  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Scores 20 points Tuesday

    Braun closed with 20 points (8-11 FG, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal over 25 minutes during Tuesday's 144-109 victory over the 76ers.

    Braun had a solid showing in this blowout win and reached the 20-point plateau for the third time over his last four appearances. He seems to be growing more comfortable on offense as the season progresses, and with Russell Westbrook adopting a lesser role in the scoring column, Braun has done a good job of taking advantage of that opportunity. Braun is averaging 13.3 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.7 assists pe game since the beginning of January.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Tallies double-double in win

    Braun accumulated 20 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and one block across 36 minutes during Sunday's 113-100 win over the Magic.

    Braun put forth a balanced showcase Sunday, posting a team-high-tying scoring total while finishing second on the team in rebounds and as one of two Nuggets with a double-double in a winning effort. Braun posted a new season high in rebounds, his first double-digit rebound total of the year. He has now surpassed the 20-point mark in five contests, including in two of his last three outings.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Season-high 22 points in loss

    Braun logged 22 points (10-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four boards and one assist in 35 minutes of action in Wednesday's 128-108 loss to the Rockets.

    The third-year guard matched Jamal Murray as the team's leading scorers with Nikola Jokic (elbow) sidelined and Michael Porter cobbling together a quiet outing Wednesday. Having only missed one shot all night, Braun's efficiency was encouraging, but he didn't contribute much across the board. However, if Jokic can't suit up for Friday's game against the Heat, Braun could be someone to keep an eye on in deeper formats.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Records three blocks

    Braun racked up six points (3-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds and three blocks in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 118-99 victory over Dallas.

    Despite a quiet showing offensively, Braun made up for it with a season-high three blocks. He continues to have a career season for Denver and is on pace to return seventh-round value in nine-category formats with averages of 13.4 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.6 blocks.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Notches 12 points

    Braun registered 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 118-106 loss to the Celtics.

    Nikola Jokic (illness) sat this game out, but Braun didn't soak up much usage in his absence. However, he continues to contribute across the stat sheet. He's been a seventh-round value in nine-category formats over his last eight games with 12.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.6 blocks.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Pours in 20 points

    Braun provided 20 points (9-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 36 minutes during Monday's 132-121 win over Utah.

    This was arguably Braun's best performance of the month as he recorded his third game of the campaign with at least 20 points. However, his level of play declined in December after his hot start to the season. He posted averages of 11.5 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.4 three-pointers over his last 13 games.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Good to go

    Braun (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.

    Braun has been dealing with a lower back strain lately, but he will be able to play through it again Sunday. Over his last five appearances, Braun is averaging 12.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 1.2 assists in 31.4 minutes per contest.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Likely to play Sunday

    Braun is probable for Sunday's game against the Pelicans due to a lower back strain.

    Braun has been dealing with a lower back injury for almost a week and has already missed a game due to the issue. However, he's expected to face the Pelicans on Sunday for the first leg of a back-to-back set. He played just 24 minutes in the Nuggets' most recent game, which is significantly lower than his average of 34.3 minutes per game this year.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Posts 13 points in return to action

    Braun notched 13 points (5-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 24 minutes during Thursday's 126-124 loss to the Trail Blazers.

    Braun rejoined the starting lineup after a one-game absence, but his minute total was lower than normal. The team won't take any chances with Braun's back issue and will slowly bring him along. We may see a game or two where his usage falls below his usual 34.3-minute average, but barring any setbacks, he'll return to his customary minute amount in short order.

    Braun finished Sunday's 141-111 victory over the Hawks with 17 points (7-11 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, two steals and one block over 32 minutes.

    Braun stuffed the stat sheet while extending his double-digit scoring streak to 22 games this season. The 23-year-old was efficient from the field in the blowout win and tied his season high in rebounds. Braun's availability and productivity have made him a viable fantasy option this season. Through five appearances in December, he has averaged 12.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.8 blocks while shooting 53.1 percent from the field in 36.2 minutes per contest.
