Shines bright in victory Thursday Brown supplied 15 points (6-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt), five rebounds, nine assists, one block and one steal over 32 minutes during Thursday's 122-110 victory over Oklahoma City.

Impact Brown logged in excess of 30 minutes for the third time in his last four games, providing serviceable production across the board. With the Nuggets shorthanded, it was Brown who stepped up, something that shouldn't come as a surprise. He currently sits just outside the top 120 for the season, making him a viable 12-team commodity. While he isn't necessarily a must-roster player, he is certainly worth grabbing on nights when the Nuggets need reinforcements in the backcourt.

Impressive in starting role Brown recorded 18 points (7-12 FG, 4-6 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 110-99 victory over the Lakers.

Impact After coming off the bench for two consecutive games, Brown drew the start in place of Michael Porter (back). Although he saw a season-high in minutes due to the start, he's logging fantasy-relevant time with the second unit. Through five games, Brown is averaging 11.4 points, 3.4 assists. and 2.8 rebounds in 27.2 minutes per game.

Joins starting five Brown will start Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Impact With Michael Porter (back) sidelined for Wednesday's contest, Brown will make his second start of the season. In his last appearance as a starter on Oct. 21 against the Warriors, Brown posted 20 points, five assists, one rebound and a steal across 30 minutes of action.

Coming off bench Saturday Brown will come off the bench Saturday against the Thunder.

Impact With Jamal Murray (rest/knee) back in the lineup, Brown will resume his expected bench role. In the opener, he played 21 minutes in the blowout loss to the Jazz but posted an impressive 20 points, five assists, one rebound and one steal in 30 minutes during his start against the Warriors on Friday.

Scores 20 points in spot start Brown totaled 20 points (8-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, five assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Friday's 128-123 victory over Golden State.

Impact Jamal Murray sat out the contest as he eases back into action after missing all of last season with an ACL tear, and Brown was the surprise starter in his place. The latter stepped in admirably, finishing second on the team with 20 points while dishing five dimes. Brown was very efficient from the field with an 8-for-10 line, which isn't particularly surprising since he's shot over 50 percent each of the past two campaigns. Despite the strong performance, Brown will likely move back to the bench when Murray presumably returns for Denver's next contest, so there's no need to rush to the waiver wire.

Getting start Friday Brown will start Friday's game against he Warriors in place of the injured Jamal Murray (knee), Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

Impact This is a bit of a surprising development, as it seemed likely either Bones Hyland or Ish Smith would get the nod with Murray sidelined. Instead, Brown will get the initial run with the starting unit and figures to see a minutes bump as a result. Brown played 21 minutes in the opener and finished with eight points, one rebound and one assist. He could be in line to increase his assist totals Friday if the Nuggets operate with him on the ball.

Shifts to bench for opener Brown will come off the bench for Wednesday's season opener against the Jazz, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Impact With Jamal Murray rejoining the starting unit for Wednesday's opener, Brown will shift to a reserve role against the Jazz. While Murray will draw the start, he is expected to be on a minutes restriction, so Brown should still see plenty of run as a bench option. In 72 appearances with the Nets last season, Brown averaged 9.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.1 steals in 24.6 minutes per game.

Heading to Denver Brown agreed to a two-year, $13 million deal with the Nuggets on Friday, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Impact After averaging 8.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.0 steals per game across his last two seasons in Brooklyn, Brown is swapping conferences. With the Nuggets recently trading Monte Morris and Will Barton, the 25-year-old shouldn't have too much trouble finding the court with his new team. While Brown could be set for a career-best year, fantasy expectations should be tempered with Denver's offense clearly focused on Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray and Michael Porter.

Gone in a flash Brown logged two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 24 minutes during Monday's 116-112 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Brown opened the series with a two-point effort, then he supplied consecutive monster outings which featured 20-plus points and eight rebounds apiece, and he finally vanished into the offseason with a five-point effort Monday. The 25-year-old averaged 9.0 points per game on 40.4 percent shooting from beyond the arc during the regular season. He will be an unrestricted free agent in the coming months.

Paces team with 26 points Brown chipped in 26 points (10-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-6 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals over 40 minutes during Saturday's 109-103 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Were it not for Brown and Nicolas Claxton, the Nets could have been blown out early. The duo played lights out throughout the first half, and it's not surprising that Brown was the open man to begin the game. The Celtics have had enormous success in containing Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, so the Nets have been forced to find production elsewhere. Brown's 26 points marked a playoff career-high, and the team will need similar production from him if they hope to extend their playoff life.

Strong performance in Game 2 Brown amassed 23 points (8-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal across 38 minutes during Wednesday's 114-107 loss to Boston.

Impact After a quiet outing in Game 1, Brown exploded for the first nine points of Game 2 and played an integral role for Brooklyn throughout the game. The fourth-year wing finished second on the team in points and assists, while tying Kyrie Irving for a team-high eight rebounds. Brown also registered multiple blocks and at least one steal in the same game for the eighth time this season. However, his all-around performance wasn't enough as the Celtics pulled away in the fourth quarter behind a stellar performance from Jayson Tatum.
