Nuggets' Kenneth Faried: Available Thursday vs. Kings

Faried (ankle) is available to play Thursday against the Kings, Ally Sturm of Altitude TV reports.

Analysis:

After being listed as doubtful Wednesday, Faried's sprained right ankle has apparently taken a turn for the better, and he'll suit up for Thursday's contest. With Wilson Chandler (illness) possibly available and Darrell Arthur (illness) available, Faried's minutes will be worth watching, as the Nuggets haven't had all three available very often this season. Juancho Hernangomez is seemingly the odd man out, and is the likely candidate to see his minutes cut the most.
