Impact Watson has now played 14 minutes in two straight postseason games. Denver's rotation is extremely tight right now, and Watson is second only to Russell Westbrook in terms of minutes played with the second unit.

Bench role vs. Indiana Watson will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Pacers.
Impact After starting six of the last nine games for the Nuggets, Watson will be in the second until for Denver on Sunday against Indiana. In 46 games in a reserve role, Watson has averaged 6.9 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.2 blocks per game while shooting 43.3 percent from the field.

Will play Friday Watson (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Warriors.
Impact Watson will return to game action after missing Wednesday's loss to the Spurs due to right knee inflammation. Over his last five appearances (three starts), the 22-year-old has averaged 12.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.2 blocks and 1.8 assists across 33.2 minutes per contest.

Warriors play the Nuggets on 4-game win streak

Golden State looks to prolong its four-game win streak with a victory against Denver
APRIL 4 • Associated Press
Game-time call for Friday Watson (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Warriors.
Impact Watson sat out of Wednesday's matchup against the Spurs while dealing with right knee inflammation, but he'll have a chance to take the court Friday. Denver will presumably monitor him closely in shootaround before providing an update on his availability.
APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE
Officially out Watson (knee) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Spurs.
Impact Watson will join the entire Nuggets' starting five in street clothes Wednesday. The 22-year-old is battling right knee inflammation. Expect Hunter Tyson, Spencer Jones and Vlatko Cancar to see plenty of action. Watson's next chance to play will come Friday at Golden State.
APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE
Not expected to play Watson (knee) is "not expected to play" against the Spurs on Wednesday, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports.
Impact The absence of Watson would leave the Nuggets extremely thin on the frontcourt, as head coach Michael Malone already announced he's going to sit all five of his usual starters. If Watson ends up being ruled out, Hunter Tyson and Spencer Jones would be in line to see more minutes.
APRIL 2 • ROTOWIRE
Iffy for Wednesday Watson is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Spurs due to right knee inflammation.
Impact Watson logged 45 minutes during Tuesday's 140-139 overtime loss to Minnesota, and now he could be held out for maintenance for the second leg of this back-to-back set. The Nuggets could end up being extremely shorthanded, as Nikola Jokic (ankle), Jamal Murray (hamstring), Michael Porter (personal), Aaron Gordon (calf) and Christian Braun (foot) are also carrying questionable tags.

Nuggets without guard Jamal Murray, forward Michael Porter Jr. for game against Timberwolves

The Denver Nuggets were without two big pieces of their offense in Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. for their game against Minnesot
APRIL 2 • Associated Press
Three more blocks in Friday's start Watson produced eight points (4-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal over 27 minutes during Friday's 129-93 victory over the Jazz.
Impact With Jamal Murray (hamstring) sidelined, Watson got the start and once again made an impact at the defensive end of the court, recording multiple blocks for the fourth straight game. Despite his 6-foot-7 stature, the third-year forward has been an impressive source of rejections since returning from a knee sprain that cost him all of February and the first game of March. Over his last 11 appearances, Watson is averaging 10.2 points, 3.9 boards, 2.1 blocks, 1.5 assists and 1.0 threes in 26.1 minutes a contest while shooting 53.0 percent from the floor and 47.8 percent from long distance.

Starting Friday vs. Utah Watson is in the Nuggets' starting lineup against the Jazz on Friday.
Impact With Jamal Murray (hamstring) sidelined, Watson will enter the Nuggets' starting five Friday while Russell Westbrook comes off the bench.

Career-best night in loss Watson had 24 points (8-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-8 FT), six rebounds and four blocks over 39 minutes during Monday's 129-119 loss to the Bulls.
Impact The 24 points were a career high for Watson, as he took advantage of absences from Nikola Jokic (ankle) and Aaron Gordon (calf). Watson's scored in double digits in four of the five games Jokic has missed so far, averaging 14.0 points, 4.6 boards, 2.2 blocks, 1.4 threes and 1.2 steals in 29.4 minutes over that span, but the third-year forward will see his numbers decline once the All-Star center is back on the court.

Impact With Aaron Gordon (calf/ankle) taking a seat on the second end of Denver's back-to-back, Watson will jump into the starting five Monday. Watson has averaged 11.8 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.4 blocks in 30.6 minutes over 14 games as a starter this season.
