Nuggets' Mason Plumlee: Posts double-double in Wednesday's start

Plumlee posted 19 points (7-13 FG, 5-7 FT) with 10 rebounds, five assists and a steal over 31 minutes in Wednesday's 123-113 loss against the Wizards.

Analysis:

Plumlee made another start with Nikola Jokic (illness) and Kenneth Faried (back) on the shelf. He has back-to-back double-doubles, averaging 14.5 points, 11.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.0 steals per game. It's his most productive stretch since coming over from the Trail Blazers. He remains useful only in deeper leagues, however, as his playing time and production will be curtailed once Faried and Jokic are healthy enough to return.
