What It Means:

"It's back spasms," Mudiay said about his injury. "It's my first time, that's why I don't know how to handle it." He's progressing in his rehab, but doesn't have a return date set. With Mudiay sidelined, Jameer Nelson becomes a solid short-term pickup and Jamal Murray could be worth a look in deeper formats.

Mudiay's -5.8 nERD is tied for third-worst in the NBA this season. He's averaging 11.8 points, 4.2 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.1 3-pointers per game, but making just 36.9 percent of his shots from the field -- including 30.8 percent from deep. His 21.7 percent assist rate is a steep drop from last year's 29.0 percent clip.
