Bones Hyland - Will play Wednesday Hyland (illness) confirmed that he will be available to play in Wednesday's game against the Rockets, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.
Impact Hyland will return Wednesday after missing the past three games due to illness. Hyland's return should cut back on Bruce Brown, Vlatko Cancar and Ish Smith's playing time. The second-year guard is averaging 15.0 points, 3.6 assists and 2.1 rebounds in 21.5 minutes across 13 games this season.

Zeke Nnaji - Questionable Wednesday Nnaji is questionable to play in Wednesday's matchup with the Rockets due to a non-COVID illness.
Impact Nnaji is questionable to miss his first game since Nov. 9. If Nnaji can't play Wednesday, his next opportunity will be in Friday's game against Atlanta.

Bones Hyland - Questionable vs. Rockets Hyland (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.
Impact Hyland may be able to return following a three-game absence. If he does, Ish Smith, Vlatko Cancar and Bruce Brown could see reduced workloads.
NOVEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Michael Porter Jr. - Still out Wednesday Porter (heel) is out Wednesday against the Rockets.
Impact Porter will be sidelined for a fourth straight game due to a bruised left heel. On a positive note, Bones Hyland (illness) is questionable to return following a three-game absence. Porter's next chance to play is Friday at Atlanta.
NOVEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jamal Murray - Posts season-high scoring effort Murray accumulated 31 points (11-17 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal in 25 minutes during Monday's 129-113 victory over the Rockets.
Impact Murray was highly efficient on the evening, knocking down a season-high 11 shots from the field despite a regular shot volume. Given that fact, it doesn't seem likely Murray will repeat Monday's effort consistently, though he does have numerous 20-plus point outings so far. Murray hasn't quite been on the same fanasy level as his last full season in 2020-21, but he has plenty of time to make up some ground and is certainly worthy of being rostered.
NOVEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Aaron Gordon - Foul trouble limits minutes Gordon ended with four points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal over 14 minutes during Monday's 129-113 victory over the Rockets.
Impact Foul trouble and game script resulted in Gordon seeing only 14 minutes -- by far his fewest of the season. Prior to Monday's win, he had scored in double figures across six straight games, averaging 20.8 points, 8.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.0 blocks during that stretch. His role should normalize now that Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray are healthy again. Gordon is on pace for his best fantasy season since 2018-19, with the forward notably shooting 60.6 percent from the field and 38.3 percent from deep -- both of which are career marks.

DeAndre Jordan - Grabs 10 boards in win Jordan ended with eight points (4-5 FG), 10 rebounds and one assist over 19 minutes during Monday's 129-113 victory over the Rockets.
Impact Jordan saw extended run in the win as the Nuggets easily accounted for a young Rockets team. The playing time was all over the place in this one, affording a number of secondary pieces to thrive. While he can have streaming value on nights like this, his minutes are far too inconsistent to project, making him a risky option on most nights.

Jamal Murray's season-high 31 points overwhelm Rockets as Nuggets win third straight DENVER -- Jamal Murray got his swagger back.

Ish Smith - Vintage performance Monday Smith amassed 10 points (5-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five rebounds, eight assists, one block and two steals across 26 minutes during Monday's 129-113 victory over the Rockets.
Impact Smith came out of nowhere to deliver easily his best game of the season Monday. Having played in just six games prior to this effort, it's safe to say that managers did not see this coming. Before making any moves, we need to account for the fact this game was a blowout and the Nuggets were without a number of key pieces. This would need to be something he does for more than one game before people should sit up to take notice.
NOVEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope - Quiet in win Monday Caldwell-Pope registered eight points (3-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt), two assists and one block over 23 minutes during Monday's 129-113 victory over the Rockets.
Impact Caldwell-Pope stumbled again in the win, continuing what has been a downward trend over the past two weeks. During that time, he is well outside the top 150, thanks primarily to his steal numbers falling from 1.2 per game to 0.6. As a player with very little upside, Caldwell-Pope has no margin for error when it comes to overall fantasy value. He remains a 12-team option but could end up on waivers across a few leagues should his current trajectory continue.

Bones Hyland - Ruled out vs. Houston Hyland (illness) won't play Monday against the Rockets.
Impact Hyland was previously listed as doubtful due to an illness, so this latest update comes as no surprise. Christian Braun and Bruce Brown are candidates to see an increase in playing time with Hyland out of commission.
NOVEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Michael Porter Jr. - Out Monday Porter (heel) is out for Monday's contest against the Rockets,
Impact After being ruled as doubtful, Porter is officially out for Monday's contest against Houston. This will mark the 6-foot-10 forward's third straight missed contest. Porter's next chance to return comes Wednesday during a rematch against the Rockets.
NOVEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Michael Porter Jr. - Officially listed as doubtful Porter (heel) is officially listed as doubtful for Monday's matchup against Houston.
Impact Porter didn't practice Sunday and is now listed as doubtful, so it's appears highly unlikely that he'll be available Monday. If he's sidelined, it'd mark his third straight absence due to the heel injury and would leave plenty minutes available for the likes of Davon Reed and Vlatko Cancar.
NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Bones Hyland - Unlikely to play Monday Hyland (illness) did not participate in shootaround and is trending toward missing Monday's game against Houston, Brendan Vogt of The DNVR.com reports.
Impact Hyland has missed two consecutive games due to the illness and appears likely to miss a third given his absence in shootaround and limited practice Sunday. If he is ruled out, expect Bruce Brown and Ish Smith to pick up the majority of his vacated minutes.
NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Bones Hyland - Questionable for Monday Hyland (illness) has been listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Rockets.
Impact Hyland appeared in Sunday's practice, but he wasn't a full participant. The Nuggets will presumably reassess Hyland in Monday's morning shootaround before updating his status ahead of the 9 p.m. ET opening tip. The guard has missed the last two games due to a non-COVID-19-related illness.
