Aaron Holiday is Moving into Starting Five
Houston Rockets guard Aaron Holiday will move into the starting five ahead of Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He'll take over with the starting unit with Tari Eason (ankle) ruled out. A shift into the starting five doesn't exactly make Holiday an appealing fantasy option. This season, Holiday is averaging 6.3 points, 0.9 rebounds, and 0.9 assists in 13.8 minutes per game this season. He has been barely cracking 10 minutes in the rotation lately. Holiday was producing decent streaming value with 20-plus minutes, so he could offer low-end streaming value with an extended look. His overall value might also be dependent on the status of Alperen Sengun (ankle), who is currently a game-time decision.

Aaron Gordon is Available on Sunday
Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is available to play ahead of Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Gordon is ready to go after being listed as probable on the injury report earlier in the day. He'll move into the starting five on Sunday, but the Nuggets are likely to continue monitoring his minutes. Since returning, Gordon is averaging 15.3 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 3.0 assists over his last four games. Given the injuries on this roster, Gordon should be leaned on more offensively, with Jamal Murray (ankle, illness) and Christian Braun (ankle) both out.

Christian Braun is Downgraded to Out
Denver Nuggets guard/forward Christian Braun (ankle) has been downgraded to out ahead of Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Braun was originally probable, but will now sit out Sunday's game due to an ankle problem. His absence should mean that Bruce Brown will move into the starting five. Brown has been an inconsistent fantasy option, but is worth a look with a heavier workload. He finished with 19 points and six rebounds across 39 minutes of action against the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday. Fantasy managers looking for help on Sunday night should consider Brown.

Jamal Murray is Unavailable on Sunday
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle, illness) is ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He will miss his second straight game due to an ankle issue and lingering illness. The already banged-up Nuggets will need to rely on Jalen Pickett to play big minutes once again. He has posted back-to-back seven-point performances, but the increased playing time does make Pickett more appealing for Sunday's slate. Fantasy managers looking for a streaming option should consider Pickett, as he'll at least be able to offer low-end value.
