Kenneth Faried: Ruled out vs. Cavs
Faried (back) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup with the Cavaliers, Chris Dempsey of The Denver Post reports.
Analysis:
It will be the third straight absence for Faried, who continues to battle soreness in his back. Darrell Arthur entered the starting lineup alongside Nikola Jokic in Faried's place Saturday against the Hornets, and that will likely again be the case Monday night. Faried's next chance to return will come Wednesday when the Nuggets return home to host the 76ers.
