The Nuggets have lost starting power forward Nene’ Hilario indefinately due to personal reasons. He also has had a tumor removed from his body which could have led him to some nervousness. Nene’ has played in only 12 games so far this season and he is averaging 19.8 minutes, 6.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.0 assist and 1.0 blocked shot per game. Kenyon Martin and Eduardo Najera will pick up Nene’s minutes until he’s ready to return.

Blogged under Bloglockers, Big Nuggets News, Injuries, Front Page by Nothing but Net on Wednesday 21 February 2007 at 8:06 pm

J.R. Smith will be out three to four weeks after having knee surgery earlier today.  He has played in 42 games this season and is averaging 15.4 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game.  Smith is the Nuggets best long range shooter as he’s hit 39% from 3-point range.  He is the only player on the Nuggets roster that has hit more than 43 three pointers this season so his absence could really hurt the Nuggets.

Marcus Camby to miss time with broken finger

Blogged under Injuries, Front Page by Nothing but Net on Saturday 23 December 2006 at 2:12 pm

Marcus Camby will miss the next two weeks after breaking a finger on his shooting hand.  Camby has been very injury prone during his career, so it’s not a shock that something like this has happened.  It did, however, happen at the worst time possible for the Nuggets who are already missing alot of players due to suspension.  Camby was averaging 11.7 points, 11.0 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.0 steal and 2.7 blocks per game so far this season.  Nene and Reggie Evans will probably split Camby’s minutes until he can return.
