The Nuggets suffered a series of blows! Jokic sprained his wrist, Braun sprained his left ankle and was out for 6 weeks. Johnson was also injured.

On November 15, the Nuggets, second in the Western Conference, suffered an injury blow. The Nuggets officially announced that Christian Braun sprained his left ankle in the game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He will be re-examined in six weeks.

The 24-year-old Braun is one of the Nuggets' core starting five. He was injured in the Nuggets' game against the Clippers - with 27.2 seconds left in the first quarter, Braun defended Harden was accidentally injured when his right foot was stepped on by Harden, resulting in a sprained left ankle. He then limped off the field and sat back on the bench for treatment. In the second quarter, Braun insisted on playing through the injury, which aggravated the injury and forced him to exit the game early.

Braun's injury has now been diagnosed as a left ankle sprain and he will be sidelined for at least 6 weeks, which means he suffered a grade two sprain of his left ankle. Clippers reporter Law Murray shared the scene of Braun's injury and said: The Nuggets announced a 6-week truce, and Braun will miss at least 19 games.

In addition to Braun, Jokic suffered a left wrist sprain and is doubtful to play against the Timberwolves tomorrow; Cam Johnson will miss the Timberwolves due to a strained right biceps.

The Nuggets had a record of 9 wins and 2 losses in the first 11 games, ranking second in the Western Conference. Braun started 11 games, averaging 11.4 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3 assists in 29.5 minutes per game, shooting 49.5% from the field, 21.4% from the three-point range and 79.3% from the free throw line.

Braun is the No. 21 pick in the first round of 2022. At the end of October this year, he reached a new five-year $125 million contract with the Nuggets. So far in his career, Braun has been playing for the Nuggets and won the championship with the team in the 2022-23 season.
