Seven different Nuggets scored in double digits as the team set a new franchise record for points in a road game. Strawther has scored 10-plus points in seven straight games, including five straight starts since Peyton Watson (hamstring) was sidelined. Since joining the starting five, Strawther is averaging 17.4 points, 3.8 boards, 2.8 threes, 1.6 assists and 1.0 steals in 28.2 minutes.

Strawther closed Monday's 119-117 loss to the Cavaliers with 20 points (8-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and six rebounds over 29 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Strawther put together another solid number in his second start of the season. He's coming in handy as a placeholder amid absences from Peyton Watson (hamstring) and Spencer Jones (concussion). Jones may return before the All-Star break, which may send Strawther back to the bench.

Strawther will start against the Bulls on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old wing will get the starting nod for the second time this season due to Aaron Gordon (hamstring), Peyton Watson (hamstring) and Spencer Jones (concussion) being sidelined. During his lone start this season in a Jan. 23 win over Milwaukee, Strawther posted 20 points, five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 27 minutes.

Strawther finished Tuesday's 124-121 loss to the Pistons with 15 points (6-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and two assists over 23 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Strawther scored in double digits for the first time in the past five games, and for just the fifth time this season. With Spencer Jones nearing his games-allowed limit, Strawther was able to play a meaningful role, something that can't be said for his season thus far. At this point, Strawther is simply a name to watch, just in case Denver doesn't convert Jones' contract.

Strawther won't start against the Pistons on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
With Jamal Murray (hamstring/hip) back in the lineup, Strawther will shift back to a bench role. Over his last five appearances off the bench, the 23-year-old swingman has averaged 4.2 points in 11.8 minutes per tilt.

Strawther logged 20 points (6-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 27 minutes during Friday's 102-100 win over Milwaukee.
EDGE Analysis
Strawther made his first start of the season with Jamal Murray (hamstring/hip), Christian Braun (ankle) and Peyton Watson (ankle) sidelined and capitalized on the opportunity by leading Denver in scoring during a win. The Gonzaga product entered Friday averaging just 3.8 points and 1.3 rebounds in 9.7 minutes across 22 appearances, inconsistently factoring into the regular rotation. While his usage is likely to dip as the Nuggets get healthier, outings like this can help keep Strawther in the mix for minutes moving forward.

Strawther will start Friday's game against the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
With the Nuggets shorthanded on the second night of a back-to-back set, Strawther will get the starting nod for the first time this season. He's averaging 3.8 points and 1.3 rebounds in just 9.7 minutes per game, though he should see a significant uptick in playing time Friday.

Strawther finished Sunday's 110-87 loss to the Hornets with 15 points (5-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals in 20 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Strawther played his most minutes since Nov. 8 in Sunday's blowout loss to the Hornets. The 23-year-old forward took advantage of his increased reps, scoring a season-high 15 points. Strawther hasn't been a consistent part of Denver's rotation, even with the team dealing with multiple injuries, averaging just 10.9 minutes per game since December.

Strawther accumulated zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound across 10 minutes during Friday's 110-87 loss to the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
Strawther was back in the rotation, albeit for just 10 minutes. He has played only three times in Denver's past six games, averaging 2.0 points in 10.3 minutes per contest. At this point, there is no reason to consider rostering him outside of very deep leagues.

Strawther (illness) is available for Friday's game against the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Strawther will suit up after being listed as probable. While he hasn't been a consistent part of the rotation all season long, the third-year wing is a candidate for extra run due to the Nuggets being extremely shorthanded for the next few games.
