Billups, Chauncey (Den)
Latest News:
02.27.10
Chauncey Billups had a game-high 25 points (6-11 FG, 11-11 FT, 2-5 3Pt) in Denver's win over Detroit on Friday night.
Impact:
The scoring was nice and Billups seems to be in a nice rhythm lately, having hit 35 of his last 56 shots from the field (62.5%), including 13 of his last 22 three-pointers. That said, the rest of his Friday boxscore was disappointing: two rebounds, two assists, zero steals and four turnovers.
02.25.10
Chauncey Billups exploded for 37 points (13-for-19 FG, 5-for-5 FT) with nine assists, six treys, six boards and a steal against the Hornets on Thursday night.
Impact:
The caveat is that this came against the Hornets, and everyone explodes against the Hornets. That said, Billups has been playing great for the past month and is quietly one of the most productive fantasy guards around right now.
02.21.10
Chauncey Billups had a game-high 26 points during the Nuggets' defeat of the Celtics at Denver on Sunday.
Impact:
Billups again proved why he's one of the best clutch performers in the game hitting 7-of-11 FGs (2-of-4 from downtown) and all ten of his free throws. Mr. Big Shot also dished out seven assists, grabbed four boards, and blocked a shot during his 33 minutes on the court.
02.19.10
Chauncey Billups led all scorers with 28 points (9-of-15 FG, 3-of-3 3PT, 7-of-7 FG), three boards, two assists and a steal in Friday's loss to the Wizards.
Impact:
A stellar overall performance for Billups, as he continues to improve upon his highest season scoring average to date, at 19.5 PPG.
02.18.10
Chauncey Billups (ankles) said he feels as good as he has all season and will definitely be in the starting lineup on Thursday night against the Cavs, the Denver Post reports.
Impact:
Billups was struggling with two sprained ankles prior to the break but all signs point to him being fully recovered and ready to go. Keep him in your lineups.
02.10.10
Chauncey Billups is expected to play his second straight game Thursday against the Spurs.
Impact:
Billups returned from his ankle sprains on Tuesday and seemed to be moving around comfortably, so there's no reason to think he won't be ready to go for Denver's last game before the All-Star break.
02.09.10
Chauncey Billups (ankles) is expected to play Tuesday against Dallas despite sprains to both of his ankles, the Denver Post reports.
Impact:
Billups was held out of Saturday's loss to Utah due to his right ankle sprain and missed practice on Monday, but all signs point to him playing on Tuesday. You should check back closer to game time just to make sure he didn't have any setbacks in pre-game warm-ups.
02.06.10
Chauncey Billups (ankle) will miss the Nuggets' game against the Jazz on Saturday with a sprained right ankle that he suffered in Friday's win over the Lakers, the Jazz' official site reports.
Impact:
Billups suffered the right ankle sprain in the third quarter of Friday's win. He forced himself to continue playing on it and was able to tally a career-high 39 points in the win. Check his status on Sunday before setting weekly lineups.
02.05.10
Chauncey Billups torched the Lakers for a career-high 39 points Friday. He drained 12 of his 20 shot attempts, including a dominant 9-of-13 from three-point range.
Impact:
Billups threw in eight assists, four rebounds and a steal to round out his stat line. With Carmelo Anthony still out, Billups hoisted the Nuggets onto his back in this one and carried them to victory in an important Western Conference showdown. Anthony seems unlikely to play again Saturday, so Billups may again handle the bulk of the scoring duties.
02.03.10
Chauncey Billups (ankle) had 11 points (5-of-14 FG, 1-of-3 3Pt), four assists, a rebound and a steal in Wednesday's loss to Phoenix.
Impact:
The All-Star replacement for the injured Chris Paul didn't really have his shot working on Wednesday, but the ankle injury that forced him from the morning shootaround didn't seem to be a problem. Despite Wednesday's mediocre shooting, Billups is on pace to set a new career high in scoring average (19.4 ppg).
02.03.10
Chauncey Billups should be able to play on Wednesday against the Suns despite leaving the morning shootaround with his ankle wrapped up in ice, the Denver Post reports.
Impact:
Billups said that the injury is just soreness, so it shouldn't impact his availability against Phoenix on Wednesday night. It sounds like there's a chance that the Nuggets will be without Carmelo Anthony again after he missed the team's morning workout.
02.01.10
Chauncey Billups scored 23 points, handed out nine assists and committed just two turnovers in the Nuggets' overtime win against the Kings on Monday.
Impact:
However, Billups shot a horrific 6-of-25 from the field (24.0 percent), although he did add three 3-pointers and went 8-of-9 from the line as well.
01.31.10
Chauncey Billups put up 25 points, dealt 11 assists and grabbed six rebounds in the Nuggets' win over the Spurs on Sunday.
Impact:
Billups helped pick up the slack in Denver's offense with the NBA's leading scorer, Carmelo Anthony, missing his fourth straight game, recording his fourth double-double of the season.
01.29.10
Chauncey Billups finished with 19 points (4-of-8 FG, 9-of-9 FT), seven assists, five rebounds, and two steals in Friday's loss to the Thunder. He also committed six turnovers.
Impact:
Billups is on an absolute tear in the month of January, and while the turnovers should be monitored (11 in his past two), his overall stellar play more than offsets them right now.
01.25.10
Chauncey Billups had 27 points, six rebounds and 11 assists during Denver's win Monday.
Impact:
Billups went 7-of-15 from the field and 12-of-13 from the line, also adding a 3-pointer and a steal. J.R. Smith, meanwhile, scored 12 points with six rebounds and three assists during 28 minutes off the bench after he averaged just 3.0 ppg over the past two contests.
01.24.10
Chauncey Billups posted 20 points (6-14 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), nine assists and five rebounds during Denver's win over New Orleans on Saturday night.
Impact:
Another solid game for Billups, who played 43 minutes in the overtime game.
01.22.10
Chauncey Billups scored 20 points on Thursday as the Nuggets dispatched the Clippers 105-85.
Impact:
He scored 20 thanks in large part to stellar shooting from beyond the arc (4-of-6) and from the charity stripe (6-of-6). He's averaging over 25 points a game in the month of January.
01.20.10
Chauncey Billups poured in 37 points on 11-of-19 shooting, including six three-pointers, in Wednesday's overtime victory over the Warriors. He added eight rebounds and eight assists.
Impact:
Billups has been scorching since returning from a groin injury, averaging 26.3 points in six games (the Nuggets are 5-1 in that span). He scored the first eight points of overtime on Wednesday, setting the stage for Denver's win.
01.18.10
Chauncey Billups posted 29 points on 5-of-13 FGs and 17-of-19 FTs during Denver's win over Utah on Sunday night.
Impact:
It was a solid night for Billups who spent a good portion of his court time at SG while rookie Ty Lawson manned the point. Head coach George Karl said he was going to continue to test that combination so you may see a significant bump in his scoring numbers but his assists are likely to suffer. For the record, he also added five rebounds, four assists and two steals, while only turning the ball over once.
01.12.10
Chauncey Billups posted 18 points, 10 assists, three rebounds and two steals during Denver's win over Minnesota on Monday night.
Impact:
Billups was back in point guard mode with the return of Carmelo Anthony to the lineup. It was only the third time all year Billups has posted double figures in assists. He finished just 4-of-11 from the field (2-of-7 3pt) and 8-of-9 from the line with one turnover in 33 minutes.
