Jordan Hamilton filled the stat sheet in 28 minutes against the Raptors on Tuesday, scoring seven points with five boards, two assists, two steals, two blocks and one 3-pointer on 3-of-10 shooting.
His two blocks and steals were both season highs and the Nuggets needed him with Andre Iguodala, Danilo Gallinari and Wilson Chandler all out of the lineup. Chances are that at least one of those three players will be back on Wednesday, so Hamilton can be left on the waiver wire in almost all leagues. Feb 12 - 9:45 PM

The NBA fined Jordan Hamilton $25,000 for cursing at fans in Los Angeles.

The incident occurred in the fourth quarter on Tuesday and the TV microphones picked it up clearly. He will not be suspended and this has no impact on his insignificant fantasy value.

Jordan Hamilton lit up the Kings for 15 points in just 20 minutes on Sunday, adding four rebounds, two turnovers and one steal in the Nuggets' easy road victory.

Jordan didn't do anything spectacular -- he just made a variety of wide open shots against shoddy defense. He was averaging 3.0 points in his previous four games and has been racking up DNP-CDs lately, which is all fantasy owners need to know.

Jordan Hamilton - F - Nuggets

Jordan Hamilton started in place of injured Danilo Gallinari (ankle) on Wednesday and had four points and six rebounds in 13 minutes.

Corey Brewer had eight points and six boards in 27 minutes, while Wilson Chandler added five points and three rebounds in 20 minutes. When Gallinari returns, it's hard to imagine these guys having fantasy value.

Jordan Hamilton - F - Nuggets

Jordan Hamilton celebrated the Nuggets picking up his contract option with a shooting-fest on Friday, going 6-of-17 from the field for 15 points with 10 rebounds and a 3-point bucket.

Hamilton saw 27 minutes off the bench as the starters mostly rested (including Andre Iguodala), and this will likely be the most we see out of him this season as long as the Nuggets remain upright.

Jordan Hamilton - F - Nuggets

The Nuggets picked up the third year option on forward Jordan Hamilton.

Hamilton comes cheap and has shown enough to last another year, but one has to think that he will have to make some strides toward becoming a more complete player if he is going to stick around after that.

The Nuggets want Jordan Hamilton to work on his defense and rebounding.

Hamilton's scoring ability has never been in question--it's the other elements of his game that have prevented him from seeing consistent minutes in the NBA. If he becomes a more complete player, George Karl should have an easier time trusting him in the rotation. However, the Nuggets are stacked on the wing, so Hamilton isn't likely to be relevant to fantasy owners.

Jordan Hamilton - F - Nuggets

Jordan Hamilton said he is focusing on showing his "all-around game."

Hamilton, known primarily as a scorer, wants to shed that label. "I feel I'm a lot more than that," he said. Averaging 19 points and nearly seven rebounds in summer league to date, Hamilton has lost 19 lbs. this summer and is now down to 220 lbs. "I just want to get faster and quicker," he said. Hamilton will have an uphill climb to establish himself as a consistent member of the rotation, but he's trending in the right direction.

Jordan Hamilton - F - Nuggets

The Nuggets were pleased with Jordan Hamilton's offense as a rookie, but want him to improve his defense this summer.

Hamilton, who averaged 4.4 points and 2.3 rebounds in 26 games, has already returned to full-scale workouts and seems eager to earn more minutes. It's not outside the realm of possibility, especially if the Nuggets don't retain restricted FA Rudy Fernandez.

George Karl praised Jordan Hamilton's play for how he adjusted to a starting role.

"He did what we thought he could do," Karl said. The head coach said that Hamilton has made a lot of progress since January, but he's not on the fantasy radar with Danilo Gallinari (thumb) expected back on Monday.

Jordan Hamilton scored 11 points on 5-of-9 shooting (including a three) with five rebounds and two assists in 17 minutes on Friday against the Suns.

The per-minute numbers here are great, but the fantasy discussion with Hamilton will be short-lived with Danilo Gallinari returning as soon as Monday.

Jordan Hamilton will start at small forward in Friday's game against the Suns.

Corey Brewer is struggling and the two will split time tonight initially, with George Karl going with production and game flow after that. Both players are safe for deep leagues only tonight.

With Danilo Gallinari (thumb) and Wilson Chandler (groin) nursing injuries, Jordan Hamilton may get the start on Friday night against the Suns.

Hamilton was running with the first team at Nuggets shootaround on Friday, but even if he does start he will likely share time with Corey Brewer, making both of them risky plays in fantasy lineups. We'd stay away if possible.

Rookie Jordan Hamilton came off the bench for 18 points, seven rebounds and four 3-pointers (all career highs) on 6-of-11 shooting in Wednesday's loss.

With the Nuggets missing several key players, Hamilton was turned loose by George Karl tonight, and responded with a great line. There's no reason to add him after the big line, but he should at least be put on fantasy radar screens going forward.
