ORLANDO – Nuggets small forward Will Barton wore a walking boot on his left foot as he watched his team’s shootaround in Orlando and coach Michael Malone said he was doubtful for Saturday’s game.
If he can’t go, it would be the second consecutive game he’s missed due to an inflamed left toe.
“Obviously, wasn’t able to go the other night, still feeling the effects of whatever’s going on with his foot,” Malone said.
The Nuggets don’t believe it’s a long-term issue and wanted Barton in the boot to prevent it from becoming more inflamed.
