After an incredibly heartbreaking loss against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night, the Denver Nuggets have to immediately get right back into a game against the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday.
Anthony, a six-time All-NBA selection and 2003 All-Rookie Team selection, is elected to the Hall of Fame after a career that included 19 NBA seasons in which he averaged 22.5 points and 6.2 rebounds per game over 1,260 appearances (1,120 starts).

For the game, they could be without one of their best players, as Jamal Murray is on the injury report. The former Kentucky star missed the team's last game, so this would be his second straight out of action (if he doesn't play).
On Wednesday, they will host a much-less-talented San Antonio Spurs team who has been without both De'Aaron Fox and Victor Wembayama. Both of them have been ruled out for the season, but the Spurs will be even more shorthanded than initially thought.
