(Sports Network) - An MRI exam taken on the right knee of Denver Nuggets forward Chris Andersen showed no structural damage, the team said Wednesday.

An examination by Dr. Steve Traina and subsequent MRI exam revealed moderate patella tendinitis, with Traina deeming Andersen day-to-day. The forward has recently been experiencing soreness in his right knee.

In 11 games this season, his eighth in the NBA, Andersen is averaging 5.1 points, 7.0 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in a little more than 21 minutes per contest.

Additionally on Wednesday, the Nuggets said guard Anthony Carter, who is dealing with a left hip strain, is questionable for Friday's game against the Clippers.
