DENVER (AP) -- The Denver Nuggets suffered another major setback Wednesday when they learned center Marcus Camby, the NBA's leading rebounder, will be out indefinitely with a broken right pinkie.

Camby will need surgery on the finger, after which a timeline for his return will be set.

He averages 16.3 points, 12.9 rebounds and is second in the league with 3.12 blocks a game. His injury adds to a long list for Denver, which has struggled to a 14-15 record.

Already, the Nuggets have lost power forward Nene for the season with a knee injury. Kenyon Martin has missed 10 games with a bad knee. Earl Boykins recently missed six games with a hamstring injury and Greg Buckner missed three with a strained groin.

Camby played only six minutes Tuesday night in a 108-106 loss to Philadelphia. The Nuggets play Seattle on Thursday.

Big surprise...


When Denver fans said Camby should be considered MVP..I was laughing because I doubt he'll stay healthy. And he gets injured again!!

Man he is the perfect NBA center. But he seems to be like "Mr. Glass"...

2nd Version of Penny. He can be sooooooooooo good and yet so bad with his injuries.

Penny had the one serious injury that he never really recovered from. Camby, it's always something different.


It's too bad he got hurt, because Camby's been playing great basketball. He's been one of my favorites ever since his 'Ewing Theory' days with the Knicks.
