Jokic Upgraded Probable; Rockets Face Full-Strength Nuggets

Nikola Jokic is listed as probable to play against the Houston Rockets following an upgrade from his injury status. The Denver Nuggets will field a full-strength lineup with only Julian Strawther ruled out, while six players improved their chances after being questionable previously.

Houston's roster remains unchanged ahead of Tuesday night at Toyota Center in Texas. Clint Capela and Steven Adams are still out for the Rockets as they attempt to end a two-game losing streak against Denver (5-3).

Jokic has been performing strongly despite his right elbow sprain, recently recording 19 points, 13 rebounds, and eight assists over 36 minutes. His availability places significant responsibility on Alperen Sengun as the sole center option for Houston.
