Nuggets' Spencer Jones: Listed as questionable
Jones (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Hawks.
Jones is considered day-to-day after leaving Wednesday's game early with knee soreness. Over his last seven outings, Jones has averaged 8.3 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.4 three-pointers in 23.8 minutes per contest.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Logs 12 minutes in win
Nnaji posted two points (1-1 FG), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 12 minutes during Wednesday's 135-120 victory over the Pacers.
Nnaji has logged over 10 minutes only four times this season and has been rather unproductive with his time on the court, averaging 3.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.5 blocks in those games. With Aaron Gordon (hamstring) out for the next several weeks, Nnaji will inevitably see more playing time, but his nonexistent production makes him a non-factor in fantasy leagues.

Nuggets' Hunter Tyson: Back in rotation Wednesday
Tyson logged zero points (0-1 FG) across two minutes during Wednesday's 135-120 win over the Pacers.
Tyson played for just the third time in the past 10 games and for just the eighth time this season. All but one of his appearances have come during garbage time, averaging 0.3 points in 3.5 minutes per contest. There is no reason to consider him a viable fantasy asset.

Nuggets' Curtis Jones: Rare appearance Wednesday
Jones accumulated two points (1-2 FG) and one rebound across two minutes during Wednesday's 135-120 victory over Indiana.
Jones played his second game of the season, both of which have come during garbage time. Currently on a two-way contract with Denver, Jones is unlikely to play any sort of meaningful role, making him a non-factor in all fantasy formats.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Struggles in victory
Johnson ended with nine points (3-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 135-120 win over the Pacers.
Johnson failed to hit any great heights, scoring single digits for the first time in his past six games. After a slow start to the season, Johnson has been playing better of late, thanks largely to the fact that both Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Christian Braun (ankle) are sidelined. Although his ceiling is somewhat limited, Johnson remains a must-roster player, at least until the Nuggets are fully healthy.

Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Drops 52 points in win
Murray exploded for 52 points (19-25 FG, 10-11 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 135-120 win over the Pacers.
Murray could not be stopped Wednesday evening, as he rained in a new career high in triples while notching the third 50-point performance of his career. He moved past Carmelo Anthony for the most 50-point games in Nuggets history, and he joined Aaron Gordon as the only other Denver players to notch 50 points and 10 triples in a single game.

Nuggets' Spencer Jones: Unable to return
Jones (knee) was unable to return to Wednesday's game versus the Pacers, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports.
Jones was considered questionable to return, but the Nuggets were able to pull away from the Pacers quite comfortably. Jones finished with one point (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT) in 17 minutes.

Nuggets' Spencer Jones: Questionable to return Wednesday
Jones is questionable to return to Wednesday's game against the Pacers due to right knee soreness, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports.
The Nuggets are currently up by 20 points late in the third quarter, so it's unlikely Jones will return to Wednesday's game. Expect Bruce Brown and Tim Hardaway to pick up the slack in Jones' absence.

Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Will play vs. Pacers
Murray (ankle) will play in Wednesday's game against Indiana.
The star guard is shaking off a questionable tag with an ankle sprain, and he should be able to handle his normal workload. Murray has averaged 23.3 points, 6.7 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 34.8 minutes per tilt over 19 games this season, shooting 41.5 percent from beyond the arc.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Available to play
Jokic (wrist) is available for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Jokic, who has yet to miss a game this season, will shake off another probable tag for this contest. This is an injury he continues to manage, but there's no report of any restrictions.

Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Questionable with sprained ankle
Murray is questionable for Wednesday's game against Indiana due to a sprained right ankle.
The star guard sustained the injury in Monday's defeat to the Mavericks. If Murray is unable to play Wednesday, the Nuggets could deploy Bruce Brown as their starting point guard, which would significantly increase his fantasy upside.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Probable for Wednesday
Jokic (wrist) is probable for Wednesday against the Pacers.
Jokic continues to nurse a left wrist sprain, but he's yet to miss a game this season. Jokic is the current leader for total nine-category fantasy value with averages of 29.0 points, 12.8 rebounds and 11.1 assists.

Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Leaves early due to ankle injury
Nuggets head coach David Adelman said that Murray will be evaluated Tuesday after the point guard didn't play in the fourth quarter of Monday's 131-121 loss to the Mavericks after spraining his right ankle early in the third quarter, Michael Kelly of the Associated Press reports. Murray finished the game with 10 points (3-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine assists, four rebounds and one steal in 26 minutes.
Murray departed less than a minute into the third due to the injury, but after a brief visit to the locker room, he checked back into the game with 7:09 remaining in the period. He went on to play the final seven minutes of the quarter but was passive during his time on the court, as he didn't attempt a shot before sitting out the final 12 minutes entirely. Adelman relayed afterward that he's hopeful Murray will be available for Denver's next game Wednesday in Indiana, though the 28-year-old's status will hinge on what his upcoming evaluation reveals. If Murray ends up missing time, the Nuggets could have to lean more heavily on supporting players such as Spencer Jones (career-high 28 points Monday) and Peyton Watson (15 points, five rebounds, three assists and three blocks), both of whom had already picked up more minutes while replacing the injured Christian Braun (ankle) and Aaron Gordon (hamstring) in the stating five. A potential Murray absence could also open up more minutes in the backcourt for Bruce Brown and Tim Hardaway.

Nuggets' Jonas Valanciunas: Strong showing in limited minutes
Valanciunas ended with eight points (4-7 FG), seven rebounds and two assists across 11 minutes during Monday's 131-121 loss to Dallas.
Valanciunas has done a fine job backing up Nikola Jokic, averaging 8.2 points and 4.8 rebounds across just 12.6 minutes this season. His fantasy floor is very limited, as he hardly ever sees the court at the same time as Jokic.

Nuggets' Peyton Watson: Chips in 15 points in loss
Watson ended Monday's 131-121 loss to the Mavericks with 15 points (7-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and three blocks in 35 minutes.
While he struggled from beyond the arc, Watson still finished as Denver's third-leading scorer. The 23-year-old forward has scored in double figures in five straight games, grabbing at least five boards in each of them. He also tied his season-high mark in blocks Monday. Watson has been a mainstay in the starting lineup of late and should remain in the first unit with Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Christian Braun (ankle) sidelined.

Nuggets' Spencer Jones: Sets career high in loss
Jones finished Monday's 131-121 loss to the Mavericks with 28 points (11-15 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and five rebounds over 39 minutes.
After scoring 16 points on 6-for-10 shooting in Saturday's win over Phoenix, Jones set a new career-high mark in points on extremely efficient shooting Monday. The 24-year-old has started five consecutive games and should continue to see meaningful run with Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Christian Braun (ankle) sidelined.
