Kenneth Faried

Nuggets say Kenneth Faried (back), Emmanuel Mudiay (ankle) both questionable for Tuesday

Denver Nuggets forward/center Kenneth Faried (back) and point guard Emmanuel Mudiay (ankle) are being listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Dallas Mavericks.

What It Means:

Faried sat out on Sunday while Mudiay was able to turn in 24 minutes of work on a bum ankle. With Denver eliminated from the postseason, it wouldn't be surprising to see Faried held out again. If so, Wilson Chandler will be in line for another start while Mason Plumlee should benefit from more opportunity off the bench.

For the month of April, Chandler has averaged 15.4 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.0 3-pointers over five games (one start). He's tied for second on the Nuggets with 31.2 minutes played per game this season, but his -2.1 nERD is fourth-worst on the roster.
