Nelson will head into the All-Star break nursing an Achilles injury.

Analysis:

Nelson missed the final four games leading up to the All-Star break but should benefit from the 10 days rest that the Nuggets will get before their next game on Feb. 20 against the Bucks. Perhaps more importantly, the aging veteran has a backup role in Denver and provides limited value behind Ty Lawson.
