Nuggets' Will Barton (back) probable for Wednesday

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Will Barton is probable for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics.

What It Means:

Barton was banged up a bit on Tuesday, suffering a lower back contusion. He didn't close out that game, leaving with 4:05 left in the fourth quarter, but it was also a blowout and there was no need for him to play through even a minor injury. It's safe to assume he gets his usual workload tonight unless more news comes out later in the day.

Accounting for him playing in full, numberFire's models project Barton for 15.3 points, 4.7 boards and 3.2 assists in 33.0 minutes of action against the Celtics tonight.
