Nance (knee) is reportedly dealing with a bone bruise in his right knee and is likely to be sidelined until at least the early part of February, Danny Marang of BlazersEdge.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Citing Brian Windhorst of ESPN.com, Marang writes that Nance is expected to be sidelined for around a month with the knee injury he first sustained Jan. 5. With Portland having yet to provide a concrete update on where Nance stands in his recovery, fantasy managers shouldn't count on him playing at any point during the Trail Blazers' upcoming four-game week. Robert Covington should continue serving as Portland's starting power forward for the duration of Nance's absence.
