  "summary": "Yahoo Sports reports that Denver Nuggets wing Julian Strawther will be out indefinitely due to a left knee sprain sustained during a preseason game against the Clippers on Wednesday. The injury occurred when Strawther pivoted with the ball, causing his foot to come out from under him, leading to an awkward bend in his left knee. The 24-year-old averaged 7.2 points per game in the previous season, but with Peyton Watson's departure, Strawther was anticipated to see increased playing time off the bench. The team announced that he will be re-evaluated in six weeks to determine his recovery timeline.",
