Zeke Nnaji Latest News
Gets green light
Nnaji (adductor) is available for Sunday's matchup against the Grizzlies. Nnaji isn't expected to see heavy minutes, as the rest of Denver's usual rotation is healthy. Over his last four appearances, the backup center has averaged 2.8 points and 2.5 rebounds in 9.3 minutes per game.
Listed questionable for Sunday
Nnaji is questionable for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies due to right adductor tendinosis. Groin injuries tend to be quite complicated, and it remains to be seen if Nnaji will be able to feature in the regular season finale Sunday. Even if he's available, Nnaji should be an option off the bench in a best-case scenario.
Available against Spurs
Nnaji (thigh) is available against the Spurs on Friday. Nnaji has been getting the backup center minutes lately, averaging 3.7 points and 3.0 rebounds in 9.3 minutes per game over his last three outings.
Likely to play Friday
Nnaji (thigh) is probable for Friday's game against the Spurs. Although Nnaji continues to deal with right adductor tendinitis, he'll likely be able to suit up once again Friday. Over his last three appearances, he's averaged 3.7 points and 3.0 rebounds in 9.3 minutes per game.
Available Wednesday
Nnaji (thigh) will play in Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves. Nnaji was initially labeled probable with tendinitis in his right thigh, but he's been given the green light for Wednesday's contest. Nnaji is averaging 5.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.0 combined steals-plus-blocks across 13.0 minutes per game in his last two appearances.
Probable for Wednesday
Nnaji is probable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves due to right adductor tendinosis. Nnaji has been available for the past two matchups, averaging 5.5 points and 4.0 rebounds in 13.0 minutes per game. Although he continues to deal with his adductor injury, he'll likely be able to suit up Wednesday.
Grabs five boards in return
Nnaji (adductor) tallied five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one steal across 14 minutes in Saturday's 142-110 win over the Hawks. After missing eight straight games with a right adductor injury, Nnaji was upgraded to available ahead of Thursday's game against the Clippers, but head coach Michael Malone didn't turn to the big man off the bench in a narrow two-point win. With Saturday's game proving to be less closely contested, Malone inserted Nnaji back into the rotation as the backup center. Nnaji and Peyton Watson should both see light run at center moving forward whenever starter Nikola Jokic is off the court.
Available for Thursday
Nnaji (thigh) will be available to play Thursday against the Clippers. Nnaji hasn't played since March 17, so while he'll be available Thursday, he'll likely have his minutes monitored. He's not a great target in most formats with Nikola Jokic and Aaron Gordon healthy.
Upgraded to questionable
Nnaji (thigh) has been upgraded to questionable for Thursday's game against the Clippers. Nnaji was initially doubtful for Thursday's matchup, but he's trending in the right direction in the hours leading up to tipoff. However, his status shouldn't significantly impact the Nuggets' rotation, and the team will likely be cautious with his usage since he's missed the last eight games.
