Randy Foye: Has Torn Quad, Out Three Weeks
Foye has a tear in his right quad and will miss at least three weeks, Chris Dempsey of the Denver Post reports.
Analysis:
After playing only 11 minutes Sunday against the Lakers, Foye underwent an MRI on Monday that revealed the tear, and he'll be shut down for a three-week recovery period, after which he'll be re-evaluated. In his absence, the Nuggets will lean more heavily on Arron Afflalo and Ty Lawson offensively, while Nate Robinson will take on a more significant role off the bench. Foye is averaging 8.4 points per game on 37.5 percent shooting this season.
