Nuggets' Cameron Johnson Suffers Knee Sprain, Undergoes MRI After Early Exit

Cameron Johnson sustained a right knee sprain in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's loss to the Mavericks, landing awkwardly and limping off the court. He did not return, finishing with 8 points (3-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), 3 assists, and 2 rebounds in 24 minutes. The Nuggets confirmed the sprain and announced he is scheduled for an MRI. An update on his status for Thursday's game against Minnesota is expected by Wednesday night, with Bruce Brown and Tim Hardaway potentially seeing increased roles. The team is already without Aaron Gordon and Christian Braun.
