Nuggets' Will Barton: Questionable Friday vs. Hornets

Barton is dealing with a sore foot and is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Hornets, Chris Dempsey of Altitude Sports reports.

Analysis:

Barton's injury doesn't sound all that serious, but he'll need to prove he's healthy during morning shootaround Friday in order to receive clearance to play. Even if Barton suits up Friday, he won't likely won't be in store for a sizable role now that the Nuggets are reasonably healthy on the wings. Barton has seen fewer than 25 minutes in each of the last three games, averaging 10.3 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists per contest.
