Eligibility
Christian Braun scored 19 points (6-14 FG, 2-6 3PT, 5-6 FT) to go along with 10 rebounds, five assists and two steals in the Nuggets 126-111 win over the Grizzlies.
Fantasy Impact
Braun figures to hold a pivotal bench role for Denver who looks to repeat as NBA Finals champions this season. They'll start against the Lakers or Pelicans in the first-round.
Christian Braun scored 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 3PT) to go along with two rebounds, five assists and two steals in the Nuggets 111-95 win over the Jazz.
Fantasy Impact
Braun saw another start with Aaron Gordon sidelined. His upside from a fantasy perspective remains limited even in spot starts.
Christian Braun played 33 minutes of Thursday’s loss to the Suns, finishing with 15 points (6-11 FG, 2-5 3P, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists, and two steals.
Fantasy Impact
Braun joined four other second-stringers in the starting five on Thursday with the team electing to rest their usual first unit. The Nuggets already have the top seed in the West locked up, so Braun could once again be an extremely viable fantasy option Saturday when they take on the Jazz. The Kansas product has been impressive during his rookie season, and the added opportunity gives him increased appeal for DFS and for managers still alive in season-long leagues.
Christian Braun scored nine points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3P, 2-2 FT) with two rebounds, one assist, and two steals across 26 minutes in Denver’s 126-103 win over the Bulls on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Braun has logged at least 13 minutes in nine of Denver’s first 12 games and the first 12 games of his career. Braun’s 26 minutes were his second most this season. The rookie remains best rostered in the deepest of season-long formats but offers great minutes-to-dollars value in DFS formats.
The Denver Nuggets have selected Christian Braun with the No.21 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft.
Fantasy Impact
Christian Braun joins the Denver Nuggets and will look to help improve the team with his athleticism and solid outside shot that can help stretch defenses. Braun is also a great rebounder for his size, averaging 6.5 boards a game last season at Kansas. He’s an all out effort type of player who isn’t afraid to do all the little things to help his team win.
