Jamir Watkins

Bagley and Tristan Vukcevic are both out on Thursday, which means the Wizards don't have a true backup center. Then again, it might not matter on Thursday since the Nuggets are also without their only two centers. Jamir Watkins could see minutes as the backup big man, and Khris Middleton could also spend extra time at power forward or as the big man in smaller lineups.
