Nuggets depth chart
The Denver Nuggets' published depth chart at all five spots, the injury report, who played how many minutes last game, and our projected rotation for the next one.
The Denver Nuggets list 17 players across the five spots on the league's own depth chart, last changed Sep 30. First choice at each: Jamal Murray at point guard, Christian Braun at shooting guard, Cameron Johnson at small forward, Aaron Gordon at power forward and Nikola Jokic at center. It is an ordering, not a minutes projection — a club can list five point guards and play two.
2 on the injury report. Out: Julian Strawther. Day-to-day: Spencer Jones.
Last game, at the Lakers on Fri, Oct 16 (W 121-106), a preseason game: 11 players got on the floor. Nikola Jokic 31, Jamal Murray 31 and Christian Braun 28 led the minutes. 10 dressed or listed and did not play.
Next up: at the Grizzlies, Sun, Jan 25 at 3:30 PM ET. The projected rotation lands here once the model has priced the game, usually the morning of.
