Starting Friday Brown will start Friday's game against the Thunder, Justin Martinez of The Oklahoman reports.

Impact The Nuggets are holding their regular starters out Friday, opening the door for Brown to enter the starting five. Over two starts this season, the veteran guard has averaged 15.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 36.5 minutes per tilt.

Loaded stat line in win Brown registered 13 points (5-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-5 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 26 minutes during Wednesday's 136-119 win over the Grizzlies.

Impact Brown continues to see regular playing time off the bench, and since that scenario isn't likely to change, his fantasy contributions will remain inconsistent. Although Brown has proven to be able to stuff the stat sheet when needed, he won't carry a lot of upside due to his limited role. Over his last 10 games, the veteran is averaging 9.7 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, shooting 43.5 percent from deep but failing to score in double digits five times over that stretch.

Cleared to play Monday Brown (ankle) will play Monday night against Portland.

Impact Brown was added to the injury report as probable due to a left ankle issue, but it won't keep him from taking the court Monday evening. He's averaging 8.8 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.4 steals in his last five outings.

Probable for Monday Brown (ankle) is probable to play Monday against the Trail Blazers.

Impact Brown exited Saturday's win over the Spurs after tweaking his left ankle, but it doesn't appear he plans on spending any additional time on the sidelines. Check back for official confirmation on his status closer to Monday's tipoff.

Impact The severity of the injury is unclear, but he was ineligible to return since he wasn't able to do the jump ball while being evaluated in the locker room. Brown can be considered questionable for Monday's game against Portland.

Big night on defense against Jazz Brown ended with 11 points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one block and four steals in 27 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 130-117 win over Utah.

Impact The four steals tied his season high, while the five combined stocks established a new high-water mark in 2025-26 for Brown. The 29-year-old guard has been a useful part of the second unit in his second tour with the Nuggets, scoring in double digits in six of the last 10 games while averaging 9.8 points, 3.2 boards, 1.5 assists, 1.3 threes and 0.8 steals over 21.6 minutes.

Another 12-point performance Brown contributed 12 points (4-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and three rebounds in 21 minutes during Friday's 121-115 victory over Toronto.

Impact Brown scored 12 points for the third time in the past four games, adding very little in terms of peripheral numbers. Despite averaging 23.5 minutes per game in 16 appearances over the past month, Brown has struggled to put up meaningful contributions. During that time, he has averaged just 7.9 points, 0.9 steals and 1.0 three-pointers, leaving him well outside the top 250.

Continues playing limited minutes Brown recorded 12 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one block over 19 minutes during Tuesday's 124-96 victory over the 76ers.

Impact While Aaron Gordon (hamstring) will be rested in Wednesday's game against Memphis, Brown's role and fantasy value has become diminished overall since Gordon returned from a lengthy absence. Brown has averaged 8.0 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 19.0 minutes per contest in his last six games, shooting 51.6 percent from the floor.

Limited role in loss Brown closed Monday's 129-126 loss to Oklahoma City with four points (1-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 16 minutes.

Impact With Aaron Gordon back at full strength, Brown is going to have to settle for a reduced role with the second unit. With a low usage rate and modest workload, there isn't much fantasy appeal here.
