  • Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Offensive explosion Tuesday

    Brown contributed 25 points (7-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 9-10 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 118-102 victory over the Suns in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

    Brown let his offense do the talking Tuesday, turning in his best scoring game of the playoffs thus far. His output helped the Nuggets record a comfortable victory, moving them within one game of reaching the Western Conference Finals. This performance really highlighted the difference between the two teams when it comes to depth. Game 6 will be in Phoenix on Thursday, and although it is not technically a must-win game for the Nuggets, you can be assured they will be doing everything in their power to avoid a Game 7.

  • Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Sharp in win

    Brown racked up 14 points (7-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and three steals across 25 minutes during Saturday's 125-107 win over the Suns in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

    Brown finished with a stellar plus-21 net rating fueled by strong two-way play. Brown is averaging 11.8 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.5 steals in 26.5 minutes through Denver's first six playoff contests.

  • Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Strong two-way effort Friday

    Brown ended with 12 points (6-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 24 minutes during Friday's 120-111 win over the Timberwolves in Game 3 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

    Brown provided the Nuggets with another well-rounded performance Friday, something he has been able to do all season long. While his contributions often go unnoticed, Brown has certainly been one of the more savvy additions this season. His ability to defend multiple positions, play as a makeshift ball-handler and score efficiently means he can typically be utilized in any number of situations.

  • Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Moves back to bench

    Brown isn't starting Game 1 of the Western Conference First Round against Minnesota on Sunday, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

    Brown started two of the Nuggets' final three regular-season games due to other players resting, but he'll be on the bench for the start of the playoffs. However, he should still have a chance to see his fair share of playing time after averaging 25.8 minutes per game over 49 appearances off the bench this season.

  • Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Listed as questionable for Sunday

    Brown (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Kings.

    Brown was sidelined for Saturday's loss to Utah, marking his first absence since Dec. 28, and is in danger of missing back-to-back contests for the first time this season. However, with Denver locked into the No. 1 seed, Brown's potential absence would presumably be precautionary.

  • Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Scores season-high 31 points

    Brown finished Thursday's 119-115 loss to Phoenix with 31 points (11-18 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 9-9 FT), six rebounds and four assists over 38 minutes.

    Brown was tremendous in the narrow loss, leading all scorers with 31 points. While he was quiet on the defensive end, managers have to be thrilled with what he was able to put up on offense. The Nuggets have secured the top seed in the West, meaning Brown could see additional run again before the season is done.

  • Nuggets' Bruce Brown: With first unit

    Brown will start Thursday at Phoenix.

    Brown will enter an entirely new Nuggets starting lineup, with all five normal starters in street clothes for the contest. Brown could command a massive usage rate given how shorthanded Denver is and should be targeted as a streamer.

  • Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Three swipes in loss

    Brown ended with 16 points (7-18 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and three steals across 37 minutes during Friday's 100-93 loss to Phoenix.

    With Denver resting nearly its entire starting five, Brown drew his first start since Feb. 15 and tied his second-highest steals total of the season with three. Despite the overall poor shooting, Brown still scored in double figures for a fifth straight game, averaging 15.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks in 30.4 minutes during that stretch.

    Brown finished second on the team in points and notched his highest-scoring total since Jan. 1, but the Nuggets struggled to find any consistency with Nikola Jokic (rest/calf) sidelined. After a slow start to the month, Brown has picked up his play of late, posting 15.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.0 blocks with 53/36/72 shooting splits over his past four appearances.
