Denver Nuggets News and Rumors Page 70 - NBA | FOX Sports

Aaron Gordon - Questionable for Tuesday Gordon (foot) is questionable for Tuesday's game versus Utah.

Impact Gordon is at risk of missing his second consecutive game due to a right foot strain. Every game remains of relevance to Denver, as the team is tied atop the Western Conference standings with Minnesota, so Gordon's status will need to be monitored.

Michael Porter Jr. - Nursing knee issue Porter is probable for Tuesday's game against the Jazz due to right knee tendinopathy.

Impact This is a new ailment for Porter, who has also been battling an illness over the last few weeks. Even so, he's expected to suit up for Tuesday's clash.

Jamal Murray - On track for Tuesday Murray (right knee inflammation) is probable for Tuesday's game versus Utah.

Impact Murray is trending in the right direction to suit up for his second consecutive game after a seven-game absence due to knee inflammation. If he is ultimately able to take the court, he will face an exploitable Utah backcourt that will be lacking defensive ace Kris Dunn (foot).

Nikola Jokic - Back on injury report Jokic is probable for Tuesday's game against the Jazz due to left hip inflammation.

Impact Jokic is once again listed on the injury report with a hip injury, but it shouldn't force him to miss any time. Expect the team to confirm his availability closer to tipoff.

Zeke Nnaji - Grabs five boards in return Nnaji (adductor) tallied five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one steal across 14 minutes in Saturday's 142-110 win over the Hawks.

Impact After missing eight straight games with a right adductor injury, Nnaji was upgraded to available ahead of Thursday's game against the Clippers, but head coach Michael Malone didn't turn to the big man off the bench in a narrow two-point win. With Saturday's game proving to be less closely contested, Malone inserted Nnaji back into the rotation as the backup center. Nnaji and Peyton Watson should both see light run at center moving forward whenever starter Nikola Jokic is off the court.

Peyton Watson - Logs 13 points as bench empties Watson finished with 13 points (6-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists, five blocks and one steal across 27 minutes during Saturday's 142-110 victory over Atlanta.

Impact Watson will rarely post numbers this high, but the lopsided total gave him extra time Saturday evening. Aaron Gordon's (foot) injury also allowed for more time on the floor. The 2022 first-round pick has seen a sharp increase in all of his 2023-24 season averages, but the 21-year-old still sits far outside fantasy viability.

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope - Scores team-high 24 points in rout Caldwell-Pope closed with 24 points (9-12 FG, 6-9 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and two steals across 28 minutes during Saturday's 142-110 victory over Atlanta.

Impact Caldwell-Pope's 24 points were a season high, and he got there due to a season-high six three-pointers The veteran has logged 20-plus points in two of his last four games and has connected on 62.5 percent of his three-point shots over the last two contests.

Jamal Murray - Lifts team in return to action Murray accumulated 16 points (6-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one block over 21 minutes during Saturday's 142-110 victory over the Hawks.

Impact Although Murray's production wasn't needed in the blowout, his return to the starting lineup gave the Nuggets a significant morale boost. Improvements were noticeable all over the box score, and the team's floor general gets a lot of the credit. The team went 3-4 without Murray in the lineup, and his return will help immensely as they try to stay ahead of Minnesota and Oklahoma City.
