Nuggets' Will Barton: In Saturday's lineup

Barton (ankle) will be the Nuggets' starting shooting guard for Saturday's game against the Jazz, Chris Dempsey of The Denver Post reports.

Analysis:

Barton carried a probable designation into Saturday's game, and he will be able to take the floor and start as expected. The 25-year-old tallied 17 points, seven rebounds, and five assists over 33 minutes in Friday's loss to the Rockets, which marked his first game back from a three-game absence due to the sore left ankle.
