Nuggets' Darrell Arthur: Ruled out Monday vs. Warriors

Arthur (knee) won't play in Monday's game against the Warriors, Chris Dempsey of The Denver Post reports.

Analysis:

Arthur is dealing with soreness in his left knee, the same injury that sidelined him for four games in a month ago. He'll join Kenneth Faried (ankle) and Danilo Gallinari (groin) on the bench Monday, which could force coach Michael Malone to roll with Wilson Chandler (illness) as his starting power forward, if available. Assuming Chandler is able to fight through the illness, Will Barton would likely reenter the starting five on small forward. In addition to those two players, Juan Hernangomez could also be in store for an increased workload.
