Okur participated in some shooting drills Sunday at practice while Boozer sat out. Boozer said he expected he could play tonight while Okur was less committal.

Devin Harris said it's too early to tell whether he will play Wednesday in San Antonio

Harris got caught in the paint with nothing but big bruisers around him. Joakim Noah was one of several players that crashed down on Harris in the third quarter and he spent the rest of the evening in the locker room with a neck strain. X-rays were negative and Harris said it's too early to tell whether he will play Wednesday in San Antonio, although coach Avery Johnson sounded optimistic.

Devin Harris practiced Tuesday after taking an elbow to his neck from Bulls forward Joakim Noah the previous night. Though he’s sore, he wasn’t limited at practice. “Stiff or not, I will play,” he said.

Harris will play tomorrow

Ford looks good to go again..

The Raptors will get T.J. Ford back Wednesday night from his "stinger-related" injuries, but Sam Mitchell said this morning that Chris Bosh (groin) and Andrea Bargnani (knee) won't play.

Ford says he's feeling much better and is hopefully ready to put his injury behind him. The Ford news is not all that great for Jose Calderon owners, but he'll still likely start and get plenty of minutes. Joey Graham will also start for the Raptors.

Jason Kidd is suffering from a migraine and is not likely to play against the Knicks on Wednesday.

He wasn't even in the arena as of 6:30 p.m. for the 7:30 p.m. game. In addition, Stephon Marbury will not play tonight due to the death of his father, according to Dave D'Alessandro's blog for the Newark Star-Ledger. Get both players on your bench if you have that option and look for Eddie Gill to get a lot of run at PG for the Nets tonight. As for New York, some combination of Mardy Collins, Nate Robinson, Fred Jones and Jamal Crawford will man the point. Dec. 5 - 6:39 pm et

Starting point guard Marko Jaric practiced "almost fully" on Wednesday after missing two games because of a sprained foot and ankle that he suffered Friday against San Antonio.

"[Jaric's ankle] is improving," interim coach Jerry Sichting said Wednesday. "There's a chance he could play [on Thursday]. He may have to wait one more ballgame." If you can, keep Jaric benched until he's played a full contest, then play him every game and hope Randy Foye doesn't kill his value entirely.

Randy Foye Update:

According to pre-game interviews with Randy Foye tonight prior to the Phoenix game, he said he dunked the ball on Thursday of this week which was a big step in his return. He meets with doctors again Monday and hopes to get approval to play in their next game Tuesday.

Something to watch if you have any MN players like Jaric, Telfair, etc.

76ers reserve guard Lou Williams had to leave Saturday's win over the Knicks after David Lee knocked him to the ground in the third quarter.

Lee was called for a flagrant foul (1) but thankfully Williams played a little bit before leaving the game, so hopefully there will be no serious injury to report. When we learn more we'll let you know, but in the meantime Kyle Korver would see a temporary boost in value if Williams misses any more time.

James expected to return Tuesday

LeBron James has missed five and a half of those games with a sprained left index finger.

James is expected to return for Tuesday's home game against Indiana, and it's possible Anderson Varejao will join him. Varejao finally signed with the Cavs last week after missing all of training camp and the first month of the season in a contract dispute.

Keith Bogans is recovering from a bruised right quad muscle, did not practice on Sunday and is questionable for Monday night.

"I probably won't know [if I can play] until right before the game tomorrow [Monday]," Bogans said Sunday. "It's better today, but it's still a little sore and swollen." If he can't go, look for Keyon Dooling to get the start.

LeBron James (finger) was able to practice Monday and continues to plan on returning Tuesday against Indiana.

The Cavaliers went 0-6 in the five and 1/2 games he missed. "We're going to leave it as a game-time decision," he said. "I've been through two contact practices OK. We'll see what happens." He has been wearing a protective glove over the knuckle on his finger.(rotoworld)

Blooki for you:


Blazers' F/C LaMarcus Aldridge is going to be sidelined for at least a week after an MRI revealed plantar fasciitis in his right foot on Monday.

Aldridge has been fitted with a walking boot, did not practice Monday and didn't travel with the team to Utah, where the Blazers play on Tuesday. "The doctors are telling us at least a week,'' coach Nate McMillan said Monday. "It could calm down sooner, or it could be longer. We just know if he continued playing on it, there was a risk.''McMillan said he will start Channing Frye at PF tonight against the Jazz, as he prefers to keep Travis Outlaw coming off the bench. This is devastating news to Aldridge and his owners, and it would have been nice to have known sooner than later.

Andrei Kirilenko left Tuesday's game after taking a shot in the nose from the head of Portland's Channing Frye.

AK-47 was disoriented, but prepared to return to the game. He didn't get back on the floor, but is expected to play tonight at Phoenix.

TJ out a week.

Source: Rotoworld

T.J. Ford was back on the bench with his teamates on Wednesday but said he will take at least a week off to recover from the neck and back injuries he suffered during a hard fall on Tuesday.

"I'm going to give myself a week," Ford said. "It all depends on how my body recovers. I don't think you can put a timetable on it." Get him on your bench ASAP.

Nelson banged up

Source: Rotoworld

Jameer Nelson hit just 2-of-9 shots for four points and six turnovers in Wednesday's loss to the Bucks.

The Magic have now lost back-to-back games to the Hawks and Bucks and three in a row, and can't feel good about that. Nelson is still struggling with the death of his father and has been a model of inconsistency this season. We still think he's going to get it worked out and have some solid fantasy value, but it's been a bumpy ride thus far. Reports during the broadcast indicated that Nelson is "banged up," so let's just hope he doesn't miss any time. If he does, it's possible that Carlos Arroyo could steal his job at some point.

Antonio McDyess had 12 points and eight rebounds before leaving Wednesday's game with a sprained ankle.

Uh oh. Jason Maxiell had 12 points and eight boards off the bench, and McDyess' injury could be the final reason you need to pick him up. We have no information on the severity of the injury, so it's quite possible McDyess could play in his next game.

Mehmet Okur could miss multiple games as he recovers from a strained trapezius suffered on Tuesday.

The Jazz are calling him "day-to-day", but Okur said it's possible he may miss more time. "Actually it was pretty sore (Tuesday) night," he said, "and (Wednesday) morning was worse. I want to go out there and play, but I guess this is part of the job." Keep Okur benched, and hope that he returns with more aggressive play than he's shown so far this season. Paul Millsap deserves fantasy consideration as a starter in Okur's absence.

Bryant appeared to strain his left quadriceps muscle on an awkward spinning fourth-quarter shot that was blocked by Golden State's Stephen Jackson. The score was tied, 92-92, at the time, and Bryant moved gingerly the rest of the game.
