Will Barton goes for 22-8-4 in frustrating road loss to Cavaliers
by Lucas Spence | Sat, Mar 7th 10:48pm EST
Will Barton led the Nuggets in scoring with 22 points (9-18 FG, 3-9 3PT, 1-1 FT) in Saturday's 104-102 loss in Cleveland. Barton added eight rebounds, four assists, and two turnovers in a team-high 37 minutes of action.
Fantasy Impact:
After losing to the Warriors and then escaping with a late-game victory over the Hornets earlier this week, the Nuggets suffered another embarrassing loss on Saturday to the lowly Cavaliers. To his credit, Barton is playing well again, scoring in double-figures in five straight games (17 PPG in that stretch) and continuing to be a solid source of scoring most nights for fantasy owners. However, an uptick in defensive stats would be a welcome sight as Barton has combined for only one steal and zero blocks in the past five games, limiting his overall fantasy value.
