Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Drops 25 against Brooklyn
Murray ended Sunday's 108-102 win over the Nets with 25 points (9-19 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight assists and one rebound over 37 minutes.
Twenty of Murray's 25 points came in the first quarter, as the 26-year-old point guard issued a wakeup call to a Nuggets squad that had lost five of its last six. He's scored in double digits in 11 straight games, averaging 21.2 points, 7.1 assists, 3.5 boards, 3.5 threes and 1.3 steals over that stretch while shooting 41.3 percent from long distance.

Nuggets' Michael Porter: Pops for 28 in Sunday's win
Porter finished Sunday's 108-102 win over the Nets with 28 points (10-18 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds and three assists over 31 minutes.
It's his best scoring performance since he dropped 29 on the Clippers on Feb. 26. Porter's production has been a bit erratic in March -- he's scored 12 points or fewer three times this month -- but in nine games he's averaging 18.3 points, 5.2 boards, 2.9 threes and 1.4 assists while shooting 54.5 percent from the floor and 44.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Another triple-double Sunday
Jokic closed Sunday's 108-102 victory over Brooklyn with 22 points (9-12 FG, 4-4 FT), 17 rebounds, 10 assists and two steals in 36 minutes.
It's the 28th triple-double of the season for the perennial MVP candidate, snapping a streak of three straight games without one. Jokic hasn't gone more than four straight games without a triple-double all season. Since the calendar flipped to March, the 28-year-old center is averaging 25.4 points, 13.2 boards, 9.2 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 threes over nine contests while shooting 64.1 percent from the floor.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Returns from 17-game absence
Nnaji (shoulder) recorded four points (2-2 FG), five rebounds, one assist and one block across 12 minutes during Sunday's 108-102 victory over the Nets.
Sunday marked Nnaji's first action since Feb. 5, when he sustained a sprained shoulder. The Arizona product was eased back into the rotation and should be set for a slight uptick in minutes down the stretch as one of Denver's few trusted reserve big men behind Nikola Jokic. With Nnaji back in the mix, Thomas Bryant didn't leave the bench Sunday in a coach's decision.

Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Leads all scorers with 25 points
Murray provided 25 points (9-14 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Saturday's 116-110 loss to New York.
Murray scored an efficient 25 points in the loss, pacing all players in the scoring department. Despite dealing with some ongoing knee soreness, Murray has played in the past 12 games, exceeding 30 minutes in all but one. With that said, the Nuggets do play again Sunday against the Nets. There is certainly a chance Murray is given the night off, although with Denver having lost five of the past six games, a victory might take on more importance than usual.

Nuggets' Michael Porter: Ho-hum performance in loss
Porter closed with 11 points (4-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt) and five rebounds across 30 minutes during Saturday's 116-110 loss to the Knicks.
Porter played 30 minutes in the loss, but outside of his three triples, he offered basically nothing. On the whole, it's been a somewhat disappointing season for Porter, who is currently sitting outside the top 100 in nine-category leagues. He remains a must-roster talent, although his inability to expand his overall fantasy game is a little concerning. At this point, he should be looked at as a player who can help with points, rebounds and three-pointers only.

Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Modest performance Saturday
Brown contributed 11 points (3-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and six assists across 28 minutes during Saturday's 116-110 loss to the Knicks.
Brown was not terrible in the loss, yet he didn't really offer anything of note. He continues to play a consistent role off the bench for the Nuggets, to the point that he has forced Reggie Jackson from the rotation. While his ceiling is relatively low, Brown's floor is usually high enough to warrant a roster spot, even in competitive leagues.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Officially available
Nnaji (shoulder) will play in Saturday's game against the Knicks.
Nnaji will make his first appearance since Feb. 5 after dealing with a sprained right shoulder. Considering the lengthy absence, he will likely face a minutes restriction for the contest. Although it's unclear how much he will play, he could swipe some minutes away from Jeff Green, Vlatko Cancar and Thomas Bryant.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Expected to play Saturday
Nnaji (shoulder) is in line to play Saturday against the Knicks, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.
Nnaji has been sidelined since Feb. 5 with a sprained right shoulder but will be available to make a return to the hardwood. Nnaji saw at least 20 minutes of playing time in six of his last nine games leading up to the injury but will likely be under a heavy minutes restriction given the month-long absence. Regardless, his return could mean fewer minutes for Jeff Green, Vlatko Cancar and Thomas Bryant.
