The Denver Nuggets will be without veteran center Jonas Valanciunas for an extended period after he was diagnosed with a calf strain, the team announced Monday.
The club described the timeline only as “multiple weeks,” marking the latest setback for a roster already dealing with injuries this season. No details were given on when or how the 7-footer sustained the injury.
Valanciunas, in his first season with Denver, has been a key presence in the paint and on the glass. His absence leaves the Nuggets short on size as they navigate a challenging stretch of the schedule.
The team said further updates on Valanciunas’ condition will be provided as he progresses through rehabilitation.
