Faried will miss Friday's game against the Grizzlies, as he will be attending the birth of his child, Chris Dempsey of the Denver Post reports

Analysis:

Faried is fully over the neck injury he suffered earlier this month, but he'll get the night off Friday, as he'll be attending the birth of his child. It's not expected to force him to miss extended time, so he should be back in the lineup come Sunday's matchup with the Hornets. Darrell Arthur is likely the candidate to see extended minutes in his absence.
