DeAndre Jordan - Draws start MondayJordan is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Clippers.

ImpactJordan earns the start over Zeke Nnaji, who hasn't exceeded an 18-minute workload this season. However, both players will factor into Denver's frontcourt rotation with Nikola Jokic (back) and Aaron Gordon (heel) out. Jordan has started eight games dating back to the beginning of last season, averaging 6.9 points and 9.4 rebounds in 26.2 minutes per game.

Nikola Jokic - Ruled outJokic (back) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Clippers.

ImpactJokic has been downgraded from questionable to out and will miss his first game of the season. The MVP candidate is coming off three straight games with at least 30 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists, so this may be a case of Denver simply being cautious during the second night of a back-to-back set. Jokic's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday versus Houston. Aaron Gordon (heel) is also out, so the Nuggets' frontcourt will be extremely shorthanded, forcing Zeke Nnaji, DeAndre Jordan and Peyton Watson into major roles.
