OKLAHOMA CITY – Gary Harris guards his words almost as ruthlessly as he checks opponents.
If his prolonged shooting slump is getting to him, he isn’t letting on.
“I’m not worried about that,” Harris said at Thursday’s practice before the Nuggets (38-17) traveled to Oklahoma City. “It’s basketball at the end of the day. It’s a game. Go out there. I’ll be alright.”
The last 15 games Harris played before the All-Star break were particularly rough for him, and that included missing five games with an adductor strain. Over that span, Harris managed just 7.9 points on 32 percent shooting from the field, including 19 percent from 3-point range.
