Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hamstring) is expected to play on Saturday in Philadelphia. The multi-time MVP has been in and out of the lineup of late because of hamstring tightness. However, he should be good to go after sitting out the team's recent game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday. Jokic is having another fantastic year, averaging 25.1 points, 11.0 rebounds, and a career-high 9.9 assists, so he remains a must-start, despite a tough matchup with Joel Embiid on tap.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hamstring) will not play Wednesday against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Nuggets are sitting most of their starters on the second leg of a back-to-back and Jokic just came back from a few game absence. There is no indication Jokic reaggravated his hamstring injury and is likely just getting a rest day. Zeke Nnaji figures to start while Aaron Gordon should see an increase in rebounding.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hamstring) has once again landed on the injury report and is considered questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Milwaukee. The reigning MVP is having trouble with his left hamstring, and he has already been forced to miss two of the last three games. Jokic was back from a two-game absence Tuesday versus New Orleans and posted his fourth consecutive triple-double. Zeke Nnaji made a couple of strong starts in Jokic's absence last week and should be a good streaming option for managers again Wednesday if Jokic can't play.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hamstring) is available to play Tuesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Jokic will make his return from a two-game absence due to hamstring tightness and should not have any major restrictions.

The Nuggets play again Wednesday so it remains to be seen if Denver wants to sit Jokic for the second night of a back-to-back set.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hamstring) is questionable to play Tuesday against the New Orleans Pelicans, but is now "trending towards probable," per head coach Michael Malone. Jokic continues to deal with some tightness in his hamstring, but he appears on track to play on Tuesday. If Jokic is available, Zeke Nnaji would move back to the bench and lose most, if not all, of his short-lived fantasy value.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hamstring) is listed as questionable to play Tuesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Jokic has missed two straight games with hamstring tightness and the Nuggets are entering a back-to-back set of games. Jokic has a chance to play in either, but the Nuggets could be cautious with their star center. Zeke Nnaji has been playing well as the starting center and would likely continue to start if Jokic remains out.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's meeting with OKC. The multi-time MVP didn't suit up for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers, allowing Zeke Nnaji to start and finish seven points, three rebounds, three steals, and one block. If Jokic misses another game, Nnaji has plenty of appeal for those looking to fill a void in their fantasy lineup.

The reigning MVP has posted three consecutive triple-doubles and the team is currently on an eight-game win streak. If he can't suit up, that's a big blow to the Nuggets' chances of winning as they're 2-2 so far in games that Jokic has missed. DeAndre Jordan would serve as a streaming option in deeper leagues if need be.

On the defensive end, he added two steals and one block to his tally in 35 minutes. There have now been 12 triple-doubles for Jokic this season and nine of them have come since the start of December.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (wrist) has been officially ruled out on Friday due to a right wrist issue. The injury doesn't seem to be serious as it's listed as injury management, so it sounds like more of a rest day. Either way, the Nuggets will have to fill his minutes with some sort of combination of DeAndre Jordan, Vlatko Cancar, and even Zeke Nnaji. Cancar would probably be the safest streaming option of the three since he's already getting some steady minutes.

He has some very juicy matchups coming up next week, as Denver prepares to face both of the L.A. sides and Orlando -- all three teams struggle to contain opposing bigs.

It was a fitting start to 2023 after Jokic had closed out 2022 by averaging a 30-point triple-double for December. It was an incredibly efficient performance as well from the Joker, with him hitting both of his attempts from deep and shooting 10-for-13 overall with an 8-for-8 record at the foul line. In 32 minutes on the floor, Jokic also grabbed one steal in the contest.

Five of Jokic's triple-doubles have come this month and he even finished December averaging a 30-point triple-double, so something must have ticked him off.

The 27-year-old collected his second 40-point outing over the last three games.

In 44 minutes of action, the Joker shot 16-for-25 from the field, including 2-for-4 from downtown, and 7-for-9 at the charity stripe. He also had one block while posting three turnovers.

At this point, this type of stat line isn't surprising coming from the two-time MVP. As long as he's on the floor, he's going to reward fantasy managers more often than not.
