Wilson Chandler ties career-high w/ 35 points
Wilson Chandler - G/F - Denver Nuggets
March 2, 2013 - 4:30 AM ET

Wilson Chandler played through a sprained right ankle and tied a career-high with 35 points on 13-of-19 shooting, six threes, three rebounds and one assist in 36 minutes off the bench on Friday against the Thunder.

Chandler sprained his ankle on the practice court prior to the game, but with the weekend off we're going to leave him off the injury report unless we learn the injury somehow worsened. He scored 23 points on Monday with Danilo Gallinari (thigh) out, disappeared on Wednesday, and then came to life tonight with Gallo back in the fold to the tune of 22 minutes. He's going to struggle for consistency in a bench role and has red flags due to his hip, but he's worth a speculative add with the hopes he can keep up enough production to retain low-end value.
