Kentavious Caldwell-Pope News
Denver Nuggets guards Jamal Murray (knee) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (wrist) will sit out Wednesday against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Nuggets are sitting most of their starters Wednesday as they are in the second night of a back-to-back set of games. Both Murray and Caldwell-Pope are likely getting the day off and have not experienced any setbacks in their respective injuries. Bruce Brown, Christian Braun and Bones Hyland should all see increased minutes on Wednesday.
Denver Nuggets guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (wrist) is officially questionable for the team's contest on Tuesday night with a wrist sprain. So far this season, he's been a good fill-in while others are hurt and for those that are in deeper leagues. For a starter, he hasn't produced as much as expected though. If he ends up staying on the sidelines, Ish Smith and Bones Hyland will likely see the extra playing time. Both of them would also serve as solid streaming options in deeper leagues.
Denver Nuggets guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle) is out for Friday's meeting with the Utah Jazz. KCP has had a fanatic season, averaging 11.8 points, 3.8 boards, 3.0 assists, and 1.2 steals while shooting 50.0% from downtown. It's unknown how long he'll be out, so there's a chance he could be back for Sunday's game versus the Los Angeles Lakers. In the meantime, Bruce Brown will move into the starting lineup and could thrive with additional minutes.
The Denver Nuggets have acquired guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and point guard Ish Smith in a trade with the Washington Wizards. The Nuggets sent guard Monte Morris and forward Will Barton to Washington in the deal. KCP figures to be a key wing for the Nuggets in 2022-23. Last year, the versatile veteran averaged 13.2 points, 2.1 three-pointers and 1.1 steals per game while shooting 39% from three-point range. Smith, meanwhile, will help give the Nuggets point guard depth behind Jamal Murray, who is expected to make his long-awaited return at the start of the upcoming season.
