|
| | | DENVER: GUARDS: TY LAWSON is turning into something of a one-man army as the roster around him crumbles. As good as he is as a quick playmaker who can knock down an open three, his supporting cast is lacking . . . EVAN FOURNIER is better than RANDY FOYE now, and he's certainly a bigger part of Denver's future. Fournier proved surprisingly ready for the NBA last season. While Foye brings more scoring power to a team that suddenly lacks offense, he's both inefficient and one-dimensional . . . NATE ROBINSON will provide instant offense and lead the second unit . . . ANDRE MILLER will lose a few minutes this year, but the 37-year-old still has good basketball left. FORWARDS: Coming off a late-season ACL tear, DANILO GALLINARI will be lucky to make it back by December . . . KENNETH FARIED will likely never develop into anything more than an energy guy and high-volume rebounder, but he's good at what he does . . . WILSON CHANDLER can shoot and defend multiple positions. With Gallinari a question mark, he could be in for a much bigger role this year . . . DARRELL ARTHUR is an interesting second-unit player. He's an athlete who was starting to show some skill in Memphis before getting hurt . . . Gunning wingman JORDAN HAMILTON may get a longer look in the second half of the season . . . QUINCY MILLER is likely ticketed for more D-League action . . . ANTHONY RANDOLPH is a lost cause. CENTERS: The time has arrived for JAVALE MCGEE. The front office wants him on the floor full-time. For all the knucklehead plays, he's still an incredible athlete in a massive 7-foot frame . . . Talk of J.J. HICKSON potentially starting is absurd. A brutal defender unable to play within the flow of an offense, he's a second-unit talent . . . TIMOFEY MOZGOV is Plan B behind McGee. The 7-footer can defend and set screens. | | UTAH: GUARDS: TREY BURKE is a savvy floor general who can shoot, but he's also short and a mediocre athlete (and we've seen how that's worked out for Brandon Knight). He'll step right in at the point, but immediate success is hardly guaranteed . . . ALEC BURKS is locked in at the two. He'll be able to hang in defensively, and he's a decent ball-handler and passer. His shaky jumper is an issue . . . BRANDON RUSH returns from an ACL tear and could emerge as the sixth man . . . JOHN LUCAS III is here as a Plan B at the point and to help mentor Burke a bit . . . IAN CLARK won't see a lot of action as a rookie, but he can play either guard spot. FORWARDS: DERRICK FAVORS will run into foul trouble, but he will be a nightly double-double threat and rim protector . . . GORDON HAYWARD becomes Utah's No. 1 option on offense. He'll struggle to create his own shot with defenses focusing on him, but he is a knock-down, three-point shooter who's improving off the dribble . . . MARVIN WILLIAMS is coming off heel surgery and will miss at least the first month of the season. He's not a part of Utah's long-term plans, but will likely see minutes due to the team's lack of depth . . . RICHARD JEFFERSON is a player/coach at this point in his career . . . JEREMY EVANS will be brainstorming for the dunk contest. CENTERS: ENES KANTER is a major upgrade over Al Jefferson as a defender and in the team concept on offense. He immediately becomes one of the league's better starting centers . . . ANDRIS BIEDRINS at least has a chance to reestablish himself as a capable back-up . . . RUDY GOBERT has freakish size, but he's a major project who is nowhere near ready to contribute. |

*Nuggets-Jazz Preview* ======================
By ALAN FERGUSON STATS Writer
Denver (19-17) at Utah (12-26), 9:00 p.m. EDT
Since returning to the starting lineup, Randy Foye has become one of the leading drivers of the Denver Nuggets' growing win streak.
The point guard's past three games have been his best of the season and he'll try for another high-scoring performance Monday night against his former team, the Utah Jazz.
Foye is averaging a team-best 18.4 points during Denver's five-game win streak to help the Nuggets (19-17) post 119.6 per contest - 17.0 better than their season average. He was averaging 8.9 points in his first 31 games with the team and was held out of the starting lineup for three games from Dec. 27-30 after scoring one point and missing all 12 shots in the previous two contests.
Foye has been particularly hot in Denver's past three wins, averaging 21.7 points while hitting 16 of 29 shots from 3-point range (55.2 percent).
He tied for the team scoring lead with 18 points in 30 minutes in Saturday's 120-94 rout of Orlando. Evan Fournier had 18 off the bench and was among seven Denver players in double figures.
"We're treating each game like it's the playoffs. Every guy is coming in getting extra shots up and watching more film," guard Nate Robinson told the team's website. "That's going to help us get through the season. Guys are playing better and we are having fun sharing the ball.
"When basketball is fun, you will be surprised at what you can do. It's just magical."
Foye's former club was without its leading scorer, Gordon Hayward, for Friday's 113-102 loss to Cleveland, which snapped a four-game home win streak for the Jazz (12-26).
Hayward sat out with a muscle strain in his left hip flexor after averaging 27.0 points in the previous three games - including a career-high 37 in a win over Oklahoma City on Tuesday. Hayward, who averages 17.1 points, will be a game-time decision against Denver.
Alec Burks had 16 points and five rebounds while starting in Hayward's place Friday, and Richard Jefferson had a team-best 18.
"We need all of our pieces, and Gordon is a big part of what we're doing," coach Tyrone Corbin said.
Hayward had 30 points and a career-best 13 rebounds in a 103-93 road win over Denver on Dec. 13. He scored a team-best 22 when the Nuggets visited Salt Lake City on Nov. 11, but Utah suffered a 100-81 loss.
Andre Miller scored nine of his season-high 15 points in the fourth quarter while helping the Nuggets pull away, but is currently excused from the team after yelling at coach Brian Shaw during a 114-102 loss to Philadelphia on Jan. 1.
Denver was also without Wilson Chandler (groin) and Anthony Randolph (ankle) on Saturday, and Darrell Arthur left in the third quarter with a strained left groin. JaVale McGee (fractured left leg) and Danilo Gallinari (knee) are dealing with more long-term ailments.
Foye averaged 10.8 points and a career-low 2.0 assists in his lone season with Utah in 2012-13. He was acquired by Denver in a three-team deal July 10 and has scored a combined seven points on 3-of-13 shooting in this season's two meetings with his former club.
