Nuggets' Kenneth Faried: To remain sidelined Tuesday

Faried (back) won't play during Tuesday's game against the Kings, Harrison Wind of BSN Denver reports.

Analysis:

It was recently reported that Faried was unlikely to play, so this is merely a confirmation that he'll remain sidelined Tuesday. With his lower back injury being listed as soreness, it shouldn't result in an extended absence for Faried, but for now, consider him questionable for Thursday's game against the Spurs. Jusuf Nurkic and Darrell Arthur could pick up some added minutes off the bench with Faried unavailable.
