Nuggets' Wilson Chandler: Set to play Thursday

Chandler (illness) will start at power forward in Thursday's contest against the Pacers, Harrison Wind of BSNDenver.com reports.

Analysis:

Chandler might not be 100 percent healthy while he looks to overcome the illness, but the Nuggets decided he was fit enough to suit up. In fact, Chandler should be in line for a more expanded role than usual, as Darrell Arthur (lower leg), who started the Nuggets' previous game Saturday against the Thunder, has been ruled out Thursday.
