Will Barton Officially Out Thursday Against New Orleans
Denver Nuggets guard/forward Will Barton (toe) will not play Thursday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Barton is dealing with toe inflammation and the Nuggets are most likely just being cautious with their guard. In Barton's absence, Torrey Craig should get the start while Michael Porter Jr. may see his first minutes of his career.
Justise Winslow May Sit Out on Thursday
Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The Hawks are already banged up, so the Heat may have a good chance to win even without Winslow. Goran Dragic should see an extended role on Thursday, assuming Winslow gets the night off. He'll make for a […]
Will Barton is Questionable for Thursday
Denver Nuggets guard/forward Will Barton (toe) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Possibly, Michael Porter Jr. would […]
