Magic's Nikola Vucevic: Questionable Saturday vs. Nuggets
Vucevic (back) is considered questionable to play Saturday against the Nuggets, Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Analysis:
Vucevic suffered a bruise to his lower back during Friday's loss to Charlotte, limiting him to 23 minutes off the bench. The issue doesn't appear to be overly serious, but the big man is still dealing with some residual soreness and discomfort in the area. As such, he'll receive treatment Saturday afternoon before a decision is made on his status prior to game-time. If Vucevic is held out, Serge Ibaka would likely see increased minutes, as could Bismack Biyombo (questionable -- shoulder), if he plays.
