Out Sunday Caldwell-Pope (illness) will not play Sunday against the Kings.

Impact With KCP watching from the sidelines Sunday, Christian Braun could be heading for a spot start, and he'd make for an intriguing target in daily fantasy leagues. Caldwell-Pope is feeling a little under the weather, but he should be fine by the time the playoffs roll around.

Downgraded to out Caldwell-Pope (illness) will not play in Thursday's game against the Suns.

Impact Caldwell-Pope has been battling a non-COVID illness for around a week and will miss a second game due to the issue. His absence should open up more opportunities for the likes of Bruce Brown, Christian Braun and Peyton Watson. Caldwell-Pope's next chance to play will come Saturday in Utah.

Durant has 30 points, Suns beat Nuggets for 4th straight win

Will not play Friday Caldwell-Pope (illness) will not play Friday against the Suns.

Impact Caldwell-Pope will be joined by Nikola Jokic (calf), Jamal Murray (rest) and Michael Porter (rest) on the shelf for Friday's contest. With Denver so shorthanded, we could see a lot of Christian Braun on the wings. Reggie Jackson could find himself back in the rotation as well.

Status uncertain for Friday Head coach Mike Malone relayed after Thursday's game versus the Pelicans that Caldwell-Pope was feeling under the weather and nearly sat out, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports....

Impact Caldwell-Pope played a full 29 minutes in Thursday's contest but struggled overall, connecting on just one of his seven attempts from the field while missing all of his four three-point tries. The team's injury report Friday should supply a clearer picture of whether or not KCP is feeling well enough to give it a go in the second night of the back-to-back set.

Solid production in win Caldwell-Pope racked up 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal across 28 minutes during Saturday's 129-106 victory over the Bucks.

Impact Caldwell-Pope scored in double figures for the first time across his past four games and tied his season high with eight rebounds. The veteran shooting guard hasn't missed a game since Feb. 5, averaging 9.9 points, 3.2 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 32.5 minutes over his past 20 appearances.

Back on track Thursday Caldwell-Pope notched 20 points (7-15 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound, two assists and three steals over 30 minutes during Thursday's 119-100 win over the Pistons.

Impact Caldwell-Pope got things moving in the right direction Thursday, taking full advantage of what was a favorable matchup. He had been slumping prior to this game, even moving into drop territory in some leagues. While the 20 points should be viewed as an outlier, he does have the ability to contribute on both ends of the floor, making him a versatile asset on most nights.

Fails to connect from deep Caldwell-Pope closed Monday's 118-113 victory over the Raptors with six points (3-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists and one steal across 36 minutes.

Impact Caldwell-Pope struggled with his three-point shot again and is shooting just 22.2 percent (4-for-18) over his last five games. The veteran has somewhat savaged his production during that stretch by recording at least one steal in each of those contests, but his overall fantasy value is certainly tied to his three-point shot. Caldwell-Pope is still shooting 44.3 percent from deep on the season, so it's safe to assume he'll bounce back from his recent struggles eventually.

Modest results in win Caldwell-Pope had eight points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound and three steals over 38 minutes during Sunday's 134-124 overtime win over the Clippers.

Impact Caldwell-Pope wasn't aggressive offensively and snapped a three-game double-digit scoring streak. However, he somewhat savaged his production by swiping at least three steals for the third time over his last four appearances. The veteran sharpshooter is averaging 11.4 points on 48/45/84 shooting splits and is currently tied with his career-high mark of 1.4 steals per game.

Posts quality cross-category line Caldwell-Pope provided 14 points (4-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, five assists, three steals and one block across 32 minutes in Wednesday's 118-109 win over the Mavericks.

Impact Though he rarely delivers standout production in any one area, Caldwell-Pope has been a dependable back-end roster option in 12-team leagues thus far in February. Through seven appearances this month, Caldwell-Pope has averaged 11.3 points, 3.4 assists, 2.9 rebounds, 1.1 three-pointers, 1.1 steals and 0.9 blocks in 29.6 minutes per contest while shooting 50.8 percent from the field and 91.7 percent from the free-throw line. Caldwell-Pope doesn't appear to have the ability to raise his floor any higher, however, as his production in February has come with Jamal Murray (knee) and Aaron Gordon (ribs) missing the past six and three games, respectively.

Puts up 11 points in blowout Caldwell-Pope had 11 points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 146-112 victory over the Timberwolves.

Impact The likes of Nikola Jokic, Aaron Gordon and Michael Porter grabbed all the headlines following Tuesday's dominant win over the Timberwolves, but Caldwell-Pope still posted a decent stat line while scoring in double digits for the third time over his last four games. He's averaging 11.0 points while shooting 43.8 percent from three-point range since the start of January.

Good to go Caldwell-Pope (ankle) is available for Tuesday against the Timberwolves.

Impact The Nuggets will have most of their starting lineup back, but Jamal Murray will not be available for this one. With KCP starting, Christian Braun will return to the bench and will see his fantasy value take a hit.

FEBRUARY 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to play Tuesday Caldwell-Pope (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's matchup against the Timberwolves.

Impact Caldwell-Pope sprained his right ankle during Saturday's contest and didn't play Sunday, but it appears he'll return to action Tuesday. The sharpshooter continues to provide sporadic production for Denver and has averaged 11.6 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 1.9 assists in 30.8 minutes over his past 14 appearances.

Jokic, 3 other starters out for Nuggets at Timberwolves

Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic has been ruled out for their game at Minnesota because of left hamstring tightness

FEBRUARY 5, 2023 • Associated Press

Officially out Sunday Caldwell-Pope (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.

Impact Caldwell-Pope was considered doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup due to a sprained right ankle, so it isn't very surprising to see him ruled out. Christian Braun and Bruce Brown are candidates to see increased run against Minnesota.
