AutoDraft Pro AI

Nuggets forward Cameron Johnson will be reevaluated in 4-to-6 weeks after suffering a bone bruise and hyperextended right knee. He was diagnosed with a right knee contusion following the team's loss to the Mavericks on Tuesday. This timeline means Johnson is not expected to return until late January at the earliest. Tim Hardaway, Bruce Brown, Peyton Watson, and Julian Strawther are expected to see increased roles during his absence.
