Jamal Murray - Iffy for Tuesday Murray (ankle/illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans.

Impact Murray is dealing with a left ankle sprain and an illness and is in danger of missing his third consecutive contest Tuesday. If he isn't cleared to play, Jalen Pickett and Bruce Brown would likely see increased playing time. Across three appearances this month, Murray has averaged 27.7 points, 13.3 assists and 6.7 rebounds in 38.7 minutes per game.

Christian Braun - Listed out for Tuesday Braun is out for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans due to a left ankle sprain.

Impact The Nuggets deemed Braun probable to play Sunday against the Bucks, but the team ended up ruling him out for that contest. It's unclear if the forward has suffered a setback, considering he missed 23 games with the sprain earlier this year. Tim Hardaway is worth streaming in shallow leagues Tuesday, while Bruce Brown appears to be an option in deeper settings.

Spencer Jones - Should play in New Orleans Jones is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans due to left ankle inflammation and an illness.

Impact Jones ended up playing Sunday against Milwaukee despite dealing with the ankle issue and an illness, so the fact that he's listed as probable for Tuesday is a sign he expects to suit up. He's been stuck in a cold stretch recently, averaging 5.0 points while shooting just 35.0 percent from the field over his last four appearances.

Aaron Gordon - Probable for Tuesday Gordon is probable for Tuesday's game against New Orleans due to a right hamstring strain.

Impact This appears to be precautionary for Gordon, who has now appeared in three straight games after missing time with the hamstring issue. Expect clarification of his availability as tipoff nears.

DaRon Holmes II - Dropped from rotation Holmes (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Sunday in the Nuggets' 108-104 win over the Bucks.

Impact In the absence of Nikola Jokic (knee) and Jonas Valanciunas (calf), Holmes had started in each of Denver's previous five contests, but he averaged just 17.6 minutes per game while shooting 34.8 percent from the field during that stretch. Head coach David Adelman opted to shake things up Sunday, deploying Aaron Gordon as a small-ball starting center while Zeke Nnaji served as the primary backup and Holmes was removed from the rotation entirely. The Nuggets may not necessarily stick with Gordon as their starting center in every matchup while both Jokic and Valanciunas are sidelined, but the instability of Holmes' role will make it difficult to rely on him in the majority of fantasy leagues.

Aaron Gordon - Strong line in win Gordon logged 23 points (7-16 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), six rebounds and four assists in 32 minutes during Sunday's 108-104 win over the Bucks.

Impact Gordon was listed as probable for this contest, but he moved into the starting lineup with a position change -- he operated as a small-ball center with Zeke Nnaji backing him up. Related to this, DaRon Holmes was a healthy scratch. Gordon is still managing some soreness in his hamstring, so a maintenance day could be on the table for one game of the upcoming back-to-back set Tuesday and Wednesday.

Peyton Watson - Strong line in win Watson recorded 19 points (7-19 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, six assists and two blocks across 39 minutes during Sunday's 108-104 win over the Bucks.

Impact Watson's ascension continued Sunday with another terrific two-way showing. The Nuggets have a ton of injuries right now, and that's allowed Watson to take on a larger role offensively. Over his last eight games, he's averaging 22.1 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.1 steals, 1.1 blocks and 2.3 three-pointers on 48.1 percent shooting from the field.

Zeke Nnaji - Double-doubles in win Nnaji amassed 14 points (5-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals in 28 minutes during Sunday's 108-104 win over Milwaukee.

Impact Nnaji recorded his first double-double of the season in what was arguably his best game of the campaign. DaRon Holmes was a healthy scratch Sunday, as the Nuggets opted to roll with Aaron Gordon at center. Nnaji made his presence felt off the bench, and with so many injuries in Denver, he's suddenly on the fantasy radar as someone to monitor.

11 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Tim Hardaway Jr. - Big line off bench Hardaway recorded 25 points (8-12 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds and two steals in 35 minutes during Sunday's 108-104 win over the Bucks.

Impact Jamal Murray (ankle/illness) sat out for the second straight game, and Christian Braun (ankle) was unable to go as well. That created more opportunity for Hardaway, and the veteran took full advantage. He's been trending up over his last seven games, posting averages of 16.4 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 3.4 three-pointers in 29.7 minutes per contest.

Jalen Pickett - Draws another start Pickett registered 13 points (5-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds and four assists over 37 minutes during Sunday's 108-104 win over the Bucks.

Impact Jamal Murray (ankle/illness) sat out for the second straight contest, allowing Pickett to draw another start. Pickett has had some nice moments over his past eight games, posting averages of 10.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.9 steals in 25.0 minutes per contest.
