Emmanuel Mudiay: Questionable for Friday's game
Mudiay (ankle) is listed as questionable to play Friday against the Grizzlies, Harrison Wind of BSN Denver reports.
Analysis:
Mudiay was initially on track to make his return from a right ankle sprain Wednesday against the Timberwolves, but the Nuggets ended up scratching him after his ankle was still bothering him during the team's shootaround. The Nuggets will reevaluate Mudiay again after Friday's morning session, and if his ankle checks out fine, he'll likely be given the green light to play. However, since he's missed almost a month due to the injury, Mudiay would likely be brought off the bench in his first game back and receive only limited minutes.
