Ty Lawson RUMORS & NEWS

Denver Post "The beauty of social media is the ability to reach anyone anywhere in the world. Ty Lawson is taking advantage of that as he takes a lead role in "recruiting" teammate Andre Iguodala to stay with the Nuggets. Lawson's midday tweet to Iguodala on Wednesday was in good fun, but continued to..." May 18

Denver Post "Nuggets guard Ty Lawson left the Pepsi Center on Wednesday afternoon ready to take the team charter to Oakland, Calif., for Game 6 against Golden State. He was not in any way worried about retaliation. Warriors coach Mark Jackson accused the Nuggets of dirty play in Denver's Game 5 victory...." May 02

Denver Post "For the first time since finding out he has a complete tear of the plantar fascia in his right heel, today Nuggets guard Ty Lawson trotted around the basketball court, going through some light drills in hopes of getting back in the lineup before the regular season ends. Afterward, Lawson said..." April 07

Fox Sports Florida "The Denver Nuggets recently had a 15-game winning streak. But nobody paid too much attention since the Miami Heat were in the midst of a 27-game spurt. It would figure. For a team with the NBA’s fourth-best record, the Nuggets sure do fly under the radar. But leave it to point guard Ty..." April 02

Denver Post "The Nuggets’ point guard, tops on the team in points and assists, is sidelined with a complete tear of the plantar fascia in his right heel. Nuggets coach George Karl suggested Monday that his floor general could be pain-free in “a couple weeks.” Asked about the injury, Karl said, “I’m..." April 01

Denver Post "Under the category of a picture is worth a thousand words was this from Friday morning: The Nuggets took a team picture, a version of which was placed on Instagram. In it, guard Ty Lawson stands all the way at one end, near but not next to rookie Evan Fornier, and could not muster a smile, instead..." March 30

SportingNews.com "Denver Nuggets point guard Ty Lawson, who fuels the NBA’s fastest offense, is out with a plantar fascia tear in his right heel, the team announced. Lawson sat out three games with the heel injury and returned against the Spurs but could not play at full strength, saying the pain was so great..." March 29

Denver Post "Nuggets coach George Karl isn't one to vociferously debate the merits of playing through an injury, or resting to be ready for the playoffs. He generally feels that if a player can play, he should play. And yet Ty Lawson's situation probably requires a more careful touch. Denver's starting..." March 29

Denver Post "They're trying to spur the Tar Heel's heel to be ready for the Spurs. But will Ty Lawson play Wednesday night in San Antonio? The Nuggets guard and former North Carolina star is expected to be a game-time decision with a right heel bruise that has lingered for a week. The Nuggets, clearly, need..." March 27

Denver Post "These days, there are so many acronym advanced stats that there may well be one called ACRONYM. And in the NBA, there are so many intangibles that make point guards points guards. But when you simplify things, the Nuggets' Ty Lawson is playing at a Parker-Westbrook-Curry level these..." March 10

Denver Stiffs "There are enough zombies on this Timberwolves roster to populate a Walking Dead episode. Kevin Love will attempt to return in "mid march" with Chase Budinger and Brandon Roy (I'll believe that when I see it), and Andrei Kirilenko will be out until "at least March 13th at Indiana" - which seems..." March 09

Denver Stiffs "This is going to be a fairly short Golden Nuggets today due to some unfortunate timing issues. That said, it's been amazing to watch Ty Lawson and Andre Iguodala play over the last few games. Both Ty and Andre have come up huge in Danilo Gallinari's absence due to a left thigh bruise, putting..." February 28

Denver Post "The evolution has been televised. "I see that on film, I see it in the way he carried himself," said Bobcats coach Mike Dunlap. Nuggets fans have seen it too, from couches in Capitol Hill to bar stools in Boulder, during this resplendent run. Denver guard Ty Lawson, it appears, is..." February 24

SB Nation "Asked about Ty Lawson's season Tuesday, Denver Nuggets head coach George Karl paused for two seconds before responding. "It depends when you're asking me that question," Karl said. "Now, I think he's great. I was ready to strangle him about six weeks ago." Six weeks ago, Lawson was averaging..." February 13

Denver Post "This is about pop. This is about those games when Ty Lawson just pops off the TV screen. When he's popping shots. When he pops opponents in the jaw. OK, yes, it's also about numbers — the plump contract, the swooning scoring, the Dwight Howard-like free-throw percentage — but it's more about..." December 09

Denver Stiffs ""As Ty goes, so go the Nuggets." How many times have we heard that phrase used in description of this Nuggets team? When Ty Lawson signed a 4 year, $48 million dollar extension with the Nuggets on Oct. 30th of this year, the expectation from the front office to Denver Stiffs alike was that..." December 06

Denver Post "Ty Lawson booked it out of the locker room Thursday night, skipping out on any reporters who might have wanted to ask him about his scoreless night in the Nuggets' 98-93 home loss to the NBA champion Miami Heat. But it was not a contentious thing. Reporters were not blown off so much as they..." November 17

Denver Post "The Nuggets gave JaVale McGee the $10 million salary that rightfully belongs to Ty Lawson. It was a silly move. Too many dollars. Too little sense. What's taking Denver so long to rectify the mistake? If the Nuggets want Lawson to be this team's leader, they can't treat their point guard..." October 28

Denver Post "The difference between your Denver Nuggets and Oklahoma City is bigger than Kevin Durant, the planet's best basketball player. The Thunder's young guns want nothing less than championship rings. The Nuggets will settle for Good Job, Good Effort T-shirts. Something needs to change. Bring..." June 08

Los Angeles Times "The smallest player on the court stood in a scrum underneath the basket. Andrew Bynum, the Lakers' 7-foot center, held the ball in the game's opening minute after getting his shot blocked by Denver Nuggets counterpart Timofey Mozgov. That's when Ty Lawson, all 5 feet 11 of him, reached in..." May 11

Denver Post "It happened so often this season — sometimes Ty Lawson would play aggressively, and other times aggressive defense swallowed him up. Moving forward, what can Denver's point guard do to be more effective more often? "I probably never feel that Ty is aggressive enough," Nuggets coach George..." May 09

Denver Post "If the Nuggets were to beat the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 4 on Sunday night, coach Mike Brown was determined that Ty Lawson would not be the player responsible. Lawson dominated Game 3, scoring 25 points with seven assists and no turnovers, after which Brown gushed about the Nuggets point..." May 07

Denver Post "Friday was the holiday called Star Wars Day ("May the Fourth be with you"), so it was fitting that Denver's own Skywalker stole the show. In the biggest game of the season, reserve center JaVale McGee tallied 16 points, 15 rebounds and four blocks as the Nuggets won Game 3 against the Lakers,..." May 05

Los Angeles Times "Ty Lawson can be a difference-maker for the Denver Nuggets. When the Nuggets' point guard gets into the open court, the Lakers' older legs can't match his speed. He weaves his way past height and depth with great ease, leaving a trail of yellow and purple in his wake. "You're not going to..." May 03

Denver Post "It wasn't long after the conclusion of Game 1 that Ty Lawson's phone went into a constant stream of ringing. Calls. Texts. Tweets. Anything his iPhone could notify him of, it was, and it was doing it at a rapid-fire rate. Blocking it all out for Tuesday night's Game 2 became the Nuggets' point..." May 02

Denver Post "Anybody seen Ty Lawson? Did he miss the team bus? Go for a long walk on the beach and forget there was an NBA playoff game? Some imposter wearing his No. 3 uniform was introduced as the Nuggets point guard. During a 103-88 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers Sunday, Lawson was nowhere to be found...." April 30

Denver Post "Of course. Kenyon Martin, he of the snarling, chip-on-his-shoulder defense, was the guy who changed the game. In an air-tight final minute Wednesday night at the Pepsi Center, with playoff positions hanging in the balance, Martin made a tough tip-in and then blocked a shot for the Clippers, who..." April 19

Denver Post "The future can't wait for the Nuggets. It is time for coach George Karl to realize: Wherever this young NBA team is going, Ty Lawson, Danilo Gallinari and Kenneth Faried will lead the way. Let the young guns play, Coach. Lawson, Gallinari and Faried can't learn how to be stars on the..." April 16

Denver Post "What up Ben, I love Ty Lawson, but when you look at his PER, he is not even a top 10 point guard. In fact, I think Faried and Gallo are the only top 10 players by position on the team, according to PER. What does Lawson need to do to become a top 10 PG? There's no question that Ty Lawson has..." March 21

Denver Post "Ty Lawson got word that Kobe Bryant was — how should we put it? — displeased. "I heard he was kind of (ticked off)," Lawson said of the Lakers superstar, who had three monster games but lost the Western Conference player of the week award Monday to the Nuggets point guard. But there was..." March 06

Denver Post "If George Jetson's son Elroy had grown up to be a basketball player, these would have been his kicks. In the day these futuristic black, metallic silver and mango Nikes were released, Ty Lawson's pal Brandon Simpson went to multiple sporting goods stores before finally finding the shoes, which..."
