Jeff Green - Available Thursday Green (personal) has rejoined the team and will play Thursday against the Warriors, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Impact Green missed the first half of Denver's back-to-back set on Wednesday due to a personal matter, but he's back with the team and should be available for his usual workload against Golden State. He'll presumably rejoin the starting lineup as well. The veteran is averaging 10.4 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 24.7 minutes per game this season.

Will Barton - Won't play Thursday Barton (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Warriors, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Barton will miss a third consecutive game due to a sprained left ankle. As a result, Austin Rivers and Davon Reed could see extra minutes in Denver's backcourt. His next chance to return will be Saturday against the Raptors.

Will Barton - Questionable Thursday Barton (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against Golden State, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Impact Barton will have a chance to return after missing the last two games with a left ankle sprain. If he remains out, Austin Rivers, Bones Hyland (knee) and Bryn Forbes are candidates to see increased playing time.

Jeff Green - Questionable for Thursday night Green (personal) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Warriors, Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports reports.

Impact A personal matter kept Green out of Wednesday night's matchup against the Kings, and the Nuggets are unsure if he'll rejoin the team for the second half of the difficult road/home back-to-back set. In his last game Monday against Golden State, Green posted 18 points, five rebounds, one assist and one block in 32 minutes.

Bones Hyland - Listed as questionable Hyland (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Warriors, Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports reports.

Impact The rookie was withheld from Wednesday night's win over the Kings, and the Nuggets will give him a few more hours before making a final call on his status for the second leg of the back-to-back.

MARCH 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Zeke Nnaji - Listed questionable Nnaji (knees) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Warriors, Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports reports.

Impact Nnaji made his return from a multi-week absence Wednesday night against the Kings, seeing 20 minutes of action and finishing scoreless (0-1 FG) with four steals and one rebound. It's very possible the Nuggets could opt to hold him out on the second night of a back-to-back.

MARCH 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Aaron Gordon - Probable for Thursday Gordon is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Warriors due to a sore foot, Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports reports.

Impact Gordon is a new addition to the injury report, but it looks like he's expecting to be active as the Nuggets play their fourth game in five nights. Gordon finished Wednesday night's win over the Kings with 11 points, five boards, three assists and a block in 34 minutes.

Zeke Nnaji - Back in rotation Wednesday Nnaji (knees) logged 20 minutes off the bench Wednesday in the Nuggets' 106-100 win over the Kings, finishing with zero points (0-1 FG), four steals and one rebound.

Impact Before entering Wednesday's contest, Nnaji hadn't played since Feb. 11 due to bilateral knee soreness, though he had been cleared ahead of both of the Nuggets' previous two contests. With Jeff Green (personal) sitting out Wednesday, Nnaji finally received the chance to re-enter the rotation, but aside from the excellent steal total, he did little else during his time on the court to distinguish himself. Following the recent birth of his child, Green may remain away from the team for Thursday's game against the Warriors, but Nnaji's run in the rotation may come to an end soon thereafter.

MARCH 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Bryn Forbes - Contributes off bench Wednesday Forbes amassed 11 points (4-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt) and one rebound over 16 minutes during Wednesday's 106-100 victory over the Kings.

Impact Forbes has struggled with consistency, but there's no question his scoring ability and his three-point shooting can provide a lift to the Nuggets' second unit on any given game. He's scored in double digits in three of his last six outings.

MARCH 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Monte Morris - Puts up 20 points in win Morris had 20 points (8-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, four assists and two steals in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 106-100 win over the Kings.

Impact Morris ended as one of the leading scorers for the Nuggets, and the floor general has experienced an uptick in his scoring figures of late. He's recorded 10 or more points in four games in a row, but he's also cleared the 15-point plateau in each of his last three contests.

MARCH 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Nikola Jokic - Pulls down 18 boards Wednesday Jokic contributed 38 points (15-24 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 8-9 FT), 18 rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and one steal in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 106-100 victory over Sacramento.

Impact Jokic narrowly missed out on his fifth triple-double in six games, but the magnificent shooting from the field and free-throw line to go along with the contributions in the defensive categories more than made up for it. The Serbian big man is in the midst of an impressive follow-up season from his 2020-21 MVP campaign, and if not for Joel Embiid's night-in, night-out dominance in his own right, Jokic might be the frontrunner for the award again. The Nuggets will have home games coming up Thursday against the Warriors and Saturday against the Raptors before Jokic gets the chance to go head to head against Embiid in Philadelphia on Monday.

Davon Reed - Starting Wednesday Reed is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Kings.

Impact With Will Barton (ankle) still sidelined and Jeff Green out due to a personal matter, Reed will join the starting five for just the fourth time this season. The 26-year-old is averaging 4.3 points and 2.4 rebounds across 13.1 minutes per game.

MARCH 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Zeke Nnaji - Available Wednesday Nnaji (knees) is available for Wednesday's game against the Kings.

Impact Nnaji was cleared to return from a nine-game absence ahead of Monday's win over the Warriors, but he didn't receive any minutes. That could change Wednesday, especially with Jeff Green sidelined due to personal reasons. In 39 games this season, Nnaji has averaged 6.8 points and 3.7 rebounds over 16.7 minutes per game.

Jeff Green - Won't play Wednesday Green won't play in Wednesday's game against Sacrament due to personal reasons, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Impact The veteran is apparently dealing with a personal issue and won't play in the Nuggets' first game of a back-to-back. It'll be Green's first absence since Jan. 23 against Detroit. JaMychal Green will likely see an increased role with the 35-year-old sidelined.

Bones Hyland - Out Wednesday Hyland (knee) won't play Wednesday against the Kings, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Hyland's status was downgraded from probable to questionable ahead of Wednesday's tilt with the Kings, so it appears the right knee soreness he's dealing with stuck around longer than anticipated. He'll miss Wednesday's game as a result. With Will Barton (ankle) also sidelined, Austin Rivers, Bryn Forbes and Facundo Campazzo could see increased run in the Nuggets' backcourt.

MARCH 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Will Barton - Ruled out Wednesday Barton (ankle) won't play Wednesday against the Kings, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Barton will miss a second consecutive game as he continues to recover from a sprained left ankle. With Bones Hyland (knee) also ruled out, Austin Rivers and Bryn Forbes will likely see extra minutes in Denver's backcourt.
