J.R. Smith's season of poor play and a poor attitude has reached a new low. The Nuggets are considering suspending Smith for behavior detrimental to the team during Saturday's game, a source said.
Smith was seen pouting during the win against the Hornets, and coach George Karl didn't play Smith at all in the third quarter. For the night, Smith played just 12 minutes but had a minus-10 plus/minus rating. The next-lowest plus/minus rating on Denver was Ty Lawson at minus-one.
The plus-minus rating keeps track of the net changes in score when a given player is either on or off the court.
Karl is expected to speak with the media today and will likely address Smith as well as the status of Carmelo Anthony's sprained left ankle. Denver's next game is Monday against Charlotte.
