Impact The third-year forward has started 11 straight games dating back to Feb. 7, but Strawther's production has been erratic of late as he's scored in single digits in three of the last six.

Starting Saturday Strawther will start against the Bulls on Saturday.

Impact The 23-year-old wing will get the starting nod for the second time this season due to Aaron Gordon (hamstring), Peyton Watson (hamstring) and Spencer Jones (concussion) being sidelined. During his lone start this season in a Jan. 23 win over Milwaukee, Strawther posted 20 points, five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 27 minutes.

Drops 15 points in loss Strawther finished Tuesday's 124-121 loss to the Pistons with 15 points (6-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and two assists over 23 minutes.

Impact Strawther scored double digits for the first time in the past five games, and for just the fifth time this season. With Spencer Jones nearing his games' limit, Strawther was able to play a meaningful role, something that can't be said for his season thus far. At this point, Strawther is simply a name to watch, just in case Denver doesn't convert Jones' contract.

Not starting Tuesday Strawther won't start against the Pistons on Tuesday.

Impact With Jamal Murray (hamstring/hip) back in the lineup, Strawther will shift back to a bench role. Over his last five appearances off the bench, the 23-year-old swingman has averaged 4.2 points in 11.8 minutes per tilt.

Paces Denver in win Strawther logged 20 points (6-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 27 minutes during Friday's 102-100 win over Milwaukee.

Impact Strawther made his first start of the season with Jamal Murray (hamstring/hip), Christian Braun (ankle) and Peyton Watson (ankle) sidelined and capitalized on the opportunity by leading Denver in scoring during a win. The Gonzaga product entered Friday averaging just 3.8 points and 1.3 rebounds in 9.7 minutes across 22 appearances, inconsistently factoring into the regular rotation. While his usage is likely to dip as the Nuggets get healthier, outings like this can help keep Strawther in the mix for minutes moving forward.
