Nuggets' Emmanuel Mudiay: Leaves Saturday's game, won't return

Mudiay departed Saturday's game against the Clippers due to lower-back soreness and won't return, Chris Dempsey of The Denver Post reports.

Analysis:

Mudiay showed up on the injury report heading into Saturday with the same injury, but was listed as probable and received the green light to play after taking part in pregame warmups. However, it appears as though he suffered some sort of aggravation, so the Nuggets will keep him on the bench for the rest of the evening. Mudiay finishes with three points (0-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three assists and two rebounds across 17 minutes, ending a streak of three straight games with double-digit scoring.
