Nnaji is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves due to low back pain. Nnaji has appeared in 16 straight games, averaging 10.9 minutes during that stretch. If he's sidelined Tuesday, Peyton Watson and DeAndre Jordan would be candidates for a few extra minutes off the bench.... See More ... See Less

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Muted impact in win
Nnaji ended with two points (1-1 FG), three rebounds and one assist in six minutes during Thursday's 130-127 victory over Golden State. Nnaji has scored just 10 total points across his last eight appearances. While he is averaging 0.9 blocks over that span, Nnaji has not received a large enough role in Denver's frontcourt to garner serious fantasy consideration.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Scores 14 points
Nnaji had 14 points (5-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 20 minutes during Monday's 130-104 victory over the Mavericks. Nnaji scored eight of his 14 points in the fourth quarter with the game getting out of hand quickly. His 14 points mark a new season high, and the same is true of his minutes (20). Nnaji has been the third-string center behind Nikola Jokic and DeAndre Jordan and has made just three appearances in December, but credit to him for staying ready when his number was called....

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Scores five off bench
Nnaji closed Thursday's 124-101 victory over the Nets with five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist over six minutes. Nnaji has fallen out of the Nuggets' rotation recently, but he saw a handful of minutes during Thursday's comfortable win. While he was relatively efficient off the bench, he isn't a fantasy-relevant option as long as Denver's frontcourt is relatively healthy.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Eight points from bench
Nnaji recorded eight points (3-8 FG, 2-5 FT), seven rebounds and three blocks in 12 minutes during Monday's 113-104 win over the Clippers. Nnaji was expected to draw the start with Nikola Jokic (back) out, but the Nuggets elected to play the matchup and pit DeAndre Jordan against his former team. While the decision succeeded with flying colors, Nnaji still had an impact in 12 minutes on the court. Although one shouldn't expect Jordan to stay this productive, Monday's switch puts a question mark next to Nnaji's future as Jokic's direct replacement.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Good to go Wednesday
Nnaji (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Magic. Nnaji has been upgraded from probable to available despite dealing with a right ankle sprain. He should continue to serve as Denver's backup center behind Nikola Jokic.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Dealing with minor ankle sprain
Nnaji is probable for Wednesday's matchup against Orlando due to a right ankle sprain. Nikola Jokic was ejected from Monday's contest against Detroit, which allowed Nnaji to play 14 minutes. He posted seven points, one rebound and one block during the narrow win, but it appears he picked up a minor ankle sprain. Nnaji is still on track to suit up versus the Magic, but he'll probably see fewer minutes with Jokic back in the lineup Wednesday.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Scores nine in defeat
Nnaji produced nine points (4-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt), five rebounds and two blocks in 18 minutes during Wednesday's 110-89 loss to Minnesota. Nnaji signed a four-year contract extension with the Nuggets during the offseason, and while he's had consistent minutes off the bench, he hasn't displayed much fantasy upside. He had one of his best performances of the young season during Wednesday's defeat but is unlikely to see a significant uptick in production as long as the Nuggets stay fairly healthy.... See More ...

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Signs contract extension Saturday
Nnaji signed a four-year, $32 million contract extension with the Nuggets on Saturday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. Nnaji won the battle to open the 2023-24 season as the backup to Nikola Jokic, and while his fantasy upside will be minimal in that role, there's no question the Nuggets believe in him and his long-term potential. Nnaji is expected to have a more prominent role in this upcoming campaign and will look to improve on the 5.3 points, 2.7 rebounds and 0.4 blocks across 14.0 minutes per contest he averaged in 2022-23....

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Puts up 17 points off bench
Nnaji recorded 17 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds, an assist, a steal and a blocked shot across 21 minutes in Tuesday's 115-107 win over the Suns Now in his third season with the Nuggets, Nnaji is once again trying to hold on to a spot in the rotation as Nikola Jokic's backup. He put in more work than his competition, as DeAndre Jordan and Peyton Watson saw limited action. His role seems safe for now, but with Jokic playing max minutes in the regular season, Nnaji's fantasy impact will be negligible.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Available Thursday
Nnaji (knee) will play Thursday against the Suns. Nnaji has been dealing with a right knee issue for the past few games, but he'll make his return to the lineup Thursday. With most of the Nuggets' starters not playing, it's possible that Nnaji starts and sees extended minutes.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Status uncertain against Phoenix
Nnaji (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Suns. Nnaji is in danger of missing his third straight game Thursday due to a right knee sprain. If he's unable to suit up, his next chance to do so is Saturday's matchup with Utah.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Ruled out Tuesday
Nnaji (knee) will not play Tuesday against the Rockets, according to Mike Singer of the Denver Post. Nnaji will sit out for a second straight game. When asked about Nnaji's knee, coach Michael Malone said he's hopeful to get him back after Tuesday's game. Denver's next contest will be April 6 against Phoenix. With Nnaji out, Denver's backup center options include Thomas Bryant and DeAndre Jordan.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Questionable Tuesday
Nnaji (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Houston. Nnaji missed Sunday's game against the Warriors due to a right knee issue, and it's unclear whether he'll be able to return Tuesday. Nikola Jokic (calf) is also questionable, while Thomas Bryant and DeAndre Jordan would likely see increased playing time if Nnaji or Jokic is out.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Ruled out Sunday
Nnaji (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Warriors, per coach Michael Malone, Mike Singer of the Denver Post reports. Nanji is dealing with a right knee issue that will cost him at least one game as the Nuggets begin to look ahead to the final week of the regular season. With Nikola Jokic (calf) expected to sit out again Sunday, Thomas Bryant and DeAndre Jordan should see most of the work at center.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Questionable against Warriors
Nnaji is questionable for Sunday's game versus Golden State due to a right knee sprain. It's unclear when Nnaji injured his knee, but it could hold him out of Sunday's contest. He is averaging 4.7 points and 4.0 rebounds in 15.0 minutes across his last six games since returning from a shoulder injury.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Sticks in rotation Monday
Nnaji totaled six points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and two assists in 13 minutes during Monday's 116-111 victory over the 76ers. Nnaji exceeded 10 minutes for the fourth straight game, although once again failed to offer much in terms of fantasy value. Across those four games, he has scored a total of just 17 points, which is certainly nothing to write home about. Managers need not waste their time even considering him, outside of the deepest of leagues.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Returns from 17-game absence
Nnaji (shoulder) recorded four points (2-2 FG), five rebounds, one assist and one block across 12 minutes during Sunday's 108-102 victory over the Nets. Sunday marked Nnaji's first action since Feb. 5, when he sustained a sprained shoulder. The Arizona product was eased back into the rotation and should be set for a slight uptick in minutes down the stretch as one of Denver's few trusted reserve big men behind Nikola Jokic. With Nnaji back in the mix, Thomas Bryant didn't leave the bench Sunday in a coach's decision.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Officially available
Nnaji (shoulder) will play in Saturday's game against the Knicks. Nnaji will make his first appearance since Feb. 5 after dealing with a sprained right shoulder. Considering the lengthy absence, he will likely face a minutes restriction for the contest. Although it's unclear how much he will play, he could swipe some minutes away from Jeff Green, Vlatko Cancar and Thomas Bryant.... See More ... See Less -
Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Expected to play Saturday
Nnaji (shoulder) is in line to play Saturday against the Knicks, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports. Nnaji has been sidelined since Feb. 5 with a sprained right shoulder but will be available to make a return to the hardwood. Nnaji saw at least 20 minutes of playing time in six of his last nine games leading up to the injury but will likely be under a heavy minutes restriction given the month-long absence. Regardless, his return could mean fewer minutes for Jeff Green, Vlatko Cancar and Thomas Bryant.... See More ... See Less
