  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Moving back to bench Thursday

    Holiday will not start against the Wizards on Thursday, Vic Lombardi of Altitude Sports reports.

    Head coach Michael Malone revealed that all the regular starters will be in the lineup against Washington, so Holiday will head to the bench in favor of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Holiday should still see decent minutes off the bench, however.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Gets starting nod

    Holiday is in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Kings.

    Holiday will replace Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) in the starting lineup Wednesday. Holiday is averaging 7.0 points, 2.2 assists, 1.6 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 27.2 minutes across his last five starting appearances.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Heads back to bench

    Holiday isn't starting Monday's game against the Bucks.

    Holiday entered the starting five for Denver's last two contests while Kentavious Caldwell-Pope returned to health, and the 34-year-old will now retreat to the bench with Caldwell-Pope cleared to return. Holiday has seen limited action in his last five games off the bench, averaging 1.8 points in 8.0 minutes.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Rough night in spot start

    Holiday produced two points (1-1 FG), one rebound and one assist over 22 minutes before fouling out of Thursday's 114-106 win over the Lakers.

    Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) got the night off, but Holiday failed to make a positive impact in his first start since Dec. 16. That was also the last time the journeyman guard played 20 or more minutes in a game, and he's had a hard time of late simply keeping a consistent spot in the Nuggets' backcourt rotation. Even if KCP misses additional time, Holiday's fantasy upside is minimal.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Starting Thursday

    Holiday will be in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Lakers, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Holiday is replacing Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) in the first unit, and he'll be joined by Jamal Murray, Michael Porter, Aaron Gordon and Nikola Jokic. With Denver's other main players healthy, Holiday isn't the most attractive streamer despite the increased opportunity.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Back in rotation Wednesday

    Holiday accumulated five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound, one block and one steal over 11 minutes during Wednesday's 105-100 loss to the Thunder.

    Holiday moved back into the rotation, seeing action for just the second time in the past six games. The veteran provides the Nuggets with a useable depth piece, although his days of being fantasy-relevant are now well behind him. There is no reason to consider him, even in deeper formats.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Used sparingly Friday

    Holiday finished Friday's 125-113 win over New Orleans with no counting stats over two minutes.

    Holiday saw just two minutes off the bench Friday, continuing his disappointing season. Although he has been handed a sizeable role at times throughout the campaign, Holiday is barely inside the top 300 in standard leagues. While he is another nice veteran piece for the Nuggets, he has almost no fantasy value outside of extremely deep leagues.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Moves back to bench

    Holiday isn't starting Monday's game against the Mavericks, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Holiday drew a spot start Thursday against the Nets with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (concussion) ruled out, but the Washington product will come off the bench Monday with Caldwell-Pope cleared for play. Holiday has struggled to see consistent playing time when the Nuggets are healthy, and he's averaging 13.7 minutes to go along with 3.3 points and 1.3 rebounds in three games off the bench in December.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Limited impact as starter

    Holiday amassed two points (1-6 FG, 0-5 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and four steals across 27 minutes during Thursday's 124-101 victory over the Nets.

    Holiday joined the starting lineup for Thursday's matchup with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (concussion) sidelined. Holiday had a limited impact on the offensive end behind an inefficient showing from the floor, but he made his presence known defensively with a season-high four steals. He's now played over 20 minutes in back-to-back games, but his role moving forward will likely depend on Caldwell-Pope's health.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Gets starting nod

    Holiday will slide into the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Nets.

    Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is in the concussion protocol for Denver, and it's unclear how much time he'll miss. Holiday is not a high-usage player, but he'll provide some floor spacing and defensive versatility for the Nuggets. In four total starts this season, Holiday has averaged 10.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 2.3 three-pointers.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Back to bench

    Holiday will come off the bench for Saturday's game against the Kings.

    Aaron Gordon (hip) is back from a four-game absence and will reclaim his starting spot. Holiday has been excellent for the Nuggets in recent games and is likely to play a big role for the second unit.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Another quality outing

    Holiday racked up 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and two steals in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 134-124 victory over the Rockets.

    Holiday has now made three consecutive starts for Denver with Aaron Gordon (heel) out. The veteran forward is averaging 9.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.3 steals in 29.3 minutes over that span. Holiday is also shooting 55.0 percent from the field and 46.2 percent on 4.3 three-point attempts across those three contests.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Draws start Sunday

    Holiday is starting Sunday against the Spurs.

    Holiday has been on the fringes of Denver's rotation this season but will join the starting lineup for the first time this year with Aaron Gordon (heel) sidelined. Holiday tallied three points and a steal in 13 minutes during Friday's blowout loss to the Rockets.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Spotted in wild Friday

    Holiday accumulated three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and one steal across 13 minutes during Friday's 105-86 loss to the Rockets.

    Holiday cracked the rotation for just the sixth time this season, offering basically zero in terms of fantasy production. Given he has scored a total of 15 points to this point, managers can safely ignore him in all formats.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Not part of rotation Tuesday

    Holiday didn't play during Tuesday's 119-107 win over the Lakers.

    Holiday was really the Nuggets' only free-agent signing this offseason, and he was expected to help fill the void left by Bruce Brown and Jeff Green. However, Holiday didn't see any action during the regular-season opener, as Denver opted to give extended minutes off the bench to Reggie Jackson, Christian Braun, Zeke Nnaji and Peyton Watson instead. Holiday's three-and-D skill set should help him carve out a rotational role eventually, but at the moment, he doesn't need to be rostered in standard leagues.

  • Nuggets' Justin Holiday: Coming off bench

    Holiday will come off the bench for Thursday's preseason game against the Clippers.

    The Nuggets are mixing it up and will give Hunter Tyson a look next to Denver's usual starters of Jamal Murray, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Aaron Gordon and Nikola Jokic. With Michael Porter (ankle) questionable for Opening Night, Holiday could potentially have a decent role to open the season.
