Jerami Grant (ankle) officially questionable for Nuggets on Wednesday
Denver Nuggets forward Jerami Grant (right ankle sprain) is questionable to play on Wednesday against the Utah Jazz.
Nuggets head coach Mike Malone previously said Grant was expected to miss Wednesday's game after spraining his ankle during Tuesday's contest. It looks like he will be headed for a game-time decision. Will Barton (knee) is questionable, Michael Porter Jr. (ankle) is doubtful, Mason Plumlee (foot) and Paul Millsap (knee) are out, and Juan Hernangomez and Jarred Vanderbilt were traded away Tuesday night, so the Nuggets may be extremely shorthanded at the forward spot versus the Jazz. Torrey Craig and Vlatko Cancar may both draw starts on Wednesday.
Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the Nuggets-Jazz game has the second-lowest over/under (215.5 points) on Wednesday's nine-game slate. The Nuggets' implied total (103.25 points) is also second-lowest.
