Nuggets' Will Barton: Ruled out Wednesday

Barton (foot) will not play in Wednesday's game agains the Rockets, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Barton was listed as doubtful earlier on Wednesday, so his absence does not come as a surprise. The shooting guard will now have missed four straight games due to the sore left foot, and his chances of returning before the end of the regular season are looking rather slim. Wilson Chandler will once again pick up additional minutes and be the primary scorer off the bench for the Nuggets on Wednesday.
