Nuggets' Will Barton: Ruled out Wednesday vs. Suns

Barton (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Phoenix, Harrison Wind of BSN Denver reports.

Analysis:

Barton was initially deemed questionable, but he's still bothered by the sprained left ankle that's kept him out of the last seven contests. With Gary Harris (foot) also sidelined, perhaps for several weeks, the likes of Jamal Murray and Jameer Nelson should see increased minutes Wednesday. Consider Barton questionable for Friday's matchup with the Raptors.
