Utah Jazz forward Ed Davis will miss the team's first-round series against the Denver Nuggets due to a left MCL injury, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Davis will be re-evaluated in a few weeks.
The big man missed several games before the NBA hiatus with an ankle injury and appeared to hurt his knee in Thursday's win over the San Antonio Spurs.
Davis' absence is another blow to Utah's depth ahead of the playoffs. The Jazz are without second-leading scorer Bojan Bogdanovic and announced Sunday that point guard Mike Conley will be away from the team for a reported three games to attend the birth of his child.
