Nikola Jokic Out for At Least Four Weeks
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic seems to have avoided major injury, but he will still be out for at least a month. After leaving Monday's game against Miami, Jokic was diagnosed with a hyperextension in his left knee. While he will miss at least four weeks, tests show that his knee ligaments are intact. Jokic will be the fourth Nuggets' starter sidelined, since Christian Braun (ankle), Aaron Gordon (hamstring), and Cameron Johnson (knee) are already dealing with injury. Jokic could return towards the end of January or early in February before the All-Star break, although it depends on how his recovery progresses. Jonas Valanciunas will be the primary replacement for Jokic, and the veteran should be a solid contributor for as long as Jokic is out.
