    Without power forwards Martin and Nene, the Nuggets have only one healthy player taller than 6-foot-8. That would be center Marcus Camby, who could make a run at Dikembe Mutombo's franchise-record 31 rebounds in a game.</p>

    Camby leads the NBA in rebounding and has grabbed at least 20 four times this season.</p>

    "I'm ready to take on more of a load if needed," he said. "I'm always ready to play bigger minutes."</p>

    Depending on how long Martin's injury lingers, the Nuggets might have to consider bringing in a big man. That would mean bad news for point guard Mike Wilks, who is expendable now that Anthony Carter has returned from a broken right hand.</p>

    "I love Mike," Karl said. "But, obviously, we've got to make some decisions on our roster if we have some serious injuries."</div></p>
