Nuggets' Will Barton: Hits four 3-pointers in Monday's win

Barton finished with 22 points (7-12 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT) with six assists, two rebounds, a steal and a blocked shot in Monday's 129-101 win against the Lakers.

Analysis:

Barton entered the game hitting just five of his past 21 attempts from behind the arc. This was his most productive outing since the All-Star break and a welcome sight for his increasingly nervous fantasy owners. He cited a pregame chat with coaches giving him confidence. Barton might be worth retaining in deeper fantasy leagues if he can replicate this type of production over the next couple of games.
