Brown’s contributions this season have been inconsistent, but he’s still capable of making a large impact. He matched his season high for steals and scored in double digits for a second straight game while playing a season-high 32 minutes. Brown isn’t worth rostering, but he is still making an impact off the bench for Denver.

He wasn’t able to come anywhere close to his 52 points from Wednesday’s game, but Murray was still able to have a productive night. 17 of his 23 points came in the second half to help Denver get the comeback win in Atlanta. Murray is enjoying the best season of his career, and it could result in his first All-Star appearance in February.

It was a tale of two halves for Jokić. He struggled mightily in the first half of this game and entered the break with 10 points on 2-of-13 shooting, but he came out firing to start the third quarter. He had 19 points without missing a shot in the third, which brought Denver within striking distance, and then he added 11 more to complete the comeback. Jokić failed to record a double-double for just the second time this season, but it was certainly a masterclass performance.

Jones left Wednesday’s game against the Pacers with right knee soreness, but is available for Friday’s game against the Hawks. The 24-year-old power forward should continue to provide solid streaming value with Aaron Gordon still sidelined.

Jones was forced to exit Wednesday’s win over the Pacers with a sore right knee. Due to Aaron Gordon’s absence, the second-year forward has been in the starting lineup, providing solid streaming value. If Jones can’t play on Friday, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bruce Brown have the most to gain regarding playing time. Zeke Nnaji could also pick up a few more minutes, but Hardaway and Brown are the players to consider adding.

Jokić rarely takes a backseat to anyone, but his teammate Jamal Murray scored 52 points against the Pacers on Wednesday. The 30-year-old center was still just two rebounds shy of a triple-double. Jokić will have two more chances at a triple-double this period with weekend matchups against the Hawks and the Hornets.

Murray’s dream start to the season continued Wednesday as he dropped 52 points on 25 shots in the win over the Pacers. The 28-year-old point guard knocked down a career-high 10 three-pointers. Murray is averaging career-highs across the board this year and ranks inside the top-10 in standard leagues.

One game removed from scoring a career-high 28 points, Jones was limited to 17 minutes before exiting Wednesday’s contest with a sore right knee. With Aaron Gordon already out, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bruce Brown took on more prominent roles within the Nuggets’ rotation after Jones’ exit. That will be the case if he can’t play on Friday against the Hawks.

No surprise here as Jokić was initially listed as probable with a wrist injury. The 30-year-old center continues to play through a wrist injury, though that didn’t stop him from recording his 11th triple-double of the season against the Mavericks on Monday. Jokić is in line for another big game against the Pacers on Wednesday.

Murray is all set to play after exiting Monday’s loss to the Mavericks with a sprained right ankle. He’ll occupy his usual place in the starting lineup, with Bruce Brown and Tim Hardaway Jr. missing out on boosts to their playing time. Both will still be in the rotation, but their fantasy upsides are limited.

Jokić continues to play through the wrist injury, but it hasn’t impacted his production. It also isn’t expected to keep him out against Indiana. He had a 29/20/13 line on Monday and should be in for another big night.

Murray exited early on Monday, and there is a chance he remains out against Indiana. In Murray’s lone absence this year, which ironically came against the Pacers, Jalen Pickett started at point guard and played 17 minutes. He may get the nod, but Bruce Brown would be the better replacement for fantasy managers.

Jones bested his career-high 16-point performance against the Suns by scoring over 20 points for the first time on Monday. Efficient shooting throughout and high production from beyond the arc nearly led the second-year forward to the 30-point mark. With Aaron Gordon (hamstring) out, Jones has seen more action than previously. He’ll likely remain in the starting unit for the time being, which should make him a potential streaming option for fantasy managers who may value three-point production.

Jokić entered Monday’s contest having come up just shy of a triple-double in each of the previous two games. He made sure to check that box against the Mavericks, to secure his 11th triple-double of the season. Yet, inefficient shooting left him unable to carry the Nuggets past the Anthony Davis-led Mavs, as Denver has dropped three of its last five games. The Nuggets, already without Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Christian Braun (ankle), lost Jamal Murray on Monday to an ankle sprain. Given the injuries, Jokić may have to shoulder even more of the load in the near future.

Watson’s strong play continued on Monday. He scored in double figures for the fifth straight time and sixth time in the last seven games, giving him an average of 17.7 points over that period. The fourth-year wing is averaging double figures in points on the season for the first time in his career, and has enjoyed a strong first quarter of the season from an efficiency standpoint. His rebounding and assist numbers are also at career-bests — his nightly contributions will remain necessary so long as Christian Braun (ankle) and Aaron Gordon (hamstring) are sidelined.

Murray, who was initially considered questionable to return after spraining his right ankle, is now doubtful to return with the contest being well into the fourth quarter. Bruce Brown has been asked to fill the void at point guard, which also makes Nikola Jokić an even more valuable playmaker for others in addition to himself.

Jokić will take the floor again, looking to continue his season-long dominance. For the second straight season, the former Finals MVP is averaging a triple-double and nearly 30.0 points per game, and is posting the best shooting splits of his career. He should be in for another strong performance on Monday, as the Nuggets face a struggling Mavericks team.

Brown is available after being listed as questionable initially. While Tim Hardaway Jr. will miss out on a bump in playing time, both players will be part of the Nuggets’ rotation. Brown will take on his usual reserve duties, and he hasn’t provided consistent fantasy value in that role this season.

If Brown is unable to take the court, Tim Hardaway Jr. would be the player most likely to absorb his minutes off the bench. Hardaway Jr. already has some standalone value as a three-point specialist, but he could be worth streaming in standard leagues if Brown is ultimately ruled out.

It has been over two weeks since Strawther suited up, and there is no end in sight. Strawther’s role has been a minimal one this year, so his absence doesn’t impact Denver’s rotation much. Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bruce Brown will continue to fill out the wing minutes off the bench.

Jokić is still dealing with a wrist injury to his non-shooting hand, but that shouldn’t keep him out of the lineup against Dallas. He has fallen one rebound short of a triple-double in two straight games and will look to snap that streak to start out the week.

Hardaway has played a consistent role off the bench for Denver this year, but this was one of his best performances. He matched his season high for points while also setting a new season high for three-pointers. THJ will continue to play an important role for the Nuggets, but his production will be too volatile for him to be considered a player worth rostering in standard leagues.

Jokić fell one rebound shy of a triple-double for a second straight game, but the difference in this one was that Denver walked away with a win. Jokić continues to dominate every single night, and he was perfect from the floor in this game. His lone missed shot attempt ended up coming at the free throw line. Denver has a four-game week coming up, so expect plenty more monster performances from Jokić.

Jones started for the fourth straight game, but he was unproductive in the first three. However, he set career highs for points, rebounds and three-pointers to help Denver bounce back from a loss 24 hours prior. Jones should continue to start, but this type of performance likely won’t happen often. It was nice to see him play well, but he should be left on the waiver wire.

Brown was questionable on the second leg of the back-to-back, but he’ll be available to suit up. He’ll play his typical role off the bench, which hasn’t resulted in much fantasy value from him this year.

Jokić will be good to go despite the initial questionable tag. The wrist injury isn’t on his shooting arm, so it shouldn’t prevent him from having a big night, especially with Phoenix playing this game without Mark Williams.

Brown had three points in 19 minutes in Friday’s loss to the Spurs. The 29-year-old shooting guard’s status is up in the air for Saturday’s game against the Suns given his questionable listing. Brown isn’t worth rostering in most formats regardless of his availability.

Jokić missed a triple-double by one rebound against the Spurs on Friday night. The 30-year-old center’s status is up in the air against the Suns on Saturday given his questionable listing. If Jokić is out, Jonas Valanciunas will start for the Nuggets and is worth streaming.

While the absences of Christian Braun and Aaron Gordon have to be considered, Johnson appears to be getting more comfortable with his new teammates. He’s hit double figures in three straight and five of his last six appearances, with Friday’s being the best of the bunch. Johnson has provided top-50 value over the past two weeks. He’s still rostered in 77 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and those who didn’t give up on Johnson are being rewarded for their patience.

Jović finished one assist shy of a triple-double, but he had a solid night shooting the basketball. He remains the highest-ranked player in fantasy basketball, but that isn’t a surprise to anyone. Jokić and the Nuggets will look to bounce back on Saturday when they visit the Suns.
