Jalen Pickett: Breaking News

Posts double-digit scoring effort

Pickett posted 13 points (5-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds and four assists over 30 minutes during Friday's 127-107 victory over Oklahoma City. Despite the Nuggets resting their starters, Pickett couldn't re-enter the starting lineup for the first time since the 124-121 loss to Detroit on Feb. 3. However, the 26-year-old at least finished with his first double-digit scoring effort in months. With the playoffs right around the corner, Pickett might see increased action until the end of the regular season. Still, he isn't expected to have a stable role during the postseason, assuming everyone on the roster can stay off the injury report.

Sees limited run in loss

Pickett (knee) recorded four points (2-2 FG), three rebounds and two assists over six minutes during Sunday's 117-108 loss to the Timberwolves. After suffering a right knee injury during the Nuggets' Feb. 11 win over the Grizzlies, Pickett ended up missing the team's first two games coming out of the All-Star break. He was cleared to play in each of the subsequent three games, but was left out of the rotation. With Cameron Johnson (ankle) leaving Sunday's contest early, Pickett got the chance to play some minutes, albeit very few. Johnson is likely to miss the second leg of the back-to-back set Monday in Utah, but Pickett shouldn't be expected to see enough playing time to make for an appealing streaming option.

Available Friday

Pickett (knee) is available for Friday's game against Oklahoma City, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports. Pickett will shake off his questionable tag and return from a two-game absence due to right knee soreness. However, the 26-year-old guard isn't guaranteed to see meaningful playing time Friday.
