9 items this season- ESPN ESPN · Report ·
Jones (hamstring) participated in Sunday's practice, Adam Mares of TheDNVR.com reports.
- Podcast Locked On Nuggets host · Opinion ·
A host argues Spencer Jones earned the backup minutes and should not lose his spot to injury just because Brazile (heard as "Trevin Brazil") is young and exciting.
- Podcast Locked On Nuggets host · Analysis ·
A host says Spencer Jones was the second most consistent playoff player last year after Cam Johnson, shooting 9 of 13 from three and serving as a connective defensive piece.
- Podcast Ryan Blackburn, Locked On Nuggets · Analysis ·
According to Ryan, the bench 'seems' set to be DeRozan, Tyus Jones and Marvin Bagley, plus Julian Strawther (heard as "Julian Strother"; likely) if he is able to go and Spencer Jones.
- Podcast Swipa, Locked On Nuggets · Opinion ·
Swypa listed the top five bench players as Spencer Jones, Tyus Jones, Marvin Bagley and DeMar DeRozan (heard as "jamar derose"), with Tyus Jones named twice. He said Brazile has to come right after them, and he prefers Brazile at the four over Spencer Jones. In his view Spencer should play the three and the backup five.
- Podcast Ryan Blackburn, Locked On Nuggets · Prediction ·
Ryan said Spencer Jones may or may not be ready for the regular season. If he is, Ryan expects a relative minutes restriction of about 15 minutes per game for the first few games.
- Podcast Matt Moore, Locked On Nuggets · Analysis ·
There has been no update on Spencer Jones's condition, and it's unknown when he will be back. If neither he nor Strawther is back by opening night, the host says two of the top 10 are out, forcing Adelman to open up the rotation or stagger.
- ESPN ESPN · Report ·
Jones (hamstring) remains limited to non-contact work, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.
- Podcast Locked On Nuggets host · Opinion ·
The host thinks Brazile (heard as "Trevin Brazil"; likely Trevon Brazile) has to be in the rotation and is a lock for him. He wants Spencer Jones and Bagley (heard as "Martin Bagley"; likely Marvin Bagley III) at that spot too, with Holmes (heard as "Derron Holmes"; likely DaRon Holmes II) and Nnaji (heard as "Zeke Nagy"; likely Zeke Nnaji) filling in when needed.
