Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (personal) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 29-year-old superstar, a three-time MVP, is at risk of missing his second consecutive contest due to personal reasons. If Jokic remains sidelined, Dario Saric could make another start, with Zeke Nnaji and DeAndre Jordan also stepping in to help fill the void. Jokic's absence would leave a significant gap for the Nuggets, as his elite playmaking and scoring are vital to the team's success.
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (personal) won't play in Friday's meeting with the New Orleans Pelicans. The multi-time MVP hasn't missed a game all season. But he welcomed the birth of his new child, so he'll get the night off. His next chance to suit up will be on Sunday in Memphis. However, as far as Friday's contest is concerned, Zeke Nnaji and DeAndre Jordan will presumably split time in the middle. Fantasy managers could also see Jamal Murray, Michael Porter Jr., and Christian Braun pick up a lot of the slack on the scoring end with Jokic off the floor.
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (personal) is officially listed as questionable due to personal reasons on Friday. The three-time MVP missed three games throughout last season and hasn't missed one yet this year, so his absences are very few and far between. If he's unable to make it onto the court against the New Orleans Pelicans, the rotation will likely receive a huge shakeup. De'Andre Jordan will get some minutes while Zeke Nnaji could see a lot more opportunities as well. The biggest increases in usage would go in favor of Jamal Murray, Michael Porter Jr., Christian Braun, and Peyton Watson.
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic stuffed the stat sheet but couldn't keep his team alive in Game 7 against the Timberwolves on Sunday. The 2023 champions blew a 15-point half-time lead to lose 98-90 despite Jokic posting 34 points, 19 rebounds, seven assists, and one block. After being voted the regular season MVP for the third time in his career, Jokic averaged 28.7 points, 13.4 rebounds, 8.7 assists, and 1.4 steals in the playoffs. With him having not even hit 30 years of age, the Jokic era in Denver has a long way to go, and he will continue to be an elite fantasy asset for quite some time.
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic was the only one on the team to score more than 12 points in a 45-point drubbing in Game 6. The three-time MVP put up 22 points, nine rebounds, two assists, and three turnovers while shooting 9-for-19 from the floor and 0-for-4 from deep. Jokic will likely bounce back, as will the Nuggets, while they go back home for a series-deciding Game 7. With how this series has gone so far, there aren't any promises just because the game is on their home court. Jokic remains a must-play in DFS as he's likely to provide some big points even if he has an off game.
