Denver Nuggets center
Zeke Nnaji (ankle) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. As expected, Nnaji will suit up for this game after being listed as probable coming into it. Nnaji was dealing with a minor ankle issue, but it doesn't appear to be something that is going to stop him from playing. However, Nnaji is unlikely to have a big role in that role with
Nikola Jokic and
Aaron Gordon both healthy and active on Friday. Nnaji will probably play minutes in the teens, which normally doesn't offer much fantasy value.

Denver Nuggets center
Zeke Nnaji (ankle) is listed as probable ahead of Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The 24-year-old is dealing with a minor ankle injury that shouldn't sideline him for this contest. His playing time has been inconsistent lately, but he could see a bigger role if
Aaron Gordon (ankle) or
Nikola Jokic (ankle) are unable to play on Friday. Nnaji is really only worth a look as a streaming option if Gordon or Jokic are unable to play.

Denver Nuggets forward
Zeke Nnaji (ankle) was listed as questionable due to a left ankle sprain for Wednesday's game against the Kings, but coach Mike Malone said he will be active.
Nikola Jokic (ankle) and
Aaron Gordon (ankle) remain game-time decisions, but Nnaji will be available and able to fill in if needed. The 24-year-old has averaged 7.3 points in 18.4 minutes per game over his last eight contests, but his role could be threatened by the return of
Peyton Watson (knee) from his extended absence. Keep a close eye on how the minutes are split up in the Nuggets' second unit as the pieces get healthy for the stretch run.

Denver Nuggets forward/center
Zeke Nnaji (thigh) is doubtful for Thursday's matchup against the Clippers. Nnaji has suited up for only two of the last 10 games due to an ongoing issue with tendinitis on his right thigh. Denver only plays Nnaji 9.7 minutes per contest. But his absence opens more bench minutes for players like
Peyton Watson,
Justin Holiday,
DeAndre Jordan, and
Julian Strawther. The Nuggets starters will likely play their usual minutes since Nnaji is not a difference-maker in their rotation.
