Nuggets coach Michael Malone said he’s not worried that Emmanuel Mudiay’s sore back is a serious injury.
Mudiay missed his third consecutive game Thursday night, when the Nuggets faced the Phoenix Suns at the Pepsi Center. His ailing back had been an issue for him to varying degrees before he missed any games because of the injury.
“In talking to him (Wednesday) night, talking to our medical guys, I don’t think it’s a long thing,” Nuggets coach Michael Malone said. “The treatment he’s been getting has been helping him, and all of the results from the testing coming back don’t show that there’s anything serious.
