Brown's goaltended layup in OT lifts short-handed Nuggets over 76ers 125-124

Bruce Brown scores 19 points, including the winning bucket in overtime, to lead the Denver Nuggets to a 125-124 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night
JANUARY 6 • Associated Press
Nuggets face impossible Peyton Watson decision no team should have to make The Denver Nuggets don't want to lose Peyton Watson, but there is a reason why they didn't extend him before the season.
JANUARY 5 • NUGGLOVE.COM
Stays hot with 23 points Watson supplied 23 points (8-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one block in 29 minutes during Sunday's 127-115 loss to Brooklyn.
Impact Watson is certainly heating up, with Sunday's performance being his third consecutive game with at least 20 points. The 23-year-old forward should continue to play big minutes in the Nuggets' starting lineup as long as Nikola Jokic (knee) is sidelined. For the campaign, Watson has averaged 14.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks in 31.1 minutes per contest across 23 games as a starter.

Scores team-high 24 points Watson closed with 24 points (9-19 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), eight rebounds and two steals in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 106-103 victory over the Raptors.
Impact Watson struggled from beyond the arc but still managed to finish as the Nuggets' leading scorer Wednesday, with 14 of his 24 points coming in the second quarter. It was his fifth time he 20-plus points in a game this season and his seventh multi-steal game.

Watson scores 24 points as Nuggets hold off Raptors to win 106-103 without the injured Jokic

Peyton Watson scored 24 points, Jamal Murray had 21 and the Denver Nuggets won their first game without injured center Nikola Jokic, beating the Toronto Raptors 106-103
JANUARY 1 • Associated Press
Scores 11 points Watson posted 11 points (4-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 32 minutes during Monday's 147-123 loss to Miami.
Impact Nikola Jokic left this game early and is expected to miss at least four weeks with a hyperextended left knee. The Nuggets are already thin in the frontcourt, and it's likely that Watson is asked to step up offensively. Additionally, his workloads should be even more secure in the short term.

Good to go vs. Dallas Watson (lower body) is available for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.
Impact Watson has been cleared to play in a second consecutive game while managing a right trunk contusion. The third-year forward has been a permanent member in the Nuggets' starting lineup since Nov. 15, and over his last 15 outings he has averaged 14.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.7 threes and 1.1 blocks over 30.1 minutes per game.
DECEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Probable for Tuesday Watson is probable for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks with a right trunk contusion.
Impact Watson was able to play through this injury Monday against the Jazz, finishing with 20 points (7-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 28 minutes. For now, the Nuggets expect him to push through the pain once again.

Strong performance in return Watson closed Monday's 135-112 victory over Utah with 20 points (7-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 28 minutes.
Impact Watson returned to action after missing the past two games due to a trunk injury. In what was clearly a favorable matchup, Watson delivered an efficient 20 points, continuing his breakout season. Both Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Christian Braun (ankle) remain sidelined, making Watson an intriguing addition to any standard league roster.

Getting green light Monday Watson (side) will play Monday against the Jazz.
Impact Watson will return to the hardwood Monday after missing two matchups with a side injury. He should slot into the starting five in his return, which will presumably bump Tim Hardaway back to a bench role.
DECEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Iffy for Monday Watson (side) is questionable for Monday's game against the Jazz.
Impact Watson, who has missed the past two games for Denver, remains day-to-day. Over his last 10 games, Watson has averaged 13.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.1 blocks in 28.7 minutes per contest.

Won't play Saturday Watson (side) won't play Saturday against the Rockets, Bennett Durando of The Denver Post reports.
Impact Watson will miss a second straight game Saturday, but the forward remains day-to-day. In his absence, guys like Bruce Brown, Tim Hardaway and Zeke Nnaji could absorb more minutes for Denver.

Chance to play Saturday Watson (side) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Rockets.
Impact Watson was unable to play against the Magic on Thursday due to a right trunk contusion, but he may limit his absence to one game if he's cleared to return Saturday. He was in the Nuggets' starting lineup in the 14 games prior to Thursday's contest, and over that span he averaged 14.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.6 threes and 1.1 blocks over 30.2 minutes per game.
DECEMBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Not playing Thursday Watson (side) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Orlando.
Impact Watson is dealing with a right trunk contusion, which will result in him missing his first game of the 2025-26 regular season Thursday. He has started in each of the Nuggets' last 14 games, so his absence opens the door for Tim Hardaway or Zeke Nnaji to enter Denver's starting lineup. Watson's next opportunity to play is Saturday against the Rockets.
