Fantasy Impact: Caldwell-Pope is a solid role player that hasn't been as effective recently, but he has averaged 32 minutes per game this series. Teammates Jamal Murray and Reggie Jackson are also listed as questionable, so it looks like the Nuggets may need to go further into their rotation to fill in valuable minutes provided by KCP and his other questionable teammates. Christian Braun and Justin Holiday may see increased minutes if KCP or either one of his teammates misses Game 3.

Reggie Jackson (left calf contusion) has been listed as questionable for Game 3 in the Western Conference semifinals versus the Timberwolves. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Jackson was injured early in the fourth quarter and immediately went back to the locker room and did not return. Before his injury, Jackson didn't make much of an impact, scoring only three points. However, with Jamal Murray and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope also questionable, Jackson's injury is worth monitoring as the Nuggets could go into Game 3 shorthanded in the backcourt.
