Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: With first unit Wednesday
Nnaji is part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Nnaji will fill in for the injured Aaron Gordon (calf) on Wednesday, marking the 23-year-old's second start of the campaign. In his only other start, Nnaji played 31 minutes, totaling 12 points, five rebounds and a block.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Productive off bench
Nnaji recorded 11 points (4-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal in 19 minutes during Monday's 146-117 victory over Portland.
Nnaji was able to take advantage of some garbage time in the lopsided win, as he put up a season-high three assists in the process. He's been trending up in February, posting averages of 6.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, 0.7 assists and 1.3 blocks in 20.5 minutes per contest over his last six outings.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Back to bench Wednesday
Nnaji is coming off the bench in Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.
With Aaron Gordon returning from a calf injury Wednesday, Nnaji will revert back to Denver's bench following a spot start Monday against New Orleans. Nnaji has averaged 1.4 points, 0.6 rebounds and 0.3 blocks in 5.1 minutes over 28 games off the bench this season.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Notches 12 points in win
Nnaji produced 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five rebounds and one block across 31 minutes during Monday's 125-113 victory over the Pelicans.
Aaron Gordon (calf), Russell Westbrook (hamstring) and Peyton Watson (knee) were all sidelined, so Nnaji was given his first start since the 2022-23 season. Nnaji has been used sparingly this season for an average of 6.0 minutes over 29 appearances, but he made the most of his minutes Monday. He'll be a name to monitor ahead of the trade deadline, as he's been in the rumor mill quite a bit.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Starting Monday vs. NOLA
Nnaji is in the Nuggets' starting lineup against the Pelicans on Monday.
Nnaji will make his first regular-season start since the 2022-23 campaign due to the absences of Aaron Gordon (calf) and Peyton Watson (knee). Nnaji played a season-high 22 minutes in Saturday's 107-104 win over the Nuggets and finished with six points, three rebounds, five blocks and one steal.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Plays season-high 22 minutes
Nnaji notched six points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, five blocks and one steal across 22 minutes during Saturday's 107-104 win over the Hornets.
Nnaji logged a season-high 22 minutes, taking advantage of the fact the Nuggets were without a number of regular rotation pieces. The six points also marked a season-high, highlighting what a struggle it has been for Nnaji when it comes to playing regular minutes.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Plays five minutes in loss
Nnaji notched two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound across five minutes during Saturday's 133-104 loss to the Timberwolves.
Nnaji continues to be used sparingly off the bench, having played more than six minutes on only four occasions this season. Although he has seen the court in six of the past seven games, his minutes have come exclusively during garbage time. Barring injuries to multiple other players, it's hard to see his role increasing.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Increased playing time in win
Nnaji posted two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one block across 14 minutes during Monday's 121-119 win over the Raptors.
Aaron Gordon suffered a calf injury that is set to sideline him for multiple weeks during Monday's win. This should open up playing time for Nnaji, who logged a season-high 14 minutes against Toronto. Still, Nnaji's production doesn't suggest that he is worthy of significant fantasy consideration.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Moves back to bench Thursday
Nnaji is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.
Nnaji won't be in the starting unit for the preseason finale since the Nuggets will run with their regular first unit, which includes Nikola Jokic and Aaron Gordon in the frontcourt. Nnaji is expected to be a bench option for Denver and is vying with Dario Saric to earn the backup role at center behind Jokic.
