Thu Feb 26 201514:55Chandler (thigh) targeting return Friday against Jazz
Chandler (thigh) is targeting a return Friday against the Jazz, the Denver Post reports.
Chandler has sat out the last two games with soreness in his thigh and groin, but he downplayed the issue Thursday, stating he's only dealing with a light strain. At this point, he's on track to return Friday, though the team will wait to see how he feels during morning shootaround before making an official decision.
Wed Feb 25 201520:51Chandler (thigh) won't play Wednesday against Suns
Chandler (thigh) won't play Wednesday against the Suns, the Arizona Republic reports.
Chandler was doubtful entering the contest, so it's no surprise he's missing his second game in a row due to a sore left adductor. In his place, Danilo Gallinari will move over to small forward, while Gary Harris enters the starting lineup at two-guard. As Friday's game against the Jazz approaches, consider Chandler highly questionable.

Chandler (thigh) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Suns, Chris Dempsey of the Denver Post reports.
Chandler is battling soreness in his left adductors, and he's on track to miss his second straight game after sitting out Monday's loss to Brooklyn. Gary Harris entered the starting lineup Monday, finishing with six points and 10 assists, and it remains to be seen whether coach Brian Shaw will stick with that lineup Wednesday night.
Mon Feb 23 201519:33Chandler (thigh) will not play Monday against Nets
Chandler (thigh) will not play Monday against the Nets, Tim Bontemps of the New York Post reports.
Chandler emerged from Sunday's loss to Oklahoma City with soreness in his thigh, and he'll be held out Monday night. That means Danilo Gallinari could see some extra minutes, as well as Gary Harris and recent-acquisition Will Barton.
Mon Feb 23 201513:38Wilson Chandler: (Thigh) Questionable Monday
Chandler is dealing with left adductors soreness and is questionable for Monday's game against the Nets, the Denver Post's Chris Dempsey reports.
If Chandler is unable to play, rookie Gary Harris could be asked to take on a bigger role, with Danilo Gallinari possibly sliding over to start at the three. Continue to monitor his status leading up to tip-off.

Chandler scored 23 points (9-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT) with two assists and a steal in 35 minutes during Monday's loss to the Thunder.
He wasn't his usual productive self on the glass, picking up just a single rebound, but it was Chandler's best scoring performance since before Christmas. With the Nuggets falling rapidly out of the playoff picture, Chandler could find himself on the move at the trade deadline.
Tue Feb 3 201521:48Chandler scored 19 points (7-15 FG, 5-10 3Pt) with six rebounds,...
Chandler scored 19 points (7-15 FG, 5-10 3Pt) with six rebounds, two assists and a steal in 26 minutes during Tuesday's loss to the 76ers.
He'd been coming up a little dry in the three-pointer department in January, averaging just 1.4 threes per game last month, but Chandler started February out with a bang from long range. As long as he can stay healthy, his strong rebounding should allow him to remain a little more valuable than other three-point specialists.
Tue Jan 27 201501:20Chandler scored 18 points (7-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT) with 10 reb...
Chandler scored 18 points (7-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT) with 10 rebounds, two assists and a steal in 35 minutes during Monday's loss to the Clippers.
He did most of his damage in the first quarter, but got held in check by Matt Barnes the rest of the way. Since missing a game earlier in the month with a minor knee injury, Chandler's averaging 13.6 points, 6.5 boards and 1.8 threes over eight contests.
Fri Jan 16 201523:16Chandler started second game after missing last Friday's game wi...
Chandler started his second game after missing last Friday's game with a knee strain, scoring 10 points (4-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt) and grabbing six rebounds in 40 minutes in a loss to the Mavericks.
If nothing else, Chandler is at least a volume shooter who will score on a daily basis. He's averaging 14.2 points per game, his most since the 2010-11 season, and is attempting an average of 12.7 shots per game.
Thu Jan 15 201505:13Chandler (knee) posted solid all-around line Wednesday against M...
Chandler (knee) posted a solid all-around line Wednesday against the Mavericks, adding 15 points, 10 rebounds, and six assists in 39 minutes of action.
Chandler suffered a right knee strain last week, but it appears he isn't bothered too much by it. For now, he should be good to go moving forward, and he'll continue to produce low-end standard league value as a result.
Tue Jan 13 201517:07Chandler (knee) practiced fully Monday and Tuesday and will play...
Chandler (knee) practiced fully Monday and Tuesday and will play in Wednesday's game against the Mavericks, the Denver Post's Chris Dempsey reports.
He missed one game with the knee strain, but after some time off, he will be ready to be deployed again as usual in fantasy leagues.
Fri Jan 9 201521:04Wilson Chandler: (Knee Strain) Out Friday
Chandler will miss Friday's game due to a right knee strain, the Denver Post's Chris Dempsey reports.
This was a late scratch that came through about an hour before tip-off, so owners may not have had a quality backup plan available. Denver does not have much depth on the wing, but Alonzo Gee and Gary Harris should both see added run with Chandler out.

Chandler (quad) wasn't held back Thursday in a loss to the Bulls, scoring 22 points (8-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and picking up two assists and three rebounds in 34 minutes.
Chandler didn't seem to be hampered by the minor injury he sustained in Tuesday's game against the Lakers. He's now scored 20 or more points in three out of his past four games. Chandler has put up solid scoring numbers this year, but hasn't done much to fill up the box score elsewhere. Still, he's an average fantasy option given that he's taking 12.8 shots per game.
Thu Jan 1 201519:07Chandler (quadriceps) will play Thursday against Bulls
Chandler (quadriceps) will play Thursday against the Bulls, the Denver Post reports.
Chandler took a knee to the quad during Tuesday's loss to Los Angeles, but it seems he was fortunate enough to escape with just a bruise. He will be OK to play, and presumably start, against Chicago, but it's always possible Chandler could see fewer than the 31.1 minutes he's averaged to this point.
Wed Dec 31 201400:50Chandler took knee to quad in Tuesday's game and day-to-day
Chandler took a knee to the quad in Tuesday's game and is day-to-day, the Denver Post's Chris Dempsey reports.
He said the muscle was pretty stiff after the game, so he should be considered questionable for Thursday's game in Chicago. He had nine points, two rebounds and one assist in 17 minutes before exiting against the Lakers.

Chandler had a couple shaky games last week, however he bounced back in the last two games. He finished with 20 points (8-20 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-5 FT) 10 rebounds, three assists, and a block in 41 minutes.
His ability to contribute across all categories and the fact that he's getting all the minutes he can handle makes him a must own player. Additionally, with Gallinari sitting out for a month he's a guy who following knee surgery, he's likely to continue being a feature player for the rest of the regular season.
Thu Dec 18 201404:59Chandler sunk five treys en-route to 25-point performance Wednes...
Chandler sunk five treys en-route to a 25-point performance Wednesday against the Rockets. He added six rebounds, one steal, and one block in 35 minutes of action.
Chandler has been excellent over the month of December, averaging 18.1 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.8 steals, and 2.9 three-pointers made per game. He's made the most of Danilo Gallinari's (knee) injury, and it looks like he'll continue starting as the season goes on. Chandler's explosiveness and ability to contribute in multiple categories makes him a must-own player in standard leagues.
Sun Dec 14 201400:36Chandler scored nine points (4-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt) with nine rebound...
Chandler scored nine points (4-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt) with nine rebounds, and two assists in 31 minutes Saturday.
Chandler played through the illness he was suffering, but his shot was off, leading to the subpar line. This is nothing to be concerned about, as Chandler has been performing at an exceptional rate and still needs to be owned in almost all leagues.
Sat Dec 13 201413:30Chandler (illness) will play Saturday
Chandler (illness) will play Saturday, the Denver Post's Chris Dempsey reports.
The illness has apparently been bothering Chandler for the last couple days, but he will play through it, as the Nuggets will need his scoring with Danilo Gallinari and Randy Foye both out of action.
Sat Dec 13 201412:17Chandler has illness
Chandler has an illness, but is probable for Saturday's game against the Rockets, the Houston Chronicle's Jonathan Feigen reports.
This is just something to be aware of, as Chandler is fully expected to take the court, although he may not be feeling 100 percent healthy.
