Thought to be out for the season after tearing his left Achilles' tendon Nov. 2, Lenard took a big step in his rehabilitation Wednesday during practice with the Denver Nuggets. The veteran shooting guard played five-on-five for the first time since the injury and the Nuggets are optimistic he will return before the April 19 season finale. "I honestly think he will play basketball for the Denver Nuggets this season," coach George Karl said. "I was surprised he played as much as he did (Wednesday). I think it was more of a passing-game, conditioning practice, but he made it through the whole practice, which I thought was a surprise." </div> Source
