Washington, DC (My Sportsbook) - Washington Wizards guard Caron Butler will miss Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets because of the flu. The Wizards head into the contest with just nine healthy players. Butler, Gilbert Arenas (knee), Brendan Haywood (wrist), Etan Thomas (knee), DeShawn Stevenson (back), and Andray Blatche (knee) all will miss Friday's game for Washington. Butler is second on the team in scoring (20.0) and rebounding (6.2) and leads the Wizards in assists (4.4). Washington comes into Friday's tilt with a 10-39 record, tied with the Los Angeles Clippers for the worst record in the NBA.
