Gallinari, Barton lead Nuggets past 76ers, 106-98
PHILADELPHIA — A dejected Will Barton walked toward the bench, but the Denver Nuggets guard got a reprieve because it wasn’t a substitution opportunity for his team. With a second chance, Barton responded in a huge way.
Barton scored 22 points, including a big 3-pointer late, to lead Denver to a 106-98 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night.
Danilo Gallinari led Denver with 24 points and Jamal Murray added 22 for the Nuggets, who won for just the second time in the last seven games.
