NBA: Nuggets' McGee out with leg injury

Washington: American basketball team Denver Nuggets center JaVale McGee will be out of action indefinitely because of a leg injury.




Timofey Mozgov would replace McGee in the starting lineup for the Nuggets. The Nuggets would play the Utah Jazz Monday. The third seed in the Western Conference last season started the 2012-2013 season with a 1-4 record.

New coach Brian Shaw was under great pressure due to the poor season start.
