Nnaji was initially listed as probable, so his availability isn’t surprising. Nnaji played four minutes in a blowout win on Friday, and while he could play more minutes with Aaron Gordon out, he won’t play enough to provide any real value in the box score.

Nnaji is officially available after being listed as probable on the Nuggets’ initial injury report. However, this does not mean he’ll play rotation minutes. Fantasy managers can leave him on the waiver wire.

Nnaji should be available, but that doesn’t mean he’s going to play. He hasn’t seen the floor during Denver’s last three games and has yet ot play 10 minutes in a game this season.

The Nuggets have four new starters for Wednesday’s game, with Pickett being the lone holdover from the quintet that started Tuesday’s loss to the Timberwolves. Westbrook, Tyson, Nnaji and Jordan are all worth streaming, as is Pickett, due to Denver’s many absences.

The 24-year-old power forward played 23 minutes off the bench in Sunday’s game against the Thunder while dealing with the injury. Expect Nnaji to have a similar role Monday, though he doesn’t carry much fantasy value.

Nnaji was initially probable for Friday’s game but has been upgraded to available. While he will play rotation minutes, his fantasy ceiling is limited due to Nikola Jokic and Aaron Gordon also being available.

Nnaji should be good to go against Phoenix, but his only path to true value in fantasy basketball is if Nikola Jokic (ankle) is sidelined. In that scenario, Nnaji will be worth streaming. If Jokic suits up, Nnaji will be a solid reserve for them, but he won’t contribute much in the box score.

Nnaji, initially questionable for Wednesday’s game, is available to play. How much he’ll play depends partially on the availability of Nikola Jokic and Aaron Gordon, who are game-time decisions. Nnaji will only have streaming value if one of those two starters cannot play.

Nnaji may miss a game for the first time since January due to a left ankle sprain. With Nikola Jokic, Aaron Gordon and Peyton Watson all questionable to play, Nnaji’s chances of contributing on Wednesday will be dependent on the status of those players. If they’re all out and Nnaji plays, he may hold some streaming value.

Filling in for the injured Aaron Gordon (ankle), Nnaji sprained his left ankle during Friday’s win over the Pistons. Both are considered questionable for Sunday’s game. Both being sidelined would likely force the Nuggets to go small, with Russell Westbrook or Julian Strawther moving into the starting lineup.

Aaron Gordon is out with a sprained ankle, so he’s been replaced by Nnaji in the starting lineup. In that role, Nnaji offers modest streaming value, and deep-league managers should also consider turning to Julian Strawther.
