Added five steals in preseason loss
Nnaji posted five points (2-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt), five steals and three rebounds in Friday's 94-91 preseason loss to Oklahoma City.
ANALYSIS
Nnaji had another quiet night offensively, but tallying five steals is not to be ignored. While he is not projected to be in the rotation for Denver's regular-season opener against the Warriors on Thursday, Nnaji may be able to carve out a role for himself if he continues to display defensive intensity.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2020
Entering his fourth season in the NBA, it's make or break for Nnaji, who has yet to carve out a consistent role for himself. He finished well outside the top 300 in standard leagues for the third straight season, averaging 5.2 points and 2.6 rebounds in 13.7 minutes per game. Despite the loss of Jeff Green and Bruce Brown, it's hard to envisage a situation in which Nnaji plays more than about 15 minutes per night, outside short-term periods as a result of injuries to other players. He is still only 22 years of age, meaning the scope for him to improve does exist, albeit on a small scale.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Bulls don't want him
The Bulls are hesitant to absorb Nnaji's contract in a potential deal involving Zach LaVine to Denver, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Nnaji is in the first year of a four-year, $32 million contract, but he hasn't been able to crack Denver's rotation -- DeAndre Jordan is currently getting the backup center minutes behind Nikola Jokic. Talks have reportedly stalled between Denver and Chicago with Nnaji's inclusion in the deal being a roadblock. In 212 career regular-season appearances, Nnaji holds averages of 4.2 points and 2.3 rebounds in 11.7 minutes.
