Nuggets' Will Barton: Listed as probable Saturday

Barton (ankle) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Jazz, Harrison Wind of BSN Denver reports.

Analysis:

Barton returned to action in Friday's loss to the Rockets following a three-game absence due to a sore left ankle, turning in 17 points, seven rebounds and five assists in 33 minutes. While it doesn't sound like Barton experienced any setbacks with the ankle, the Nuggets will keep him on the injury report for precautionary purposes, though he's still expected to play Saturday in the second half of a back-to-back set. Even if that's the case, Barton could still see his minutes restricted a bit.
