Nuggets bench Kenneth Faried for much of Wednesday's loss
Denver Nuggets power forward Kenneth Faried was sent to the bench only four minutes into Wednesday's game, and ended up playing only 12 minutes total as the Nuggets fell 116-111 to the Brooklyn Nets.
What It Means:
Nuggets head coach Mike Malone was trigger-happy with the hook tonight, and was visibly frustrated with his team's effort, eventually getting himself tossed from the game for arguing with the referees.
It wasn't an especially inefficient performance for Faried, who ranked third on the team with a 4.32 nERD, per numberFire Live. He ranks 46th in the NBA with a 1.3 nERD on the season.
