Injury Report: Denver Nuggets vs New Orleans Pelicans

Both teams will be missing some key players.

The Denver Nuggets and New Orleans Pelicans face off in a game where both teams will be missing some key players. Fortunately, both teams will have their best players available.

The Nuggets have four players listed on their injury report: Vlatko Cancar, Jay Huff, Jamal Murray, and Hunter Tyson. Vlatko Cancar is out due to left knee surgery, Jay Huff is out due to a G League two-way, Jamal Murray is out due to a right hamstring strain, and Hunter Tyson is out due to a G League assignment. Jamal Murray will be out for an extended period of time.

The New Orleans Pelicans have five players listed on their injury report: Jose Alvarado, E.J. Liddell, CJ McCollum, Trey Murphy III, and Larry Nance Jr. Jose Alvarado is doubtful due to a right ankle sprain, E.J. Liddell is out due to a G League assignment, CJ McCollum is out due to a collapsed lung, Trey Murphy III is out due to a partial meniscectomy in his left knee, and Larry Nance Jr is out due to a right rib fracture.

Both teams should be on a very equal playing ground tonight - Jamal Murray will be missing from the Nuggets and the Pelicans will be missing CJ McCollum. Despite that, Denver should still have the advantage by having the best player on the court - Nikola Jokic.
