Nnaji amassed seven points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and three blocks over 13 minutes during Monday's 129-119 loss to the Bulls. With Nikola Jokic (ankle) still sidelined, Nnaji hasn't been able to take advantage of his absence. Instead, DeAndre Jordan has started two games in a row and has looked really good with the first unit. For now, Nnaji is only on the radar in deeper formats.

Career History


Zeke Nnaji Latest News
Sees just 13 minutes

Nnaji amassed seven points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and three blocks over 13 minutes during Monday's 129-119 loss to the Bulls. With Nikola Jokic (ankle) still sidelined, Nnaji hasn't been able to take advantage of his absence. Instead, DeAndre Jordan has started two games in a row and has looked really good with the first unit. For now, Nnaji is only on the radar in deeper formats.
Cleared to play Friday

Nnaji (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Lakers. Nnaji will play through an ankle injury Friday, although his fantasy value will remain capped by the presence of Nikola Jokic (elbow). Over his last 11 games, Nnaji has averaged 4.5 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 15.2 minutes.
Likely to play Friday

Nnaji (ankle) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Lakers. Nnaji has been a mainstay on the injury report of late due to a left ankle sprain, though he hasn't missed a game since Jan. 31. The 24-year-old has averaged 3.8 points and 2.2 rebounds across 15.2 minutes per game in his last five appearances. Nnaji could receive an uptick in playing time if Aaron Gordon (calf) misses his third consecutive contest.
Good to go against OKC

Nnaji (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Thunder. Nnaji has been on the Nuggets' injury report as of late due to a left ankle sprain, but he's been cleared to play Monday. He has averaged 5.6 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.1 blocks over 16.3 minutes per game since the All-Star break.
Expected to play

Nnaji is probable to play Monday against the Thunder with a left ankle sprain. Aaron Gordon has already been ruled out with an ankle issue, so Nnaji could see extended minutes if he's able to shake off this probable tag. Over his last 10 games, Nnaji has produced 6.6 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in 18.4 minutes per contest.
Available Friday

Nnaji (ankle) has been upgraded to available for Friday's game against the Suns. Nnaji was initially listed as probable for this game, but he should handle his regular workload in this contest. That said, with Aaron Gordon (ankle) back in the rotation, Nnaji's minutes should decrease considerably, so he's not likely to have a lot of fantasy upside.
Listed probable for Friday

Nnaji is probable for Friday's game against the Suns due to a left ankle sprain. Nnaji logged 19 minutes in the win over the Kings on Wednesday, notching 10 points, three rebounds, a steal and three blocks. The probable tag suggests he should play and handle his regular workload, though even in this scenario, he shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy upside.
Cleared to play Wednesday

Nnaji (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Kings, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports. Nnaji has been on the Nuggets' injury report for the past couple of games due to a left ankle sprain, but the injury isn't severe enough for him to be sidelined for Wednesday's Western Conference clash. Nnaji has averaged 6.7 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.4 blocks and 0.9 steals over 19.4 minutes per game since the beginning of February.
Questionable for Wednesday

Nnaji (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Kings. Nnaji was also listed as questionable for Denver's previous contest due to a left ankle sprain before being upgraded to available. However, if Nnaji is unable to suit up against Sacramento, Dario Saric and DeAndre Jordan are candidates to receive increased playing time.
