Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Expected to miss next three games
Nikola Jokic (wrist) is expected to miss at least the next three games, Chris Dempsey of The Denver Post reports.
Analysis:
Jokic will sit out Saturday for the second time in as many nights, and according to head coach Mike Malone, he will miss at least two more contests as well. Juan Hernangomez and Darrell Arthur are next in line at the big man spots in Jokic's absence, but based on Friday's game, the Nuggets could opt to play more wing players depending on matchups.
