Will BartonSG, Denver NuggetsWill Barton averaged 15.1 points, 1.9 3s, 6.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.5 blocks on .450 shooting for 71/67 value in 8/9-cat leagues on a per-game basis.
Barton took over as the secondary scorer for the Nuggets which led to Gary Harris taking a backseat this year. Last season Barton battled injuries which derailed his fantasy value, but this season he stayed healthy while Harris fought injuries. Technically he's the third leading scorer for the Nuggets, but everything runs through Nikola Jokic and he's always looking for ways to create for Jamal Murray and Barton. The big season from Will the Thrill isn't a surprise as he's aggressive on both ends of the floor and the Nuggets love to get their wings going.
