Nuggets' Vlatko Cancar: Undergoes arthroscopic knee surgery
Cancar (knee) will be re-evaluated in eight weeks following left knee surgery, Ryan Blackburn of MileHighSports.com reports.
Cancar's injury woes with his left knee continue after initially tearing his ACL last summer while playing for Slovenia. Cancar only appeared in four contests this season, so Denver's current rotation will be unfazed. In the big picture, the 27-year-old wing ascended to 14.8 minutes while connecting on 37.4 percent of 1.9 threes per game across 60 appearances in 2022-23, but his momentum has been entirely stalled since.

Head coach Mike Malone said Thursday that Cancar (knee) is out for the foreseeable future, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.
Cancar suffered a left knee sprain during Tuesday's game versus the Grizzlies and had already missed all of the 2023-24 season after suffering an ACL tear of the same knee. While Cancar is without an official timetable for a return, the 27-year-old forward looks to be headed for an extended absence.

Cancar (ankle) is listed as available for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies.

Nuggets' Vlatko Cancar: Probable to play Sunday
Cancar is probable for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies due to a right ankle sprain.
Cancar played two minutes in the loss to the Pelicans on Friday, and while he's not fully recovered from the ankle sprain that caused him to miss six games, the probable tag suggests he should be able to suit up. With Aaron Gordon (calf) and Nikola Jokic (personal) sidelined, there are theoretically more minutes available for Cancar.

Nuggets' Vlatko Cancar: Gets light minutes in return
Cancar (ankle) logged two points (1-2 FG), two rebounds and one block in eight minutes off the bench in Fridays' 101-94 loss to the Pelicans.
Before missing the Nuggets' last six games with a sprained ankle, Cancar had been left outside of the rotation, but he was able to pick up some backup minutes in the frontcourt with Aaron Gordon (calf) and Nikola Jokic (personal) sitting out. The Nuggets could get Jokic back for Sunday's game at Memphis, but with Gordon's return still weeks away, Cancar could have the opportunity to retain a regular role on the second unit. However, Cancar's playing time is unlikely to climb substantially from what he received Friday, so he's still a long way from getting enough minutes to pop up on the fantasy radar.

Cancar had missed the Nuggets' last six games due to a sprained ankle, but he'll be available off the bench Friday. Though Cancar doesn't project to hold a major role in the rotation for the balance of the season, he could see healthy minutes off the bench Friday with Nikola Jokic (personal) away from the team and with Aaron Gordon (calf) weeks away from a return.
