Soobum Im / USA TODAY Sports
After leaving Saturday night's contest on a stretcher, Denver Nuggets power forward Kenneth Faried has been released from hospital and is questionable to play Sunday, according to Yahoo Sports' Marc J. Spears.
Faried posted an Instagram picture earlier in the day stating that he was doing well, after speculation surfaced that the injury could be quite serious.
Faried is averaging 12.6 points and nine rebounds, and shooting 55 percent from the floor in 2015-16.
If he sits, Darrell Arthur should enter the starting five in his absence.
The Nuggets face the Portland Trail Blazers tonight at the Pepsi Center as they attempt to snap a five-game losing streak.
