Christian Braun News, Rumors, Updates - Denver Nuggets

Perfect from field to lead bench Braun ended with 13 points (5-5 FG, 3-3 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one block over 17 minutes in Saturday's 142-121 win over Utah.

Impact Braun led all Nuggets bench players in scoring and threes made while shooting a perfect mark from deep and from the field over 17 minutes until he fouled out of Saturday's contest. Saturday marked the first time of the year where Braun finished with a perfect shooting mark when attempting five or more shots and was his ninth time of the season with 13 or more points.

Moves back to bench Braun isn't in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Suns.

Steps into starting role Braun is in the starting lineup to face the Lakers on Saturday.

Impact Braun will start at shooting guard due to the absence of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (personal). This will be Braun's first start of the season, and seventh of his NBA career. He's averaging 6.9 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game in 60 appearances off the bench in 2023-24.

Fails to step up Braun produced seven points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and two steals in 22 minutes during Monday's 112-95 loss to the Bucks.

Impact Braun did not deliver any offensive punch despite Jamal Murray (leg) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) being ruled out in the second half. He is averaging 7.0 points and 3.5 rebounds and 18.9 minutes per game this season.

Pops for 10 points in loss Braun contributed 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five rebounds and one steal over 16 minutes during Wednesday's 105-100 loss to Oklahoma City.

Impact Braun scored double-digits for the first time in more than two weeks, continuing his lean spell of late. He has played fewer than 20 minutes in 10 of the past 11 games, failing to take his performances to the next level. He is now outside the top 300 for the season and can be safely left on waiver wires in all competitive leagues.

Good to go Braun (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

Impact As expected, Braun has been upgraded from probable to available. He's yet to miss a game this season, averaging 5.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.2 steals-plus-blocks in 18.8 minutes over his last six appearances.

Probable against Pacers Braun is probable against the Pacers on Sunday due to a left ankle sprain.

Impact Braun has yet to miss a game this season and it doesn't appear that his ankle issue is serious enough to mess up that trend. Braun is averaging 5.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.2 turnovers in 18.8 minutes across six January appearances.

Scores in double figures Braun provided 11 points (4-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal over 23 minutes during Thursday's 142-105 win over Memphis.

Impact Braun saw an uptick in playing time during Thursday's blowout victory and contributed in multiple areas. He matched his second-highest assist total of the season while also scoring in double figures for the second time in his last three appearances. The 22-year-old has been an inconsistent contributor this month, averaging 7.9 points and 2.9 rebounds in 18.4 minutes per game in December.

Limited to 11 minutes Braun produced six points (2-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 0-2 FT) and one assist over 11 minutes during Monday's 120-114 victory over Golden State.

Impact Braun had six points in 11 minutes, the fourth time in the past five games that he has scored fewer than seven points. While he has had some encouraging moments thus far, his season as a while has been disappointing. He is the 261st-ranked player in nine-category leagues, leaving him well off the radar outside of very deep formats.

Scores in double figures again Braun provided 10 points (4-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 24 minutes during Thursday's 124-101 victory over Brooklyn.

Impact Braun has had a limited impact on the scoreboard in recent weeks, but he scored in double figures for a second consecutive matchup Thursday. He also made an impact on the defensive end with a season-high two blocks. Over seven appearances in December, the 22-year-old has averaged 8.3 points and 3.0 rebounds in 18.1 minutes per game.

Disappoints in loss Friday Braun ended Friday's 114-106 loss to the Rockets with two points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 14 minutes.

Impact Braun managed just two points in 14 minutes, the fewest he has scored in almost two weeks. He has played fewer than 20 minutes in five of the past six games, struggling to maintain a consistent role. It is unclear what his exact role is moving forward, and the improved play of Peyton Watson only complicates matters. At this point, Braun does not need to be rostered outside of deeper formats.

Continues strong play off bench Braun closed with 15 points (5-10 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 32 minutes during Monday's 107-103 victory over Detroit.

Impact Braun has continued to provide a spark off Denver's bench, leading all bench players in Monday's contest in scoring and rebounds while finishing as one of three Nuggets with 15 or more points. Braun has reached double figures off the bench in four straight games, tallying at least 15 points in two of those outings.

Plays well Sunday Braun posted 13 points (6-11 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and two rebounds across 25 minutes during Sunday's 121-109 loss to Cleveland.

Impact Braun is starting to trend up in fantasy basketball, as he's been asked to play a larger role in the absence of Jamal Murray (hamstring). Over the last three games, Braun is averaging 16.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 three-pointers.

Impact As expected, Braun will play Saturday after receiving a probable tag for the second straight game due to a right shin strain. He should see decent minutes off the bench once again.
