5 years agoDenver Nuggets small forward Will Barton (toe) returned to the starting lineup on Tuesday night after missing two games with a toe injury. Barton had his second double-double in as many games, recording 15 points, 10 rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block against the Miami Heat. He showed no signs of rust in his return and helped the Nuggets become the first team to hold Miami under 100 points this season. So far this season, he is shooting a career-high 42.9% from behind the three-point line and is carrying a very useful 21.0% usage rate for the Nuggets. Barton will have three days to rest up before the Nuggets play again. A matchup versus a very tall and long Philadelphia 76ers team awaits as Barton will try to make it three games in a row with a double-double.--Euan Leith
