Brown provided 12 points (5-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists and three steals in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 125-118 win over the Pelicans.
Brown followed up his scoreless outing against Chicago with 12 points on great efficiency, but his offensive consistency prevents him from being considered in fantasy even when the Nuggets are down multiple starters, like they were Wednesday. Through 14 games, Brown averages 6.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.1 blocks.

Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Drops season-high 14 points
Rotowire
Brown produced 14 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 122-108 victory over Sacramento.
Brown played at least 25 minutes for just the second time all season, tallying a season-best 14 points. Serving as the team's sixth man, Brown has settled into a familiar role. However, he would likely need an injury to a key player to have any chance of putting up standard league value. Through 10 games, he has averaged 7.1 points, 4.4 rebounds and 0.9 steals in 21.2 minutes per contest.

Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Strong line off bench
Rotowire
Brown provided 13 points (5-10 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 22 minutes during Monday's 130-124 victory over the Kings.
Brown is able to help fantasy managers in multiple categories, which gives him a nice floor, but his workload remains relatively low. Through the opening six games, Brown is outside the top 150 in standard fantasy leagues on a per-game basis with averages of 6.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.7 steals, 0.5 blocks and 0.8 three-pointers in 19.2 minutes per contest.

Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Sees 19 minutes in loss
Rotowire
Brown posted four points (2-3 FG), five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 19 minutes during Thursday's 137-131 overtime loss to the Warriors.
Brown put together a solid fantasy line in his limited run, but this type of workload is going to make it tough for him to sustain much value this season. At least while the Nuggets are at full strength, Brown could be a hit-or-miss fantasy option in deeper formats.

Nuggets' Bruce Brown: Starting Friday
Rotowire
Brown will start in Friday's preseason game against the Thunder, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.
The 29-year-old will enter the starting five with Jamal Murray (rest) sitting out the team's preseason finale. Brown is expected to provide a spark off the bench this season and will likely compete for playing time with Jalen Pickett, Julian Strawther and Tim Hardaway.
Brown recorded seven points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist, two steals and two blocks across 18 minutes of Monday's 112-108 preseason win over the Raptors.
Brown, who reunited with the Nuggets on a one-year, $3.63 minimum contract, is expected to play a key role for the second unit. The last time he was in Denver (2022-23), Brown averaged 29.7 minutes per game, but that number seems unlikely this time around due to internal improvements from Christian Braun and Peyton Watson.
