So much for Allen Iverson's aversion to practice.
Still struggling to make sharp lateral cuts on his sore right ankle, Iverson was an active participant in practice Tuesday and expects to return to the Nuggets lineup tonight after sitting out four games.
"Being that I did practice, it is going to be tough for me to sit out, so, hopefully, it won't stiffen up on me or swell up on me or anything like that and I'll be able to go," Iverson said.
Iverson at any speed would be a welcome sight for coach George Karl.
"We're in a position where his presence is going to help us, whatever it is - 70 percent, 80 percent," Karl said. "He knows how to figure out what he can do and what he can't do. We could use him."
While Iverson expects to play, center Marcus Camby expects to miss his second game in a row because of a strained left groin.
"Groins and hamstrings, you've got to be careful," Camby said.
