensive production and poor foul shooting has negatively affected Gordon’s fantasy value recently, pushing him outside the top-100. That said, he’ll be worth holding onto as long as the Nuggets are without Nikola Jokić.

Two nights removed from being limited to 11 points in a blowout loss to the Hornets, Watson was more productive against the Lakers. The fourth-year forward recorded a complete stat line in his 38 minutes, and he has offered consistently reliable value over the past month. Rostered in 43 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Watson has been a sixth-round player in eight-cat formats over the past month. He’s worth rostering until Christian Braun (ankle) and Cameron Johnson (knee) return from their injuries.

Like Jamal Murray, Tuesday’s game was a tale of two halves for Jones. After making all four of his three-point attempts during the first half, he was 0-of-3 from beyond the arc after halftime. Jones shot 2-of-5 from the field in the second half, and the Nuggets blew a 14-point lead. The two-way contract forward has filled in admirably over the last few weeks, but he’s barely been a top-200 player over the past month. There’s no need to add Jones, especially with Aaron Gordon back in the lineup.

Murray’s shot from just beyond half court capped an 8-0 Nuggets run to end the first half, during which he scored 26 points. Murray appeared to be well on his way to an outstanding night. Give the Lakers credit for adjusting their defensive approach, sending more doubles Murray’s way, and he may have been a bit too deliberate with his decision-making. The Nuggets’ guard scored two points in the second half as Denver watched a 14-point lead slip away. Murray will look to bounce back on Thursday against the Wizards.

Gordon is back after sitting out Sunday’s loss to the Hornets, sparking the lone change to Denver’s starting lineup. He steps in for DaRon Holmes II, who is not worth rostering in redraft leagues.

Hardaway’s knee contusion did not sideline him for Sunday’s loss to the Hornets, but he struggled in his 13 minutes on the floor. Capable of bouncing back with a quality showing against the Lakers, THJ is only worth the risk in deep redraft leagues.

After sitting out Sunday’s loss to the Hornets, Gordon is back. His return likely pushes DaRon Holmes II to the bench, where his already low fantasy ceiling disappears. There’s no need to consider holding onto Holmes in redraft leagues.

The Grizzlies are back stateside after splitting two games in Europe with the Magic. Yet to miss a game this season, Aldama logged 25 minutes in Sunday’s win over Orlando. If he’s unable to play on Wednesday, Santi would likely be replaced in the starting lineup by Jock Landale.

This will be a sixth straight absence for Braun, and as of Friday, he was still limited to non-contact work. Braun could remain sidelined for a while longer, which means Peyton Watson and Spencer Jones should both remain in the starting unit for now.

THJ is managing a knee contusion, but it isn’t expected to keep him out of the lineup. He remains a streaky option for fantasy managers; he only had six points in 13 minutes on Sunday after scoring 30 points on Saturday. He should occupy his typical role off the bench against Los Angeles.

Gordon missed Sunday’s game, which was the second night of a back-to-back. DaRon Holmes returned to the starting lineup in his place, but he was out of the rotation entirely in their previous game. With Gordon expected back, Holmes likely won’t see the floor much against Los Angeles.

Murray is still managing inflammation in his knee, but it shouldn’t keep him out of the lineup against Los Angeles. He was held to just 16 points on Sunday, but he should respond with a better outing against the Lakers.

It certainly qualifies as an underwhelming performance on the heels of an explosive 42-point effort during Saturday’s win over the Wizards. Murray struggled to get going on the second night of a back-to-back as Denver looked completely out of sync, shooting just 41 percent overall to finish with only 87 points. The Nuggets have a four-game slate next week that features showdowns against the Lakers, Wizards, Bucks and Grizzlies.

Strawther took advantage of the lopsided score to do some serious damage off the bench, hitting 5-of-7 shots, including 2-of-3 from beyond the arc. The seldom-used 23-year-old guard has played sparingly this season, even with all of Denver’s injury issues, but he’s capable of producing double-digit points with consistent playing time.

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 Valančiūnas pushed Holmes, who missed all of last season with a ruptured Achilles, into the starting lineup.

Sunday’s game is the second in as many nights for the Nuggets, who continue to exercise caution with Gordon’s workload. DaRon Holmes II was the replacement the last time Gordon missed a game, but Zeke Nnaji played more minutes and was more productive.

Gordon’s workload is still being managed due to a lingering hamstring injury, and it’s possible he sits out the second leg of Denver’s back-to-back set. If Gordon is out, DaRon Holmes II and Zeke Nnaji could see bumps in playing time.

Landale shifted to the bench in favor of Santi Aldama, but the latter delivered a pitiful 9/5/3 line with no defensive contributions. The points represent Landale’s second-highest total of the season, and he should remain active in Memphis’ rotation until Zach Edey (ankle) returns, whether as a starter or with the second unit.

Morant returned from a six-game injury and looked no worse for wear as he went off for 20 points, 10 dimes and four boards in the first half. Memphis cruised to victory in this one, and Morant could have had an even bigger night had this one been more competitive. The Grizzlies will travel home from their European road trip, and won’t play again until Wednesday. Morant’s status moving forward will remain in question as he’s been forced to miss significant time and his name is still on the trade block, but this was good to see for fantasy managers.

Aldama hasn’t missed a game this season, and Sunday’s matchup in London won’t be any different. Expect him to handle his normal allotment of minutes against the Magic.

Morant will be available following a six-game absence, but it’s unclear if he’ll face a minutes restriction after a lengthy absence. Cam Spencer may retreat back to the bench, but given Morant’s recent availability and trade rumors, Spencer remains a hold.

While Gordon didn’t do much scoring on Saturday, the rebounding and facilitating boosted his final stat line. The Nuggets forward recorded his third double-double of the season and first since returning from the hamstring injury that sidelined him for six weeks. While Gordon is ranked outside the top-150 over the past two weeks, it’s fair to expect that the production will continue to improve as he gets further removed from the hamstring injury.

Three games removed from scoring 25 points in a win over the Bucks, Hardaway had his most productive outing since joining the Nuggets last offseason. Shooting 5-of-11 from beyond the arc, he recorded his first 30-point game of the season. Unfortunately, Hardaway didn’t provide much beyond points, three-pointers and percentages, but that’s to be expected, given his fantasy profile. No Nikola Jokić in the rotation does give Hardaway a slightly higher fantasy ceiling, but not to where he becomes a must-roster player in standard leagues.

Watson continues to offer excellent fantasy value as one of the players helping compensate for Nikola Jokić being out with a knee injury. Over the past three weeks, he has been a sixth-round player in eight-cat formats. Since Jokić’s injury, Watson has scored at least 20 points in eight of ten games, and that includes two 30-point performances. Managers in 12-team leagues should add Watson if he’s sitting on the waiver wire.

Despite the Wizards boasting one of the NBA’s worst records, Saturday’s game proved to be more challenging for the Nuggets than many anticipated. Murray made five of his six field-goal attempts during the fourth quarter to help Denver complete its rally. Saturday’s game was the third in which Murray has scored at least 40 points, with the 42 being the most in a game for him since he dropped 52 on the Pacers in early December. Denver plays four games in Week 14, starting with the Lakers on Tuesday.
