Jokic Listed with Right Elbow Sprain; All Five Nuggets Starters Questionable vs. Rockets
Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic appeared on the injury report for the first time this season on November 8, diagnosed with a right elbow sprain and listed as questionable for Monday night's road game against the Houston Rockets, tipping off at 8:30 p.m. Eastern on November 9.
Denver is 5-3, and Jokic had played in all eight games so far. On November 7, in the Mexico City game, the Nuggets beat the Indiana Pacers 114-102 with Jokic posting 19 points, 13 rebounds and 8 assists.
The injury list is crowded beyond Jokic: Jamal Murray (left tibia contusion), Christian Braun, Cameron Johnson and Aaron Gordon are all questionable, meaning all five starters could sit; Zeke Strawther is out with a left knee sprain. The coaching staff will decide the starters' availability after pregame warmups.
