    The Nuggets have a perfect 6-0 record in February, and Braun has been outstanding during that stretch. He holds averages of 19.7 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.5 blocks in those six games, returning second-round value in nine-category formats in that span.

    Braun contributed 18 points (6-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and one block in 38 minutes during Saturday's 122-105 win over Phoenix.

    Making his fifth straight start, Braun set a new season high in assists in another productive performance. Over those five starts, the third-year wing is averaging 18.4 points, 8.2 boards, 3.8 assists, 1.8 steals and 0.8 threes while shooting 54.5 percent from the floor.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Three swipes in victory

    Braun contributed 16 points (8-12 FG, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and three steals over 36 minutes during Thursday's 112-90 victory over the Magic.

    Braun led the club with a game-high mark in steals while delivering an efficient performance from the field in the win. The third-year pro has logged three steals in each of his last two outings, and he has also racked up five or more rebounds in each of his last eight. Over his last 10 appearances (eight starts), Braun has averaged 18.1 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.2 three-pointers in 31.3 minutes per game. The 23-year-old has also recorded 59.7/40.0/87.1 shooting splits in that 10-game span.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Hits for 23 points in win

    Braun recorded 23 points (8-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 144-119 victory over the Pelicans.

    Braun has stepped up during Russell Westbrook's (hamstring) extended absence, once again proving his worth as an every-day starter for the Nuggets. The 23-year-old is enjoying the best season of his pro career, averaging 14.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.1 steals over 50 games.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Records double-double Saturday

    Braun chipped in 24 points (9-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two steals in 38 minutes during Saturday's 107-104 win over Charlotte.

    Braun moved back into the starting lineup, filling in for Russell Westbrook, who was sidelined due to a hamstring issue. After a red-hot start to the season, Braun's production had tailed off until recently, having now scored at least 20 points in six of the past 10 games. Over the past eight games, he is averaging 18.9 points to go with 5.8 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.5 three-pointers. Should Westbrook be forced to miss additional time, Braun should be able to hold down a starting role moving forward.

    Braun is in the Nuggets' starting lineup against the Hornets on Saturday.

    Braun will take the place of Russell Westbrook (hamstring) in the starting lineup Saturday. Braun averaged 14.5 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.8 assists over 29.9 minutes per game in January.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Not starting Wednesday

    Braun will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

    Aaron Gordon replaces Braun in the starting lineup, resulting in Braun's first contest as a reserve this season. Although he won't be part of the first unit, expect Braun to see a sizeable role off the bench.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Lands career-high 28 points

    Braun logged 28 points (11-15 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 33 minutes during Monday's 129-121 loss to the Bulls.

    Braun erupted for a career-high 28 points, continuing his recent uptick in production. He has now scored at least 20 points in five of the past seven games, a welcome sight after a scoring slump to begin the month. He has started every game this season, averaging 14.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 32.4 minutes per game.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Drops 21 points in win

    Braun accumulated 21 points (8-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, two steals, one assist and one block across 25 minutes during Thursday's 132-123 win over Sacramento.

    The 23-year-old recorded his third consecutive contest with at least 20 points, finishing as the club's second-leading scorer behind Nikola Jokic (35 points). Thursday's win also marked Braun's 11th outing with multiple swipes. The third-year guard has taken a significant leap this season, and he has been stellar over his last five outings, during which he has averaged 19.0 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists while shooting 67.9 percent from the field in 29.6 minutes per game.

  • 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 per 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.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Trending toward playing

    Braun (back) will likely play in Thursday's game against Portland, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

    Braun presumably needs to get the final go-ahead from the medical staff, but all signs point to him playing in Thursday's clash after missing Monday's game against the Kings. The Nuggets should have the final word on his availability closer to tipoff.
