On Thursday night against the Washington Wizards, Denver Nuggets starting forward Kenneth Faried sat on the bench patiently waiting for his chance to step on the court.
He would remain seated, receiving a DNP-CD in the loss to Washington.
Faried wasn’t listed as inactive, yet the coach decided he couldn’t help the team that night.
Coach Mike Malone started Darrell Arthur for the Nuggets.
Earlier this season after Faried was benched, he was very open with the local press about the move:
““That’s my spot, that’s my spot,” Faried said.
