Top Kentavious Caldwell-Pope News

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Scores 16 points in easy win

    Caldwell-Pope racked up 16 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists, one rebound and one steal in 31 minutes during Sunday's 132-120 victory over the Spurs.

    Caldwell-Pope has been struggling a bit with his shot, particularly from long range, but he's finding ways to make things happen and has scored in double digits in four consecutive games, even reaching the 20-point plateau twice in that span. The veteran shooter might experience an uptick in usage rate and scoring figures as long as Jamal Murray (hamstring) and Aaron Gordon (heel) remain sidelined.

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Will play Sunday

    Caldwell-Pope (ankle) will play in Sunday's game against the Spurs, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

    Caldwell-Pope found himself on the injury report with an apparent ankle injury, but it is not serious enough to keep him out of the lineup. In his last five games, Caldwell-Pope has averaged 13.4 points, 3.6 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 35.0 minutes per contest.

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Probable against Spurs

    Caldwell-Pope (ankle) is probable against the Spurs on Sunday.

    Sunday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, and Caldwell-Pope is one of several key Nuggets carrying probable tags. Caldwell-Pope was one of the few bright spots in Friday's loss to Houston, as he dropped 20 points with five rebounds, three assists, three steals and one three-pointer in 39 minutes.

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Pops for 20 points Friday

    Caldwell-Pope finished with 20 points (7-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds, three assists and three steals over 39 minutes during Friday's 105-86 loss to the Rockets.

    Caldwell-Pope came to play Friday, dropping at least 20 points for the second time in the past three games. While his recent offensive outburst should be viewed as an outlier, he typically does just enough on both ends of the floor to warrant a roster spot in most standard leagues.

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Reaches 20 points in win

    Caldwell-Pope notched 20 points (8-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block across 36 minutes during Monday's 107-103 victory over the Pistons.

    With Jamal Murray (hamstring) out and Nikola Jokic getting ejected in the second quarter, the Nuggets were without their top two offensive options for most of the game. Caldwell-Pope stepped in to help fill the void, finishing second on the team in scoring behind only Reggie Jackson while adding production in the defensive categories. Expect Caldwell-Pope's offensive responsibilities to take a step back when Jokic returns to action Wednesday in Orlando, but the former should still make for a solid streaming option for three-pointers and steals.

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Quiet in loss to Cleveland

    Caldwell-Pope posted nine points (2-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 31 minutes during Sunday's 121-109 loss to the Cavaliers.

    Caldwell-Pope rarely posts fantasy lines that will blow you away, but he consistently provides ample amounts of three-pointers and steals. Through 13 games this season, Caldwell-Pope is averaging 9.5 points, 1.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.6 three-pointers.

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Distributes in win

    Caldwell-Pope posted 15 points (5-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, seven assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Monday's 134-116 win over New Orleans.

    Caldwell-Pope had never exceeded six assists in his Denver tenure until Monday, stepping up as a facilitator with Jamal Murray (hamstring) inactive. Reggie Jackson and Collin Gillespie represent the only true point guards on the roster, so while Murray is sidelined, it's plausible that Caldwell-Pope will continue having an increased role creating looks for his teammates.

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Scores eight points

    Caldwell-Pope racked up eight points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds, two blocks and one steal over 33 minutes during Monday's 110-102 win over the Jazz.

    Caldwell-Pope will rarely fill up the box score, but he's known for quietly providing a steady supply of defensive stats and three-pointers for Denver. Through four games, Caldwell-Pope is averaging 10.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.8 steals, 1.0 block and 1.8 three-pointers.

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Impressive 20-point performance

    Caldwell-Pope logged 20 points (8-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals over 36 minutes during Tuesday's 119-107 win over the Lakers.

    Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray ran the show for the Nuggets on Tuesday, but there's no question that Caldwell-Pope's contributions contributed massively to the win, as he was efficient from the floor and also contributed in other categories. He's not going to be a 20-point scorer on a regular basis, but he should get plenty of open looks to put up serviceable scoring numbers across most fantasy formats in 2023-24.

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Starting Thursday

    Caldwell-Pope will start Thursday's preseason game against the Clippers.

    Caldwell-Pope and the rest of Denver's starters took a seat during Tuesday's exhibition for rest purposes. With this being the final preseason game, coach Michael Malone said he expects the first unit to get a good amount of playing time.

  • Nuggets' Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Dialed in against Suns

    Caldwell-Pope tallied 12 points (4-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), a rebound and an assist across 17 minutes in Tuesday's 115-107 preseason win over the Suns.

    Caldwell-Pope's role should be enhanced with Bruce Brown off the team. Alongside Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray and Michael Porter, fantasy managers should temper their expectations regarding his potential, but as he demonstrated in the playoffs last year, he can make a significant impact when needed.

    Caldwell-Pope was a menace on defense during the Game 5 win and came up with the game-clinching steal in the final seconds. The veteran was a consistent producer on both ends of the court during Denver's postseason run, posting 10.6 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.7 blocks in 33.5 minutes. Caldwell-Pope is under contract for at least one more year and has a player option for 2024-25.
