Rotoworld Player News

Tyus Jones

DEN Guard #1

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that the Nuggets have signed Tyus Jones.

Jones, who was traded twice ahead of February’s deadline, was waived by the Mavericks on Saturday. Since he was waived ahead of the March 1 deadline, the veteran point guard will be eligible for the postseason. While he gives the Nuggets another ballhandler, Jones’ addition to the roster does not affect most fantasy leagues.
Cameron Johnson

DEN Forward #23

Cameron Johnson (ankle) and Spencer Jones (shoulder) are out for Monday’s matchup with the Jazz.

Denver will be shorthanded yet again, and the absences of Johnson and Jones should free up additional minutes for Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bruce Brown.
Peyton Watson

DEN Guard #8

Peyton Watson (hamstring) will be re-evaluated this week.

The Nuggets have been down two rotation players, Watson and Aaron Gordon, over the past month due to hamstring strains. Watson was injured during a February 4 loss to the Knicks and given a re-evaluation timeline of four weeks. According to ClutchPoints’ Brett Siegel, the hope is that Watson will be able to return within 7-10 days. Given how well he played before the injury, Watson may start once he’s no longer restricted, given Cameron Johnson’s struggles in his first season with the team.
Aaron Gordon

DEN Forward #32

Aaron Gordon (hamstring) will be re-evaluated this week.

Gordon aggravated his strained right hamstring during Denver’s January 23 win over the Bucks, and he was given a re-evaluation timeline of four to six weeks. According to ClutchPoints’ Brett Siegel, there’s hope that Gordon will be able to return to game action within the next seven to ten days. Once he’s able to play without restrictions, Gordon will likely bump Julian Strawther from the starting lineup, but that won’t happen during Denver’s three-game Week 19.
Cameron Johnson

DEN Forward #23

Cameron Johnson (ankle) finished Sunday’s loss to the Timberwolves with zero points (0-of-6 FGs), four rebounds and three assists.

Johnson, who was dealing with right ankle inflammation before Sunday’s game, logged 23 ineffective minutes before exiting during the third quarter and not returning. The veteran forward has struggled recently, and that was before the ankle became an issue. Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bruce Brown are likely to pick up additional minutes if Johnson has to miss time. Denver visits the Jazz on Monday, the first of three games they’ll play in Week 19.
Nikola Jokić

DEN Center #15

Nikola Jokić had 35 points (15-of-26 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), 13 rebounds, nine assists, one steal, two blocks and one three-pointer in Sunday’s loss to the Timberwolves.

Jokić continues his absolute dominance on the court despite the loss to the Timberwolves. The 31-year-old center had at least 30 points for the fourth time in his last five games while also recording at least 12 rebounds for the fifth time in his last six games. Jokić is the top player in per game value this season, according to Basketball Monster. The Nuggets have three games in the upcoming week, starting with a matchup against the Jazz on Monday.
Spencer Jones

DEN Forward #21

Spencer Jones (shoulder) is out for Sunday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Jones’ absence does not significantly affect fantasy basketball, as he logged two minutes in Friday’s loss to the Thunder.
Cameron Johnson

DEN Forward #23

Cameron Johnson (ankle) is available for Sunday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Johnson was initially probable for Sunday’s game, so the expectation was that he would be available. He’ll occupy his usual spot in the starting lineup, with the Nuggets hoping to get more production from the forward than they did in Friday’s loss to the Thunder.
Spencer Jones

DEN Forward #21

Spencer Jones (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Jones was also questionable ahead of Friday’s overtime loss to the Thunder, a game in which he only played two minutes. If the third-year forward is available for Sunday’s game, there’s no guarantee he gets the minutes needed to achieve some semblance of fantasy relevance. Leave Jones on the waiver wire.
Cameron Johnson

DEN Forward #23

Cameron Johnson (ankle) is probable for Sunday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Johnson, who struggled in Friday’s loss to the Thunder, is dealing with right ankle inflammation. His potential absence would not have a significant effect on fantasy basketball, but it would push Bruce Brown or Tim Hardaway Jr. into the starting lineup.
