Chris Humphreys-USA TODAY Sports
Ty Lawson has been disciplined for missing a team practice and is being held out of Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks, according to play-by-play announcer Ted Davis.
Denver Nuggets head coach Brian Shaw was unimpressed after travel issues reportedly prevented Lawson from making practice Wednesday.
Jameer Nelson is starting at the point in place of Lawson.
Lawson is averaging a team-leading 16.9 points and 10.1 assists per game.
