Gary Harris: Set for slight minutes increase Tuesday

Harris was technically designated “probable” to play on the Nuggets’ injury report Monday, but Malone’s quote seems to imply that the Michigan State product will, in fact, play Tuesday, as widely expected. Harris made his season debut Saturday in Detroit and played 16 minutes, following up with 22 minutes in Sunday’s win over Boston. With the groin responding well, expect Harris’ minutes total to creep up into the mid-to-upper-20s Tuesday, and he could be set return to a full workload within the next few games, barring some sort of setback.
