Paul Millsap (wrist) expected to return in 1-to-2 weeks for Denver

Denver Nuggets forward Paul Millsap (wrist) is expected to return to action in one-to-two weeks, per head coach Mike Malone.

What It Means:

Millsap has been out since November 19 with a torn ligament in his left wrist. The power forward is poised to return in the first week of March as he tries to get back in game shape as the Nuggets gear up for a possible playoff appearance. Wilson Chandler and Mason Plumlee will see reduced minutes with Millsap again in action.

Millsap is projected by our models for 17.8 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.1 steals, and 1.6 blocks per game the rest of the season.
