DENVER (AP) Nuggets rookie Carmelo Anthony could miss Friday's game against the Houston Rockets because a strained toe.

``If it's something that is still bothering him, we're going to hold him out. No question his health is much more important to me right now,'' Nuggets general manager Kiki Vandeweghe said Wednesday.

Anthony has been bothered by a sprained right toe for a week and a half. He has been in pain the past two games, shooting only 9-for-32.

Marcus Camby is uncertain for Friday's game because of a lower back strain. Nene has a left thumb sprain but should be ready.
