Duhon suffered back spasms during the game, forcing him to sit the final 15:32. Duhon, who leads the league in minutes per game (39.9), was receiving treatment in the locker room afterward, leaving his status for Monday's game against his former club, Chicago, unknown.

Center Marcus Camby, having another solid game, suffered a sprained left ankle in the fourth quarter.

Camby underwent an X-ray, which was negative, and was listed as day-to-day.

Baron and Randolph:
Maybe the Clippers can see this as a bit of good news.

When the team had its shoot-around Saturday, injured players Baron Davis and Zach Randolph both put in a little work.

With that in mind, Coach Mike Dunleavy was asked how close Davis, who missed his eighth consecutive game because of a bruised tailbone, and Randolph, who missed his 11th consecutive game because of a sore left knee, are to playing again.

"I saw them on the court shooting for the first day today," Dunleavy said. "So that's not doing any running. So, it's hard to say."

Randolph is battling an ear and nose infection that may further delay his return.

Dunleavy said both Davis and Randolph will need to practice full-bore before a decision can be made on their readiness.

"So I still think it's a little bit away," Dunleavy said.

X-rays were negative on the sprained left ankle of Marcus Camby, but he could miss some time with the injury.

He's day-to-day and questionable for Monday's game, but if you've seen video of the injury, it would not be surprising if he missed a few games. Start him at your own risk for Week 13.

Chris Duhon missed practice on Sunday with back spasms, which started giving him trouble in the third quarter of Saturday's loss to the 76ers. Duhon, who is second in the NBA in minutes (39.5), played just 26:07 on Saturday and slightly over eight minutes in the second half.

Mike D'Antoni said Duhon has played through some back stiffness earlier this season and expects Duhon will play in Monday's MLK matinee against Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls. Duhon received treatment on his back and run on a treadmill.

But there is little doubt that any problems with Duhon are a major concern for the Knicks, who can ill-afford to lose their point guard. As I wrote in today's story, Duhon has arguably been D'Antoni's most important player this season.

From Newsday.

Chris Duhon sat out the fourth quarter of Saturday's 107-97 loss to the 76ers with a stiff back and also missed Sunday's practice with the ailment.
Duhon leads the NBA in minutes played and it looks like his body is starting to negatively react. But coach Mike D'Antoni said Sunday that he expects Duhon, who received treatment and worked on a treadmill, to play on Monday against the Bulls. Start him at your own risk this week.

A televised report prior to Monday's Clippers game suggests that Marcus Camby is not likely to play this week due to his ankle injury.
Rookie DeAndre Jordan started at center Monday, but Brian Skinner (who started at power forward) should be the biggest beneficiary of Camby's absence and is worth adding if you're in need of rebounds and blocks.

After practicing fully on Tuesday, Devin Harris went for "precautionary" X-rays due to soreness in his ribs.
Coach Lawrence Frank believes that Harris will play on Wednesday, so this appears to be nothing serious. We'll post more on Harris' X-ray results as soon as that information becomes available.

Andrei Kirilenko left Tuesday's game midway through the second quarter because of a sore right ankle. He is not expected to return.
Kirilenko missed two games in early December because of pain in the same ankle. We're hopeful that he just tweaked it, and should have an update soon.

Chris Duhon (back) didn't practice yesterday, and such a scenario sounds as though it will be a trend on non-game days.

Said D'Antoni, "He won't practice on the days off, try to get his back well-rested."

Duhon is expected to play tonight, as is David Lee David Lee (ankle).

There's no word of Durant missing Wednesday's game, but it couldn't hurt to check for an update after the team's shootaround. Joe Smith is once again doubtful with a sore knee.

Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy said on Tuesday that Marcus Camby could miss up to two weeks with his sprained ankle.

The prognosis gets steadily worse for Camby, but hopefully this is the last time his return date will get pushed back. The Clippers have no choice but to rely on DeAndre Jordan and Brian Skinner for production in Camby's absence.

Davis suffered an injured hamstring when he was practicing Tuesday night. He had been making progress before the latest injury. The Clippers said it was not a strained hamstring but that he had some tightness in the area.

Before the Clippers faced the Lakers, Davis said he was pointing toward playing in next Wednesday night's game at Staples Center against the Chicago Bulls.

Marcus Camby's status for Friday's game against the Thunder will be determined on Friday morning, according to Lisa Dillman of the L.A. Times.
This is great news considering that it was just Tuesday when coach Mike Dunleavy said he could miss up to two weeks. He could still be limited if he starts, but a limited Camby could still be worth a start, depending on your alternatives.

Deseret News: Utah Jazz: Three regulars miss practice

The Jazz practiced today without three of their regulars, but at least two of them may be available when LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers visit Saturday night.

Sixth man Andrei Kirilenko was still rehabbing his inflamed right ankle, replacement-starter power forward Paul Millsap sat out the session because of soreness in his bruised right knee and reserve forward matt Harpring didn't practice so he could rehab his surgically repaired right knee.

Kirilenko will be a game time decision for Saturday, but a Jazz spokesman said Millsap is "probable" and Harpring is "expected to play" for the game against the Cavs

Camby obviously missed last night's game, despite the news earlier he might be available.

Sounds like a risky play in the near future:

They had hoped for an early return from Marcus Camby (sprained left ankle). But that turned out to be wishful thinking.

Camby went the full practice on Thursday. But the problem came Friday morning.

"It ballooned up again," he said. "I was just going out there to gauge it and see how it was going to be. Once I had the adrenaline going, I was out there playing and playing.

"I thought I was going to be good -- till I woke up. I was trying to push it and get back out there on the court. I wouldn't call it a setback because they said I was going to be out a whole lot longer.

"I knew it was going to hurt [Friday]. When I saw the swelling, I knew something wasn't right."

All of these from Rotoworld:

Andrei Kirilenko (inflamed ankle) does not expect to play in Utah's game on Saturday.

Marcus Camby (sprained ankle) is questionable to play in the Clippers game on Sunday.

Kevin Martin skipped the Kings practice on Friday to attend his great-grandmother's funeral, but he is expected to play in Saturday's game.

Bobcats guard D.J. Augustin (strained abdomen) is hoping to return on Friday.

Mid to late week injuries are never fun:
Michael Redd left during the third quarter of Saturday's game after straining his left knee. He did not return and is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Sunday.

Redd limped off the court, and we can only hope that this isn't anything too serious. If he ends up missing significant time, Charlie Villanueva, Richard Jefferson and Ramon Sessions will likely be asked to pick up the slack on offense. Check back on Sunday for the test results.

Clippers' starting point guard Mardy Collins will miss Sunday's game with a strained left calf.
He left Friday's game with the injury, although it remains to be seen who will start for the Clippers. Fred Jones played a lot of point guard on Friday, so he could get the call today. Baron Davis, Zach Randolph and Chris Kaman are also out, while Marcus Camby is listed as questionable with an ankle sprain.

Time for our "twice daily" Camby update:

Marcus Camby (sprained ankle) is questionable to play in Monday's game against the Blazers.
Camby sat out on Sunday after being listed as a game-time decision. It's possible he wanted to avoid playing in back-to-back games, but Clipsnation.com writes that Camby "probably won't be playing" vs. the Blazers. The Clips play four times this week, so at least there is some room for error.

Here's what the Washington Post said about Blatche:

Late in the fourth, Blatche tried to dribble around O'Neal along the left baseline. O'Neal appeared to kick Blatche, then Blatche bumped knees with O'Neal and crashed to the floor, writhing in pain. After laying on the floor for several minutes, Blatche hopped back toward the tunnel on one leg. Blatche said he will attempt to practice on Tuesday, but the team will list him as day-to-day with a strained left knee. "That was the scariest thing ever. I thought it was something serious," Blatche said. "I felt a pop, but it should be fine. All I know is [O'Neal] hit me and I went flying."

The game recap for the Clippers indicated that Marcus Camby is not due back from his ankle injury until "sometime during the Clippers' seven-game road trip that begins Friday in Cleveland."
However, the L.A. Times also suggests that it could happen "sooner," but it doesn't sound like Camby has a great shot at playing Wednesday against the Bulls. There's still a chance he could play two or three games this week, but this sounds like a tough break for owners who rolled the dice on him this week. Jan. 27 - 1:36 am et

Mothereffin' Baron Davis's return is probably going to be delayed a little further. I say probably because apparently the Baron is back to his tricks from the old days of playing a relatively small portion of the season, and sitting out (read: relaxing) the rest.

Latest News:
Baron Davis was sent home Monday due to chest congestion. He worked out on the court before the game and is still expected back in the lineup either Wednesday or Friday of this week. He's missed 13 straight games due to a bruised tailbone and is also bothered by the cold, as well as a hamstring injury.

As per Rotoworld at 3:16 P.M.

Andray Blatche will miss two to four weeks after sustaining a strained left knee in a collision with Shaquille O'Neal on Monday.

Either Darius Songaila or JaVale McGee will start in Blatche's place on Wednesday, and of the two, McGee has significantly more upside and is the more promising waiver wire add. Just keep in mind that the rookie is likely to be inconsistent.
