Chandler practices with Nuggets, will play Wednesday

Denver Nuggets small forward Wilson Chandler will return to the lineup Wednesday, according to Chris Dempsey of the Denver Post.

Chandler missed the Nuggets' last game on Friday with a right knee strain, and the five-day layoff between games has certainly helped. Chandler practiced fully the past two days according to Dempsey, and will assume his usual starting spot on Wednesday when the Nuggets host the Dallas Mavericks.

Denver is believed to be shopping Chandler hard in hopes of landing the sort of future assets they received in the Timofey Mozgov deal. Chandler is third on the Nuggets in scoring at 14.2 points per game and is their leading three-point shooter at a little over 35 percent.
