Nuggets' Danilo Gallinari: Questionable for Friday

Gallinari (thigh) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Thunder, Harrison Wind of BSN Denver reports.

Analysis:

Gallinari missed Wednesday's loss to the Jazz due to a sore right thigh, and was replaced in the starting five by Juan Hernangomez. The extent of the injury still remains unclear, but the Nuggets could be in a bind in the event Gallinari is sidelined for a second straight game. Hernangomez ended up sprained his right ankle in Wednesday's contest and has already been ruled out for Friday, so if Gallinari joins him in street clothes, the Nuggets may be forced to turn to Wilson Chandler or Will Barton as their starting small forward. Jamal Murray, Darrell Arthur and Alonzo Gee would also likely see their roles off the bench grow in such a scenario.
