With Cameron Johnson (ankle) sidelined, Bryce Hopkins got the starting nod in his place. However, he only played 19 minutes to Brazile’s 28, which led all reserves. Brazile wasn’t able to get much offense going in his debut, but he was able to knock down some big shots in this game, which included seven of Denver’s 15 points in overtime. The second-round pick is quickly looking like one of the better value picks from the summer, and he should be an important piece for Denver this season, though fantasy managers should exercise caution before adding the rookie. This level of production may not continue consistently. However, he absolutely deserves praise for his immediate production.
