What changed

Last season (2025-26)
Minutes+8.0Probably real

Strawther's playing time is up 8.0 minutes a game over his 33 games since Jan 29 (18.4 vs 10.5). Most of it is a teammate's absence: Peyton Watson (30 MPG before) played only 10 of 35 games, plus 1 more key player out. Probably real: about 75% should hold.

Day-To-DayStrawther exited to the locker room in the third quarter of Wednesday's loss to the Clippers after his left knee bent awkwardly following contact while handling the ball. "All you can do is hope for the best," said Nuggets head coach David Adelman. An extended absence for Strawther would test Denver's depth on the wing with Spencer Jones (hamstring) not yet cleared for contact. Expected back: 2026-10-16.
