Christian Braun Questionable for Nuggets Due to Back Strain
Christian Braun, shooting guard for the Denver Nuggets, is dealing with a low back strain. He is uncertain to play in the team’s upcoming games. The injury first started on December 15th, and he was already out for the game against the Sacramento Kings on December 16th.
What It Means
This injury news means that Christian Braun’s availability is in question for future games. He has been performing well this season with an average of 15 points per game and a field goal percentage of 56.7%. His contributions are valuable as he often finishes in the top five at his position in rebounds and fantasy points.
If Braun cannot play, Julian Strawther and Jalen Pickett might see more time on the court. Strawther averages 9.3 points per game while Pickett scores about 1.6 points per game. The Nuggets will need these players to step up if Braun remains sidelined.
