Denver Nuggets small forward Danilo Gallinari (knee) and guard/forward Wilson Chandler (groin) will not be available for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets.
Getting ruled out a day in advance is rarely a good sign, but head coach Mike Malone believes both Chandler and Gallinari can be back soon. Will Barton will look to keep it going after his career-high 35 point performance on Thursday. He should be owned everywhere while Jamal Murray's extra opportunity also puts him on the pickup radar.
Barton is averaging 16.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.8 3-pointers in 32.4 minutes per game as a starter this season (19 starts). His -0.3 nERD is sixth on the Nuggets among all players to log 20-plus minutes a night.
