Aaron Gordon

After enjoying a run of at least 15 points in three straight games, Watson's offensive production tailed off a bit ahead of Thursday's game. The fourth-year forward surpassed the 20-point mark for the third time this season, somewhat compensating for the lack of defensive production. Over the past month, Watson has been ranked just outside the top-100 in eight- and nine-cat formats. While the absences of Christian Braun and Aaron Gordon have freed up opportunities for Watson, he's still available in over 70 percent of Yahoo! leagues.

Gordon (hamstring) is not expected to return before Christmas, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

Jones left Wednesday's game against the Pacers with right knee soreness, but is available for Friday's game against the Hawks. The 24-year-old power forward should continue to provide solid streaming value with Aaron Gordon still sidelined.

Jones was forced to exit Wednesday's win over the Pacers with a sore right knee. Due to Aaron Gordon's absence, the second-year forward has been in the starting lineup, providing solid streaming value. If Jones can't play on Friday, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bruce Brown have the most to gain regarding playing time. Zeke Nnaji could also pick up a few more minutes, but Hardaway and Brown are the players to consider adding.

One game removed from scoring a career-high 28 points, Jones was limited to 17 minutes before exiting Wednesday's contest with a sore right knee. With Aaron Gordon already out, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bruce Brown took on more prominent roles within the Nuggets' rotation after Jones' exit. That will be the case if he can't play on Friday against the Hawks.
