Zeke Nnaji scored 10 points (3-3 FG, 2-2 3P, 2-2 FT) with a rebound, an assist, two steals, and three blocks in the Nuggets' 129-93 win over the Jazz.
Fantasy Impact: Nnaji arguably had his best game in March in the blowout win on Friday. He had a decent point total for his role and racked up defensive stats, with more combined stocks than any other Denver player. Still, he's an end-of-the-bench type of player and should be left on waivers.

Russell Westbrook III scored 17 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3P, 4-5 FT) with two rebounds, seven assists, and three steals in the Nuggets' 129-93 blowout win over the Utah Jazz on Friday.
Fantasy Impact: It didn't matter in this game, but the one area Westbrook just can't seem to fix is turnovers. He committed six against the Jazz and has averaged nearly four turnovers a game in March. He's still a valuable asset to the team as a backup point guard and should be thought of as much.

Michael Porter Jr. (back) is available to play in Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. (Source: Denver Nuggets on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: A back injury left Porter on the injury report heading into the day Friday, but he will be available to play through it against the Jazz. There's no reason to believe that he won't continue to be a strong fantasy option in this matchup and beyond.

Jamal Murray (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday night's game against the Utah Jazz. (Source: Denver Nuggets on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Murray will be sidelined on Friday night due to a hamstring injury. This is the first game that he will miss because of it, and his next chance to play will come on Tuesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Look for Christian Braun and Russell Westbrook III to see more work until then.

Aaron Gordon (calf/ankle) is active for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. (Source: Denver Nuggets on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Denver had a number of players listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game, but they will be near full health against the Nuggets. Gordon was among them due to a pair of injuries, but they aren't serious enough to leave him sidelined. It's possible that he will remain on a minutes limit, but fantasy managers shouldn't hesitate to start him regardless.

Christian Braun (foot) has been cleared to play in Friday's contest against the Utah Jazz. (Source: Denver Nuggets on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Denver has cleared Braun to play in Friday's game. His status was never in much doubt, although he was officially listed on the injury report heading into the day. He will see more involvement than usual with Jamal Murray (hamstring) out of the lineup for the Nuggets.

Nikola Jokic (ankle) will play in Friday night's game against the Utah Jazz. (Source: Denver Nuggets on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Jokic will suit up and play on Friday night. This was expected, as he was initially considered questionable to play heading into the day. He should continue to be one of, if not the, best players in basketball over the last couple weeks of the season.

DeAndre Jordan scored ten points (4-6 FG, 2-5 FT) to go with 17 rebounds and seven assists in Monday's 129-119 loss to the Chicago Bulls.
Fantasy Impact: Jordan slotted into the starting lineup on Monday in the absence of Nikola Jokic (ankle). He played his role well, falling just three assists shy of a triple-double paired with 17 rebounds and ten points. He will continue to be a serviceable fantasy option for however long Jokic remains out of the lineup for the Nuggets.

Peyton Watson put up 24 points (8-12 FG, 2-4 3PT, 6-8 FT) to go with six rebounds and four blocks in Monday's 129-119 loss to the Chicago Bulls.
Fantasy Impact: Aaron Gordon (calf/ankle) was sidelined for the Nuggets on Monday, but Watson was able to step up and deliver a fantastic performance in his absence. He finished with 24 points on great shooting splits, and he was also able to record an impressive four blocks and six rebounds to go with that. This was a good game for the 22-year old, but his fantasy value will take a hit whenever Gordon and Nikola Jokic (ankle) are back in the lineup for Denver.

Jalen Pickett scored 14 points (5-9 FG, 4-6 3PT) to go with five assists, four rebounds, and two blocks in Wednesday's 120-108 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers.
Fantasy Impact: Pickett saw more work than usual on Wednesday with Denver missing Jamal Murray (ankle) and Nikola Jokic (elbow/ankle). He was able to put up a nice performance as a result and finished with the most points out of anyone in the second unit while also contributing well in other areas of the game. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to produce like this consistently moving forward.

Vlatko Cancar (knee) has been removed from the injury report for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. (Source: NBA Injury Report)
Fantasy Impact: Cancar recently made his return to the lineup after missing a large chunk of the season due to a knee injury. He has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game and should be good to go moving forward. He doesn't see enough involvement to be fantasy relevant at this point, however.

Julian Strawther has suffered a knee sprain and will be evaluated again in four weeks. (Source: Ryan Blackburn on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Strawther will be sidelined into April. His absence won't make a huge difference on the Nuggets rotation for fantasy managers.
