Denver Nuggets vs Houston Rockets Injury Report Revealed

Both teams look relatively healthy.

After a disappointing loss against the LA Clippers on Wednesday night, the Denver Nuggets look to bounce back against the Houston Rockets tonight. Both teams are relatively healthy for this one, too.

The Denver Nuggets have five players listed on their injury report: Vlatko Cancar, Collin Gillespie, Jay Huff, Braxton Key, and Jamal Murray. Vlatko Cancar is out due to left knee surgery. Collin Gillespie, Jay Huff, and Braxton Key are all out due to a G League two-way. Jamal Murray is probable due to a right ankle sprain. One should expect Jamal Murray to play alongside Nikola Jokic, Aaron Gordon, Michael Porter Jr., and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope tonight.

The Houston Rockets have six players listed on their injury report: Nate Hinton, Jock Landale, Victor Oladipo, Jermaine Samuels Jr., Amen Thompson, and Cam Whitmore. Nate Hinton, Jermaine Samuels Jr., Amen Thompson, and Cam Whitmore are all out due to being in the G League. Jock Landale is out due to an illness, and Victor Oladipo is out due to left patellar tendon repair.

Facing the Rockets has the potential to be a perfect bounce-back win for the Denver Nuggets. Houston has lost three of its last four games, winning their most recent game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Before losing to the Clippers and Kings, the Denver Nuggets were in the midst of a four-game winning streak and need to get back on that track themselves.

The Denver Nuggets and Houston Rockets face off tonight at 9:00 p.m. EST.
