Will Barton scores 23 points with 2 blocks in Nuggets' win
Denver Nuggets guard/forward Will Barton scored 23 points (8-of-16 field goals, 6-of-8 free throws) with 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks, 1 3-pointers, and 4 turnovers in 31.6 minutes of Thursday's 120-113 win over the Detroit Pistons.
What It Means:
Barton scored in the single digits in three of the previous four games before Thursday, so it was nice to see him notch his first 20-point outing in almost two weeks. The Nuggets face a tanking Memphis Grizzlies team on Saturday as they open up a seven-game road trip.
Barton scored 34.3 FanDuel points on Thursday, compared to his average of 29.3 FanDuel points per game for the season.
