Nuggets' Jameer Nelson: Questionable to play Tuesday

Nelson (abdomen) is listed as questionable to play Tuesday against the Kings, Harrison Wind of BSN Denver reports.

Analysis:

Nelson was battling an abdominal strain heading into Monday's game against the Warriors, but he was ultimately cleared to play and saw 17 minutes off the bench, finishing with five points, four assists and four turnovers. The veteran will wait until after pregame warmups to decide whether or not he'll take the court Tuesday, but it's possible the Nuggets are just listing him on the injury report for precautionary purposes. In the event Nelson is held out though, Emmanuel Mudiay may take on an even larger workload as the starting point guard, with Jamal Murray filling in the minutes behind him.
