 Jazz's Williams misses practice, will play
Williams
Deron Williams did not practice Friday morning, choosing instead to rest up his sore left shin and hip, both of which he injured Thursday against the Spurs.
Despite missing practice, Williams said he would be ready to play Saturday against the Kings. Nov. 6 - 1:35 pm et

 Chalmers scores career-high 30 points
Chalmers
Mario Chalmers hit 9-of-15 shots and five 3-pointers to score a career-high 30 points in Friday's loss to the Raptors.
Chalmers added three assists and three steals on the night, and owners have to be psyched about this performance. He scored a total of 23 points in his previous four games, but simply got hot tonight. Consider this a good opportunity to sell high on Chalmers. Dwyane Wade also had 30 points to go along with five boards and eight assists in the loss. Nov. 20 - 10:49 pm et
 Lou Williams' career night not enough
Lou Williams hit 12-of-16 shots and four 3-pointers on his way to a career-high 31 points to go along with two rebounds, five assists and six steals.
Wow. He was feeling it against Mike Conley and company, but the fact the Sixers lost at home to Memphis is not going to sit well with anyone on the team, including coach Eddie Jordan. The Sixers were fabulous from a fantasy standpoint though, so let's hope coach doesn't do anything drastic. Nov. 20 - 10:43 pm et
 Murphy returns from injury, double-doubles
Murphy
Troy Murphy returned from a six-game absence with a back injury and had 12 points, 10 boards, a three and two steals in 24 minutes
That's a nice line for Murphy, and as long as he doesn't suffer a setback over the weekend, it should be safe to get him back in lineups. Nov. 20 - 10:25 pm et
 Haslem, Richardson out Friday vs. Raptors
Haslem
Udonis Haslem (shoulder) and Quentin Richardson (back) will not play Friday against the Raptors.
Coach Erik Spoelstra said both players have made progress, but could use a few more days of rest. Haslem insisted he would be available Sunday vs. the Hornets, but Spoelstra did not commit. James Jones is expected to take Richardson's place in the lineup, while Haslem's absence should allow Joel Anthony and Jamaal Magloire to pick up additional minutes. Nov. 20 - 6:30 pm et

 Bynum misses practice, expects to play
Bynum
Andrew Bynum missed Friday's practice to get treatment on his right ankle, which he twisted during Thursday's game against the Bulls.
Bynum said he expects to be able to play Sunday against the Thunder. Meanwhile, Pau Gasol said he has "a lot of soreness," but not in his hamstring, after playing his first game of the season Thursday night. Chalk this up to conditioning; he'll work himself into game shape soon enough. Nov. 20 - 5:35 pm et

 Love's return delayed, now targeting Dec. 11
Love
An X-Ray revealed that Kevin Love's broken hand is progressing, but he's still about two weeks from practicing and three weeks from playing in a game.
Love did some outside shooting Friday, and though he says he feels almost no pain in his hand, he is unable to do anything physical. If he returns Dec. 11 against the Lakers, that would put him right in the 6-to-8 week recovery time originally reported when he broke his hand Oct. 16. Nov. 20 - 4:10 pm et

 Redd practices, eyes Nov. 25 to make return
Redd
Michael Redd (knee) took part in non-contact drills Thursday, but said he will need to absorb some contact before he's ready to play in a game.
GM John Hammond said it would be realistic to expect Redd to return for a Nov. 25 game against the Hornets. Redd's return date keeps getting pushed slightly back, though; so until he actually starts participating in contact drills, we remain skeptical about his return. Nov. 20 - 3:50 pm et

 McGrady, Adelman deny report of altercation
McGrady
Tracy McGrady and Coach Rick Adelman on Friday both denied a Yahoo! Sports report that the two had engaged in a heated argument behind closed doors on Wednesday.
McGrady said he put on his game uniform Wednesday, despite having no targeted date to return from a knee injury, because "I was excited. I put it on, like a little kid. It felt refreshing to put it on because it was in sight." Adelman said he simply reminded McGrady that he wouldn't play, at the earliest, until after his Nov. 23 MRI, and that "We haven't had any arguments. He wants to know what we're going to do." Check back after Nov. 23 for updates. Nov. 20 - 3:38 pm et

 Shawn Marion out Friday vs. Kings
Shawn Marion (ankle) said he will not play Friday against the Kings, but should be back for Tuesday's game against the Warriors.
"It's feeling better," Marion said Friday. "Just a couple more days and I should be good." Look for Quinton Ross to start again in his place. Nov. 20 - 1:29 pm et
