Lawson survives foot injury scare on Monday
Ty Lawson - G - Denver Nuggets
Jan. 10, 2012 - 4:45 AM ET
Ty Lawson left the Nuggets' 94-81 loss to the Hornets during the second quarter on Monday, but returned early in the third quarter to finish with 15 points on 6-of-11 shooting (including two threes) with three rebounds, three assists, and one steal in 35 minutes.
Lawson limped around a bit but was still his normal explosive self upon returning, and he has a history of gutting out injuries and playing well while doing so. The only question marks here are if the injury worsens overnight, and whether or not the Nuggets want to push a limited Lawson through Wednesday's game against the hapless Nets. We're calling him probable for Wednesday until we get a report on his foot.
