Mark D. Smith-USA TODAY Sports

Denver Nuggets small forward Wilson Chandler did not return to Sunday's contest against the Boston Celtics after experiencing left hamstring tightness.

There is currently no timetable for his return to action.

Chandler played well prior to the injury, finishing with 22 points, five rebounds, two assists, one steal, and a plus-25 rating in Denver's 123-107 victory.

Injuries have slowed Chandler throughout his career, as he missed 203 games between 2011-16. He missed the entire 2016-17 campaign after undergoing hip surgery.

The 29-year-old is averaging 14.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 0.6 assists on 46 percent shooting across five games this season.
