Will Barton was in the running for Sixth Man of the Year just a couple seasons ago which made many fans fall in love with his game.
When one looks at his stats compared to Jamal Crawford, who won the award that season, it is clear Barton was robbed of these honors. Last year saw a different Will Barton as his numbers dipped as did the fan’s appreciation of him.
Now, in his contract year, he is starting to look like the player from when he was first traded from the Portland Trail Blazers yet again. As a result, this has created a somewhat confusing scenario between Nuggets fans and Barton himself.
