Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Posts impressive double-double
Murray racked up 31 points (9-18 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 8-8 FT), six rebounds and 14 assists over 39 minutes during Friday's 135-129 win over the Jazz.
Nikola Jokic stole the show with an impressive triple-double, but Murray once again made his presence felt on offense and posted another excellent stat line. The star floor general, who was coming off a 53-point performance in the win over the Mavs on Wednesday, has scored at least 30 points in three of his last five appearances, averaging 31.6 points per game and shooting 54 percent from the floor in that stretch. Since the All-Star break, Murray is putting up an excellent per-game line of 25.1 points, 4.4 rebounds, 6.0 assists and 0.7 steals per game while making 43.5 percent of his three-pointers.

Nuggets' Tim Hardaway: Drains five threes
Hardaway totaled 21 points (5-12 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 6-7 FT) and one steal in 28 minutes during Friday's 135-129 victory over the Jazz.
Hardaway is one of the best long-range shooters in the NBA right now, and he showed that with an impressive performance in what turned out to be a tighter-than-expected win. Perhaps more importantly, Hardaway bounced back from the four-point dud he posted in the win over Dallas on Wednesday. The lack of consistency on a game-to-game basis limits Hardaway's potential from a fantasy perspective, but he's a player who can get hot at any moment. He has scored at least 20 points in four of his last eight games, but he's also produced single-digit outputs three times over that stretch. Still, as a player who's making a career-high 40.9 percent of his threes this season, Hardaway should be a player to roster even with his ups and downs.

Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Scores 17 points in return
Gordon provided 17 points (6-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 31 minutes during Friday's 135-129 victory over the Jazz.
Gordon returned to the lineup after a one-game absence and continues to find ways to produce. Even though the veteran forward won't be tasked with carrying the offense as long as Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic are available, his contributions on that end of the floor are extremely valuable, and he's also a proven commodity in fantasy. Gordon is averaging 14.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 0.6 blocks per game in nine appearances this month since returning from a lengthy 17-game absence due to a hamstring injury between Jan. 27 and March 5.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Triple-doubles in victory
Jokic supplied 33 points (13-16 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 5-8 FT), 15 rebounds, 12 assists and one steal across 39 minutes in Friday's 135-129 win over the Jazz.
Jokic turned in an extremely efficient performance and racked up his fourth straight triple-double. He also scored at least 20 points for a sixth consecutive contest. The superstar led Denver in points and rebounds while finishing second on the team in assists behind Jamal Murray (14 assists). Over his last four games, Jokic has averaged 25.3 points, 16.8 rebounds, 15.5 assists and 1.0 steals in 36.8 minutes per contest.

Nuggets' Spencer Jones: Won't start Friday
Jones won't start Friday's game against the Jazz.

Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Cleared to play vs. Jazz
Gordon (hamstring) is available for Friday's game against the Jazz.

Nuggets' Tim Hardaway: Fails to fire in victory
Hardaway ended Wednesday's 142-135 victory over the Mavericks with four points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and two assists across 27 minutes.
Hardaway went cold from the floor, continuing a pattern of recent inconsistent performances. Although his role has remained relatively predictable, his shooting has been spotty, making him a tough player to hold in standard leagues. In eight appearances over the past two weeks, he has been outside the top-250 players, averaging 11.5 points and 2.6 three-pointers in 24.1 minutes per contest.

Nuggets' Peyton Watson: Pops for 21 points in win
Watson produced 21 points (7-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and three assists over 23 minutes during Wednesday's 142-135 victory over Dallas.
Watson found some rhythm on the offensive end, scoring 21 points in what was just his second game back since returning from a hamstring injury. While the scoring was impressive, he was limited to just 23 minutes and failed to record a defensive stat for the second straight game. Given the likely limitations, Watson is a borderline asset right now, depending on your league format and season-end date.
