Emmanuel Mudiay

Nuggets' Emmanuel Mudiay (ankle) ruled out on Monday night

Denver Nuggets guard Emmanuel Mudiay will not play versus the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night as he deals with a sprained ankle.

What It Means:

Mudiay left Friday's game versus the New Orleans Pelicans after spraining his right ankle. It's said to not be a severe sprain, but he is unable to go tonight. In his absence, Will Barton will likely take over as the primary backup point guard on Monday.

numberFire's models project Mudiay to average 9.9 points, 2.7 rebounds and 4.3 assists in 24.3 minutes per game over the remainder of the season.
