Nuggets' Danilo Gallinari: Starts at small forward Wednesday

Gallinari (thigh) will start at small forward in Wednesday's game against the Heat, Harrison Wind of BSN Denver reports.

Analysis:

Gallinari has dealt with a sore thigh recently, sitting out each of the Nuggets' last three contests. However, after taking part in practice Tuesday and experiencing no further discomfort heading into Wednesday, he's now been cleared for a return to the court. He'll take on his normal role in the starting lineup and shouldn't be on any sort of minutes restriction. Wilson Chandler will move back to the bench now that Gallinari is at full strength.
