Injuries

Sacramento Kings

The injury bug has nabbed the Kings in recent games.  Both Rudy Gay and Arron Afflalo continue to be listed as questionable.  Rudy Gay has missed the last 2 games and 8 of the last 9 contests with a hip injury.  Afflalo has missed 3 straight games with an elbow sprain.  There have been no positive signs that either player will suit up for tonight’s game as of this writing.

Last time out, Ty Lawson was injured against the Memphis Grizzlies.  Lawson suffered a maxillary sinus fracture and is also listed as questionable.  If my face was broken a mere 3 days ago, I probably would not be suiting up for an NBA game.

Denver Nuggets

The Nuggets played on Monday, so their injury report could change rapidly as tipoff approaches.  Both Kenneth Faried and Darrell Arthur missed Monday’s game.  Both injuries appear minor and could allow both players to suit up for tonight’s contest.
