Nuggets' Paul Millsap reportedly to undergo wrist surgery, out indefinitely

Nuggets power forward Paul Millsap is expected to undergo wrist surgery, and will be sidelined indefinitely, according to The Vertical.

Millsap, 32, signed a two-year, $61 million deal this offseason, with a $30 million option for the 2019-2020 season. He originally injured his wrist Sunday against the Lakers.

The four-time All-Star averaged 15.3 points and 6.2 rebounds per game this season before his injury. Millsap was added to bring more muscle and rebounding prowess to Denver's guard-heavy lineup, but his injury will force Kenneth Faried back into the starting lineup.

The Nuggets (10-7) have won five of their last seven games with Nikola Jokic leading the team in scoring at 15.6 points per game.
