Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: 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.
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.

Nuggets' Tim Hardaway: Sinks four threes in preseason loss
Hardaway tallied 13 points (4-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist over 22 minutes during the Nuggets' 94-91 preseason loss to the Thunder on Friday.
Hardaway was moved into the Nuggets' starting five for Friday's preseason finale due to the absence of Christian Braun (rest). Hardaway reached double-digit points for a second straight game, and his four triples were tied with Julian Strawther for most on the Nuggets. Hardaway signed a one-year contract with the Nuggets in the offseason after spending the 2024-25 campaign with the Pistons, and the veteran guard figures to serve in a rotational role off the bench for the 2025-26 regular season.

Nuggets' Jalen Pickett: Solid finish to preseason
Pickett finished Friday's 94-91 preseason loss to the Thunder with 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt), four assists, one rebound, one steal and one block over 25 minutes.
Pickett was one of four Nuggets players to play 25 minutes during Friday's preseason finale, and the 2023 second-rounder finished as the team's fourth-leading scorer behind Peyton Watson (15), Julian Strawther (14) and Tim Hardaway (13). Pickett's playing time figures to be sparse for the start of the 2025-26 regular season as his main competition for minutes will come from the likes of Strawther, Hardaway and Bruce Brown.

Nuggets' Peyton Watson: Leads Denver with 15 points
Watson registered 15 points (5-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block over 25 minutes during the Nuggets' 94-91 preseason loss to the Thunder on Friday.
Watson made his second start of the preseason Friday due to the absence of Aaron Gordon (rest). Watson took advantage of the additional playing time as he led the Nuggets in points while finishing tied with Cameron Johnson for most rebounds and assists. Watson came off the bench for the majority of the 2024-25 season but would be the top option to enter the starting lineup if Gordon were to ever miss time during the regular season.

Nuggets' Julian Strawther: Impresses off bench Friday
Strawther recorded 14 points (5-8 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 0-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and a steal across 18 minutes off the bench in Friday's preseason loss to the Thunder.
The Nuggets rested several key players and Strawther wasn't among the starters, but he made his presence felt despite logging only 18 minutes of action. He ended the preseason on a high note on his quest to secure a regular rotation role ahead of the season opener against the Warriors on Thursday.

Murray (rest) won't play in Friday's preseason finale against the Thunder, Steve McGehee of News 9 Oklahoma City reports.
Murray, Nikola Jokic, Christian Braun and Aaron Gordon will all take a seat for Denver's preseason finale but should be good to go for the regular-season opener against the Warriors on Thursday.

Nuggets' James Akinjo: Jettisoned by Denver
Denver has waived Akinjo.
Akinjo signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Nuggets on Tuesday, but he couldn't quite secure a two-way roster spot. That said, the guard will likely help fill out the G League's Grand Rapids Gold team in 2025-26.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Notches 11 points in win
Johnson produced 11 points (2-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, one assist and two steals across 22 minutes of Tuesday's 124-117 preseason win over Chicago.
Denver's first unit was on cruise control in this game, which served as a dress rehearsal for the starters, although they all had modest workloads by design. Johnson looks like a seamless fit in Denver, with his floor spacing providing an easy outlet pass for Nikola Jokic.

Nuggets' Peyton Watson: Looks good off bench
Watson logged 12 points (3-7 FG, 6-7 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 22 minutes of Tuesday's 124-117 preseason win over Chicago.
Watson has been creating some buzz in training camp and is in the midst of a strong preseason. Through four exhibitions, Watson is shooting 55.0 percent from the field with 8.0 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 19.6 minutes per contest. He looks primed for a key role with the second unit.

Murray amassed 30 points (9-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 10-10 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 27 minutes in Tuesday's 124-117 preseason win over the Bulls.
Murray frequently got to the charity stripe and finished with a game-high mark in points. The star point guard is coming off another productive season in 2024-25, during which he averaged 21.4 points, 6.0 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game across 67 regular-season appearances.
