Aaron Gordon - Probable for MondayGordon is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Mavericks due to a right heel strain.
ImpactProbable tags have become the norm for Gordon as he continues to deal with a heel strain, so his name being listed on the injury report shouldn't be of much concern. Gordon has averaged 15.3 points, 7.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 29.5 minutes per game over his last four appearances.

Jamal Murray - Likely to play MondayMurray (ankle) is probable for Monday's game against Dallas.
ImpactMurray has been listed as probable in recent matchups due to bilateral ankle sprains, and that won't change for Monday's matchup. Over his last two appearances, he's averaged 15.5 points and 3.5 assists in 25.0 minutes per game.

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope - Questionable for MondayCaldwell-Pope (concussion) is questionable for Monday's game against the Mavericks.
ImpactCaldwell-Pope has missed the last two games due to a concussion, but it's encouraging that he's questionable for Monday's matchup rather than being immediately ruled out. If he's sidelined once again, Reggie Jackson, Christian Braun and Julian Strawther could continue to see increased run for the Nuggets.

Michael Porter Jr. - Records double-double in lossPorter accumulated 20 points (8-18 FG, 4-8 3Pt) and 11 rebounds across 32 minutes during Saturday's 118-117 loss to the Thunder.
ImpactPorter had a strong showing on both ends of the court and finished with his second double-double of the month, and this was the seventh time he accomplished that goal in the current campaign. Porter has been on a roll of late and has scored at least 17 points in four of his last six appearances.

Aaron Gordon - Sniffs double-doubleGordon provided 16 points (5-10 FG, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and two steals in 33 minutes during Saturday's 118-117 loss to the Thunder.
ImpactGordon was upgraded from questionable to available only a few minutes before tip-off, but the veteran power forward showed he was completely healthy by ending just one rebound shy of recording his sixth double-double of the campaign. Gordon holds a secondary role on offense when both Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray are available, but he continues to find ways to produce. Over his last 10 games, he's averaging 11.7 points, 7.5 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game.
DECEMBER 17, 2023•ROTOWIRE
Nikola Jokic - Strong outing against OKCJokic finished Saturday's 118-117 loss to the Thunder with 24 points (8-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six rebounds, 12 assists and two steals across 37 minutes.
ImpactJokic had to deal with the length of Chet Holmgren, which is no easy task for any center in the league, but the star big man still found a way to make a significant impact while recording his 12th game with double-digit assists this season. Jokic has been elite this season, and he is in line for another potentially productive matchup against the Mavericks and their depleted frontcourt.
