Denver Nuggets forward Peyton Watson (head) is listed as probable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Watson was forced to exit early on Sunday due to a head contusion. However, it seems likely that Watson is going to play with him being listed as probable now. Watson hasn't been a great fantasy option lately, but he did have a decent stretch of games earlier in the month. His fantasy value is likely going to take a dip with Aaron Gordon healthy again.
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (calf) is listed as probable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was on the injury report this weekend due to a knee issue, but now he appears to have picked up a calf injury. The fact Murray is listed as probable means that he'll likely be able to play through the issue. If not, Russell Westbrook figures to move into the starting five and have increased fantasy value for Tuesday's slate.
Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (calf) is expected to play on Sunday against Orlando. He spent lengthy stints on the shelf twice this season because of a calf injury. As a result, head coach Mike Malone is taking things slow, with the 29-year-old logging 22 minutes or less in three appearances since returning to the lineup. Although Gordon hit the double-digit scoring mark in two of those games, he's hard to trust from a fantasy standpoint until he returns to the starting lineup and receives his pre-injury workload.
