Peyton Watson Back for Nuggets Tuesday
Denver Nuggets forward Peyton Watson (ankle) will return from a one-game absence on Tuesday night against the Detroit Pistons. Watson was sidelined for the second leg of a back-to-back on Friday against the Milwaukee Bucks as he dealt with sprains in both ankles. In his last outing, Watson dropped 35 points on the Washington Wizards. He has elevated his game this month, averaging 23.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.5 blocks, and 1.3 steals in 36.2 minutes per game. Watson will start Tuesday's contest alongside Jamal Murray, Jalen Pickett, Spencer Jones, and Jonas Valanciunas. Julian Strawther and Zeke Nnaji will drop to the bench, while Aaron Gordon (hamstring) has been ruled out for the game.
