Nuggets' David Roddy: Double-doubles Sunday
Roddy notched 15 points (6-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Sunday's 128-118 win over the Spurs.
Roddy was one of several Denver players who enjoyed an uptick in playing time in the final days of the regular season due to the rest of several regulars. He took advantage of the opportunity by racking up 36 points, 15 rebounds, three steals and two assists in back-to-back wins over the Thunder and Spurs. Even though his performances were impressive, he's not expected to see regular playing time for Denver in the playoffs.

Nuggets' Julian Strawther: Scores 25 vs. San Antonio
Strawther notched 25 points (9-19 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Sunday's 128-118 win over San Antonio.
Strawther made a strong case to be considered for playing time in the postseason after scoring 22 points against the Thunder and 25 against the Spurs on Friday and Sunday, respectively. Strawther should return to his regular bench in the playoffs, though. He ends the 2025-26 regular season with averages of 7.2 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game while starting in 14 of his 57 appearances.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Logs 18 minutes in season finale
Jokic amassed 23 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 8-8 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one block over 18 minutes during Sunday's 128-118 victory over San Antonio.
Jokic suited up Sunday to reach the 65-game threshold required to be eligible for end-of-season awards. In dominant fashion, and to prove a point regarding his eligibility, he needed less than 20 minutes to surpass the 20-point mark, ending just two boards shy of a double-double. Jokic was one of the most dominant players in the NBA during the regular season, both in fantasy and in real life, after averaging 27.7 points, 12.9 rebounds and 10.7 assists per game. This was the second consecutive season he averaged a triple-double.

Nuggets' Jonas Valanciunas: Headed to bench
Valanciunas will come off the bench for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Spurs.
Nikola Jokic (wrist) will return from a one-game absence, but he'll likely have his minutes limited, so Valanciunas could still see quality playing time in the reserve role. Per 36 minutes this season, Valanciunas has averaged 23.3 points, 13.4 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.5 blocks per contest.

Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Starting Sunday
Nnaji will start Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Nnaji will be making just his fourth start of the season. He has seen at least 25 minutes in each of his previous three starts.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Will play in regular-season finale
Jokic (wrist) is available for Sunday's game against the Spurs, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.
While the rest of Denver's usual starters sit out Sunday's regular-season finale, Jokic will suit up in an effort to reach the 65-game threshold for end-of-season awards. Head coach David Adelman said pregame that the superstar will play the first half as usual before being evaluated ahead of the second half, per Matt Guzman of SI.com.

Nuggets' Peyton Watson: Will miss regular-season finale
Watson (hamstring) will miss Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Watson is considered week-to-week due to right hamstring tightness, so it's not surprising to see him sit out the final game of the regular season. He will finish the regular season with averages of 14.6 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game while starting 40 of his 54 appearances. It remains to be seen if he'll be available for the start of the playoffs.

Nuggets' Spencer Jones: Out vs. San Antonio
Jones (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Jones will miss a sixth straight game due to a right hamstring strain. It remains to be seen whether he'll be ready for the start of the playoffs next week, as he'll have an entire week to continue his rehab. Jones averaged 5.5 points and 3.3 rebounds per game in 64 appearances (37 starts) in the regular season.

Nuggets' Cameron Johnson: Ruled out for Sunday
Johnson (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Though they could drop to the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference with a loss and a Lakers win over the Jazz, the Nuggets will prioritize rest for Johnson and multiple other key rotation players. Johnson will wind up sitting out two straight games to close out the regular season, but he should be ready to handle a 30-plus-minute role once postseason play gets underway. Though Johnson shot a career-best 48 percent from the field and 43 percent from long distance in his first season in Denver, he was limited to just 54 appearances and saw his counting statistics take a hit while taking on a lower-usage role than he had handled with Brooklyn in 2024-25.

Nuggets' Tim Hardaway: Won't play vs. Spurs
Hardaway won't play Sunday against the Spurs due to left knee soreness.
Hardaway is one of several regular rotation members who will sit out Sunday's regular-season finale against the Spurs. The veteran sharpshooter enjoyed a strong regular season with Denver, averaging 13.5 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game while shooting a career-best 40.7 percent from three-point range in 80 regular-season contests (six starts).

Nuggets' Christian Braun: Still out for Sunday
Braun (ankle/hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Braun will miss a second consecutive contest to end the regular season due to left ankle injury management and a right hip flexor strain. He'll finish the 2025-26 regular season with averages of 12.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 0.7 steals in 31.8 minutes per tilt across 44 games.

Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Won't go in regular-season finale
Gordon (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Gordon will miss a second straight game due to right hamstring injury management, though he should be good to go for the start of the postseason. He'll finish the 2025-26 regular season with averages of 16.2 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.7 assists across 27.9 minutes per game in 36 appearances (33 starts). David Roddy and Julian Strawther will likely see increased playing time in Gordon's absence Sunday.

Nuggets' Jamal Murray: Won't play in regular-season finale
Murray has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Spurs due to a right shoulder impingement.
Murray will join at least three more of Denver's regular starters on the inactive list for Sunday's regular-season finale, while Nikola Jokic (wrist) is listed as questionable. Murray earned his first All-Star nod in the 2025-26 campaign and will finish the regular season with averages of 25.4 points, 7.1 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 0.9 steals in 35.4 minutes per game across 75 appearances. Tyus Jones and Jalen Pickett will likely see increased playing time in Murray's stead.

Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Iffy for regular-season finale
Jokic (wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Jokic needs to suit up in Sunday's regular-season finale to reach the 65-game threshold for end-of-season awards, though there's a chance he will be held out. If the big man is cleared to play, he would likely see limited run, as the rest of Denver's usual starters have already been ruled out.
