Nuggets' Wilson Chandler: Will play Saturday vs. Cavaliers

Chandler (illness) will start at small forward Saturday against the Cavaliers, Cavaliers radio play-by-play broadcaster John Michael reports.

Analysis:

Chandler was listed as probable with the illness heading into Saturday, so there was never much concern about his availability for the second half of the back-to-back set. He played 37 minutes during Friday's victory over the Knicks, and with Danilo Gallinari (groin) and Kenneth Faried (ankle) still out, the Nuggets will likely ask Chandler to take on another big workload Saturday.
