Jokic, 3 other starters out for Nuggets at Timberwolves

Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic has been ruled out for their game at Minnesota because of left hamstring tightness

FEBRUARY 5, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Will sit Sunday Jokic (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Timberwolves.

Impact As expected, Jokic will take a seat for the second half of Denver's current back-to-back set to manage tightness in his left hamstring. The two-time MVP posted 14 points, 18 rebounds and 10 assists across 34 minutes Saturday and didn't appear to suffer an injury, so for now, his absence can likely be chalked up to rest. However, fantasy managers are still encouraged to monitor his status closely ahead of Tuesday's rematch versus Minnesota to ensure that's the case.

Likey to sit out Sunday Jokic is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves due to left hamstring tightness.

Impact Jokic is among four regular Nuggets starters that has been tagged as doubtful for the second half of the back-to-back set, so the two-time MVP's expected absence appears to be more for rest purposes than the result of any legitimate concern about his hamstring. Assuming Jokic ends up sitting, Zeke Nnaji would likely draw the start at center Sunday, while DeAndre Jordan could re-enter the rotation as Nnaji's backup.

Nabs third straight triple-double Jokic finished with 14 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 18 rebounds, 10 assists, two blocks and one steal across 34 minutes during Saturday's 128-108 win over the Hawks.

Impact Jokic took a back seat as a scorer while Jamal Murray led the scoring charge with a season-high 41 points, but the two-time MVP proved that he can continue to produce a crooked fantasy line even when he sacrifices some usage. In addition to getting triple-doubles in three straight games to bring his season averages to 24.8 points, 11.3 rebounds and 10.1 assists per contest, Jokic has also recorded at least one assist and one block in each of those three contests.

Questionable against Atlanta Jokic is questionable for Saturday's game versus the Hawks due to left hamstring tightness.

Impact Jokic continues to deal with tightness in his left hamstring despite playing the last three games. However, the Nuggets will play a back-to-back Saturday and Sunday, so the two-time MVP could certainly miss one of those contests. If Jokic doesn't suit up, Zeke Nnaji would likely start, and DeAndre Jordan could receive some run as well.

Leads way with triple-double Jokic notched 22 points (9-13 FG, 4-5 FT), 14 rebounds, 16 assists, one block and one steal over 33 minutes during Thursday's 134-117 victory over Golden State.

Impact Jokic took just 13 shots Thursday, right in line with what he had averaged over his previous three contests. Besides displaying efficiency by hitting nine of those tries, the big man did his usual work as a stat-sheet stuffer, leading all players in the contest in both assists and boards en route to his league-leading 17th triple-double of the campaign. Ten of those performances have come over his past 13 games, a span that has helped push Jokic back to being the No. 1 fantasy producer on the season.

Impact Jokic and Jamal Murray turned in brilliant stat lines to propel the Nuggets to victory Tuesday, and the perennial MVP candidate shows no signs of slowing down.
