Zeke Nnaji's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Denver Nuggets forward/center Zeke Nnaji (thigh) is doubtful for Thursday's matchup against the Clippers. Nnaji has suited up for only two of the last 10 games due to an ongoing issue with tendinitis on his right thigh. Denver only plays Nnaji 9.7 minutes per contest. But his absence opens more bench minutes for players like Peyton Watson, Justin Holiday, DeAndre Jordan, and Julian Strawther. The Nuggets starters will likely play their usual minutes since Nnaji is not a difference-maker in their rotation.

The 23-year-old rarely sees over 10 minutes in a game, and he is averaging 3.2 points per contest.
