Nikola Jokic - Throttles Magic in win Jokic compiled 26 points (10-26 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 15 rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 35 minutes in Monday's 121-111 win over the Magic.

Impact With seven consecutive games of at least 20 points, 10 rebounds and five assists, Jokic joins Larry Bird, Michael Jordan and Kevin Durant as the only players in NBA history to accomplish that feat. Though Joel Embiid remains the betting favorite for the league MVP award, Jokic has submitted an impressive follow up to his 2020-21 MVP campaign. Through 51 games, he's averaging 25.8 points, a career-high 13.7 boards, 7.9 assists, 1.6 three-pointers, 1.4 steals and 0.7 blocks while shooting 57 percent from the field and 81.3 percent from the charity stripe.

Bryn Forbes - Lands three triples in win Forbes logged 16 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and two assists across 20 minutes during Monday's 121-111 victory over Orlando.

Impact Forbes played his role to perfection in the win, coming off the bench with 16 points in 20 minutes. The Nuggets acquired him to provide them with another scoring punch as they look to push higher in the standings. While this was an encouraging performance, it does not move the needle all too much, especially when it comes to standard fantasy formats.

Bones Hyland - Offensive skills on display Monday Hyland supplied 14 points (4-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Monday's 121-111 win over the Magic.

Impact Hyland had another productive night, continuing the best stretch of games in his young career. He has played at least 25 minutes in three of the past four games, averaging 14.3 points per game over the same span. At this point, he should be viewed as a possible streaming option for anyone in need of some points and triples, but fantasy managers should keep an eye on his role moving forward given what we have seen thus far this season.

Will Barton - Pops for 17 points in win Barton had 17 points (6-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds and one block in 33 minutes during Monday's 121-111 victory over the Magic.

Impact Barton continues to score the ball with regularity, putting up double-digits for the 12th straight game. Despite a few stumbles, Barton is putting together a solid fantasy season, providing his usual allotment of points, as well as a varied assortment of counting stats. His overall value is somewhat limited, but he is a reliable mid-round fantasy asset.

Zeke Nnaji - Unavailable Monday Nnaji (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Magic, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Nnaji will miss his second consecutive matchup due to left hamstring soreness. Look for JaMychal Green, Jeff Green and Davon Reed to once again pick up extra minutes in Nnaji's absence.

Monte Morris - Won't go Monday Morris (concussion) won't play in Monday's game against Orlando, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Morris was thought to have a chance to return in time for Monday's matchup after being tagged as questionable, but he's failed to gain clearance. Expect Bones Hyland to draw another start at point guard as a result.

FEBRUARY 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Jamal Murray - Could be cleared by season's end Murray (knee) is expected to receive physical clearance to return to game action before the end of the regular season, a source familiar with his rehab program tells Mike Singer of...

Impact Murray, who recently overcame a bout with COVID-19, has been sidelined all season while recovering from surgery to address a torn ACL in his left knee. Though he sustained the injury in mid-April of 2021 before undergoing surgery soon after, the Nuggets apparently have optimism that the 24-year-old will make his way back into the lineup in less than a full year. In his report, Singer notes that Murray's rehab process has been more difficult from a mental standpoint than a physical one, as he's never contended with a major injury at any point in his career. As such, Denver likely won't push Murray to get back on the court until he's fully comfortable, even if doctors give him the green light beforehand. Since Murray's recovery timeline is still fairly nebulous, he can't be counted on to be back for the fantasy playoffs in most head-to-head leagues.

Monte Morris - May return Monday Morris (concussion) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup with the Magic.

Impact Morris has missed back-to-back contests due to a concussion, but he has a chance to return Monday. If he's sidelined again, Bones Hyland and Facundo Campazzo will handle the point guard duties.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Zeke Nnaji - Questionable Monday Nnaji (hamstring) is questionable for Monday's game against Orlando.

Impact Nnaji sat out Saturday's game against the Raptors but will have a chance to return Monday. If he's unavailable once again, Davon Reed, Jeff Green and JaMychal Green should see increased run.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Bones Hyland - Scores in double figures Hyland provided 11 points (4-11 FG, 3-9 3Pt), four rebounds and four assists over 24 minutes during Saturday's 110-109 win over the Raptors.

Impact Hyland drew a second consecutive start with Monte Morris (concussion) sidelined. Over those two games, the rookie has totaled 21 points, six rebounds and four assists across 42 minutes. While Hyland has drawn back-to-back starts, Facundo Campazzo has also seen an increased role off the bench and has nearly matched Hyland's production as the starter. Both Hyland and Campazzo figure to see increased roles for the duration of Morris' absence, but it's unclear who has the upper hand in terms of fantasy production.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Nikola Jokic - Another dominating performance Jokic racked up 28 points (10-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 8-10 FT), 15 rebounds, six assists and two blocks in 35 minutes during Saturday's 110-109 victory over the Raptors.

Impact Jokic was efficient from the field en route to his highest scoring outing since Jan. 28. He also grabbed at least 15 rebounds and blocked two shots for a second consecutive game. In February, the reigning MVP has recorded a double-double in all six games and a triple-double in two of those contests. During that stretch, he's averaged 24.2 points, 13.7 rebounds and 8.5 assists in 32.3 minutes per game. Jokic will look to continue his dominance Monday against the Magic.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Facundo Campazzo - Plays 20 minutes off bench again Campazzo had six points (2-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and three steals in 23 minutes during Saturday's 110-109 win over the Raptors.

Impact With Monte Morris (concussion) sidelined again, Campazzo played 20-plus minutes for a second straight game. Over his last two contests, the 5-foot-10 point guard has totaled 20 points, seven rebounds, six assists, four steals and one block. As long as Morris remains sidelined, expect Campazzo to continue to garner a sizable role off the bench.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Jeff Green - Solid performance in win Green chipped in 19 points (6-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and five assists over 31 minutes during Saturday's 110-109 win over Toronto.

Impact Green scored in double figures for the first time over his last three contests and dished out a season-high five assists during the win. Zeke Nnaji (hamstring) was sidelined for the contest, which paved the way for Green to play his most minutes (31) since Jan. 21. Over his last seven games, he's averaged 9.9 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 21.6 minutes.
