Top Nuggets News

  • Nuggets' Julian Strawther: Not playing Thursday

    Strawther (back) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Kings.

    Strawther has been sidelined by a back injury since mid-November, but the good news for the third-year forward is that he has been increasing his participation in practices, though he has yet to be cleared to engage in full basketball activities. Strawther's next opportunity to play is Monday against the Rockets, though he's unlikely to play unless he is cleared to participate in 5-on-5 practice scrimmages.

  • Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Return not imminent

    Gordon (hamstring) is not expected to return before Christmas, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

    The Nuggets announced back on Nov. 23 that Gordon suffered a Grade 2 right hamstring strain, and they said he would be re-evaluated in 4-to-6 weeks. For that reason, a return before Christmas was highly unlikely anyway. For now, fantasy managers should plan to be without Gordon until the early part of January. Meanwhile, Peyton Watson will likely remain heavily involved for Denver.

  • Nuggets' Julian Strawther: Goes through 3-on-3 work

    Strawther (back) participated in 3-on-3 scrimmages after Tuesday's practice, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

    It doesn't sound like Strawther has been cleared to engage in full basketball activities, though his progress is worth noting. The Nuggets will release their official injury report at some point Wednesday before Thursday's matchup against the Kings, and Strawther can be tentatively deemed questionable at best for now.

  • Nuggets' Jalen Pickett: Logs 16 minutes in win

    Pickett ended with five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 16 minutes during Sunday's 115-106 win over the Hornets.

    Desperate times have called for Pickett to join the rotation Sunday, as the Nuggets are dealing with a slew of injuries to key contributors. However, it is unclear whether Pickett will see regular minutes on the court, as he eclipsed 10 minutes of playing time just three times this season, and he is not a reliable fantasy option in any format.

  • Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Near triple-double vs. Charlotte

    Jokic posted 28 points (11-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 11 assists, nine rebounds and one steal over 35 minutes during the Nuggets' 115-106 win over the Hornets on Sunday.

    It was another stat-stuffing performance from the three-time MVP on Sunday, and Jokic finished one rebound shy of recording his 12th triple-double of the regular season. He is up to a league-leading 21 double-doubles on the year, and he's opened the 2025-26 regular season averaging 29.2 points, 12.3 rebounds, 11.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.8 blocks over 34.9 minutes per game

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Fast start vs. Charlotte

    Murray posted 34 points (14-25 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists, three rebounds and one steal over 35 minutes during the Nuggets' 115-106 win over the Hornets on Sunday.

    Murray came out firing with 21 first-quarter points on 9-for-11 shooting. He cooled off over the last three frames but still finished as the game's leading scorer, and his plus-14 point differential was tied with Spencer Jones for the most on the Nuggets. Over his last 10 outings, Murray has averaged 27.4 points, 7.6 assists, 3.2 rebounds, 4.2 threes and 0.8 steals over 35.9 minutes per game.

  • Nuggets' Tim Hardaway: Logs season high in win

    Hardaway logged 17 points (5-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-5 FT) and six rebounds in 27 minutes during Friday's 134-133 win over Atlanta.

    Hardaway provided a spark off the bench for Denver, leading the second unit in points. The veteran swingman has scored in double figures in six straight games, shooting 41.9 percent from beyond the arc during that span. He also chipped in a season-high six rebounds Friday. While it's encouraging to see Hardaway contribute on the glass, he rarely provides much fantasy value outside of points and three-pointers.

  • Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Double-doubles in win

    Murray chipped in 23 points (8-16 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 12 assists, five rebounds, two steals and one block over 38 minutes during Friday's 134-133 win over the Hawks.

    After scoring 52 points in Wednesday's win over Indiana, Murray recorded his fifth double-double of the season, leading the Nuggets in assists. The star point guard continued his hot streak from downtown as well, shooting at least 50 percent from three-point range for a sixth straight outing. Murray has scored at least 23 points in five of those six games.

  • Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Pours in 40 points in win

    Jokic notched 40 points (13-26 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 13-15 FT), nine rebounds, eight assists, one steal and one block across 36 minutes in Friday's 134-133 win over Atlanta.

    While Jokic was unable to record his 12th triple-double of the season, he still stuffed the stat sheet and led the Nuggets in points and rebounds. Although he struggled from beyond the arc, the three-time MVP scored 40-plus points for the third time across 22 regular-season games. He has finished with at least 20 points in five straight games, racking up three double-doubles and a triple-double during that stretch.

  • Nuggets' Spencer Jones: Available to play

    Jones (knee) is available for Friday's game in Atlanta.

    Jones exited Wednesday's win over the Pacers by halftime due to the knee issue, but he'll return for Friday's game. Jones is averaging 4.3 points on 55.1 percent shooting this season.

  • 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.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • 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.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • 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.
