Nuggets' Emmanuel Mudiay: Nursing sore back
Mudiay (back) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis:
Mudiay has appeared in three consecutive games following a five-game absence due to lower-back soreness, but it appears as though the issue isn't completely behind him. The Nuggets have been limited Mudiay to a bench role in each of his past three games, so even if he's cleared to play Monday, the second-year point guard isn't a lock to see starter-level minutes.
