Tyson (finger) played four minutes in Wednesday's 117-96 win over the Kings, finishing with three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and two rebounds.
Back in action after missing the last five games with a finger fracture and sprain, Tyson was out of head coach Michael Malone's rotation while the game was competitive, as he didn't leave the bench until the Nuggets held a 22-point lead with 3:34 remaining in the fourth quarter. Tyson could link up with the G League's Grand Rapids Gold in the coming days if his playing time with the Nuggets remains scarce.

Nuggets' Hunter Tyson: Remains out Wednesday
Rotowire
Tyson (finger) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Kings.
Tyson will be sidelined for a second straight game to close out the Nuggets' first-half schedule due to what the team is listing as a left finger sprain/fracture. The rookie second-round pick has made just nine appearances for the Nuggets this season, but with Jamal Murray (tibias) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) listed as questionable but considered unlikely to play against Sacramento, Tyson may have had a chance to pick up some minutes Wednesday if he was healthy.

Nuggets' Hunter Tyson: Sits out with finger fracture
Rotowire
Tyson was ruled out ahead of Monday's 112-95 loss to the Bucks due to a left finger sprain/fracture.
Tyson had been playing for the G League's Grand Rapids Gold prior to being recalled Monday, so he presumably sustained the injury in a recent game or practice with the Nuggets' affiliate. Even if he's cleared to play in Wednesday's game against the Kings, the rookie second-round pick is unlikely to be included in head coach Michael Malone's rotation.
