The Nuggets finally got some good news today as Monte Morris will return for Denver’s game against the Charlotte Hornets tonight. After missing the Nuggets past 12 games due to a right hamstring strain, Morris should finally make his return to the court, whether that is off the bench or with the starting lineup remains to be seen.
Michael Malone on Monte Morris:
“He’ll be able to play tonight, I’m pretty sure.”
