Nikola Jokić's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (back, hip) is questionable for Monday's game against the Grizzlies. The Nuggets have a slight edge over the Timberwolves in the Western Conference standings, so the team can't afford to not have their top player on the floor. However, considering Memphis is one of the worst teams in the league, Jokic might get another night off. If that's the case, he'd likely return on Wednesday against Phoenix. But until the multi-time MVP is back on the floor, DeAndre Jordan, averaging 16.0 points, 10.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals, and 1.0 blocks in two starts this season, would be an ideal DFS value option.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against Portland. The team has downgraded him from a questionable status. Jokic sits out only his third game of the season. With backup center Zeke Nnaji (groin) also unavailable, we should see DeAndre Jordan moving to the starting unit, while Peyton Watson could be in for a busy night as a small-ball center. Denver is still expected to dominate the matchup, giving bench guys like Watson a chance to make a significant mark in the game.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (back, hip) is questionable for Saturday's game in Portland. The back injury isn't anything new. But the hip issue is somewhat concerning. However, the multi-time MVP has only missed two games this season, so Saturday's meeting with one of the worst teams in the NBA is a good time to get a night off. With Zeke Nnaji (back) already ruled out, DeAndre Jordan might get some action in the middle. Jordan has started just one game this season, finishing with 21 points, 13 rebounds, two steals, and one block. With production like that, he'll see more than his share of attention from DFS managers looking for a value opportunity.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (arm) is available for Saturday's meeting with the Utah Jazz. He has a right arm bruise, although it will take more than that to keep him off the floor. The multi-time MVP has averaged 19.0 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 7.2 assists in 30 games versus Utah throughout his career. While Jokic is a must-start in all fantasy formats, his matchup against Walker Kessler (foot), who will return from a four-game absence, isn't ideal for anyone.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (arm) is expected to play against the Utah Jazz on Saturday despite having an injury designation going into the game. Fantasy managers can expect him to take on his usual workload against the Jazz. In his most recent game against the Celtics, Jokic finished with his 20th triple-double of the season and 125th of his career. He scored 32 points, grabbed 12 rebounds, provided 11 assists, and secured two steals while shooting 11-for-19 from the floor and a perfect 10-for-10 from the free throw line.
