The Denver Nuggets will be without guard Randy Foye for a little while.
Foye told The Denver Post's Clint Dempsey that he will be out three weeks due to a right quadriceps tear, which was discovered in an MRI on Monday. He logged just under 11 minutes of playing time against the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday.
Foye has averaged 8.4 points, 2.0 assists and 1.4 rebounds in 19 minutes per game so far this season.
Rookie Gary Harris could see additional court time with Foye on the shelf, while Nate Robinson should also see an uptick in minutes given the lack of options behind starting guards Ty Lawson and Arron Afflalo.
