Peyton Watson - Chips in seven points Watson supplied seven points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and two rebounds over 20 minutes during Tuesday's 144-139 overtime victory over Brooklyn.
Impact Watson logged a season-high 20 minutes of action Tuesday. A stellar defender, Watson incrementally improving his offensive game will be something to monitor throughout Denver's season.

Julian Strawther - Minor impact in win Strawther racked up seven points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds and one steal over 22 minutes during Tuesday's 144-139 overtime victory over the Nets.

Russell Westbrook - Efficient effort in OT win Westbrook totaled 22 points (5-12 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 10-10 FT), one rebound, five assists and one steal over 21 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 144-139 overtime victory over the N...
Impact After failing to score in double digits during his first three games with Denver, Westbrook broke out Tuesday by drawing plenty of contact and converting at the free-throw line. The 35-year-old guard averaged a career-low 11.1 points a game with the Clippers in 2023-24 and likely won't be a consistent offensive threat at this stage of his career, but he can still deliver occasional upside from the Nuggets' second unit.

Aaron Gordon - Drops 24 on Nets Gordon ended Tuesday's 144-139 overtime victory over Brooklyn with 24 points (8-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one block across 33 minutes.
Impact It's the best scoring performance of the season so far for Gordon, who appears to have put in some work on his shooting during the offseason. After sagging to 29.0 percent shooting from three-point range and 65.8 percent at the free-throw line in 2023-24, The veteran forward has come out of the gates firing this season by shooting 40.0 percent (4-for-10) from beyond the arc and 85.7 percent (18-for-21) from the charity stripe. While the samples are small, any improvement from Gordon in those areas would go a long toward bolstering the Nuggets' offense behind Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray.

Jamal Murray - Hits for 24 in Tuesday's OT win Murray racked up 24 points (8-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 6-8 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 37 minutes during Tuesday's 144-139 overtime victory over the Nets.
Impact Despite a minor ankle injury he seemingly picked up Monday against the Raptors, Murray produced a season-high 24 points and saw his usual workload. The veteran point guard is still struggling to find his offense, shooting just 37.3 percent from the floor and 33.3 percent from three-point range through four games, but his usage gives him a high fantasy floor even when he's not locked in with his shot.
