Denver Nuggets vs Washington Wizards Injury Report Revealed

The Denver Nuggets face off against the Washington Wizards tonight, in a matchup that Denver has a significant advantage.

The Nuggets have only four players listed on their injury report: Vlatko Cancar, Collin Gillespie, Aaron Gordon, and Julian Strawther. Vlatko Cancar is out due to left knee surgery, Collin Gillespie is out due to a G League two-way, Aaron Gordon is probable with a right shoulder sprain, and Julian Strawther is out due to a right knee contusion/sprain. Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, and the rest of the Denver Nuggets starting five lineups should be available tonight.

The Washington Wizards have only one player listed on their injury report - Johnny Davis. Johnny Davis is out due to a G League assignment, so in terms of actual injuries, the Wizards have a clean report.

After winning a massive game against the Boston Celtics on Friday night, the Denver Nuggets are back to only 1.5 games away from the first seed. A win tonight could put them to within only one game from the first seed, and also keep Denver in the same win column as the Nuggets. While some could argue today's game against the Wizards could be a trap game for the Denver Nuggets, others could very much argue that Denver is trying to be back-to-back champions and shouldn't have trap games.

The Denver Nuggets and Washington Wizards face off at 6:00 p.m. EST tonight.
