Denver Nuggets swingman Peyton Watson will be re-evaluated in four weeks as he recovers from a strained right hamstring, the team announced on Friday.
Watson, 23, sustained the injury during Denver’s 134-127 double-overtime loss to the New York Knicks on Wednesday.
The emerging star is averaging 14.9 points and 4.9 rebounds in 49 games (39 starts) this season.
Watson has contributed 8.6 points and 3.5 rebounds in 220 career games (63 starts) since being selected by the Oklahoma City Thunder with the 30th overall pick of the 2022 NBA Draft. He promptly was traded to the Nuggets in a draft-night deal.
