rest - http://www.denverpost.com/nuggets/ci...ts-season-tornThe news came Saturday afternoon that the Nuggets would lose their fourth player for the balance of the season with an injury when J.J. Hickson's MRI revealed a torn ACL in his right knee.
The rest of the season is just 12 games, but he joins Danilo Gallinari, JaVale McGee and Nate Robinson, who all underwent season-ending surgeries.
He is the third Nuggets player to go down because of an ACL injury.
Hickson is the Nuggets' leading rebounder at 9.2 per game, and is the fifth-leading scorer at 11.8 points per game.
