 Kobe remains a game-time decision for Wed.
Bryant
Kobe Bryant (ankle) remains a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.
Feb. 9 - 4:58 pm et
 Iverson ruled out through the All-Star break
Iverson
Allen Iverson will not play in the Sixers' next two games as he attends to his ill child.
The earliest Iverson will return is Feb. 16 against the Heat. He could be asked to come off the bench at that point, which could set off a whole new set of problems for coach Eddie Jordan. Again, the Sixers are 3-0 since Iverson has left the team and we think your team is probably better off without him as well. Feb. 9 - 3:50 pm et
 Nets' Harris not likely to play Tuesday
Harris
Devin Harris (sprained AC joint) says he probably won't play against the Cavs on Tuesday.
The Nets play Wednesday night in Milwaukee before mercifully taking a few days off for the All-Star break. We wouldn't be surprised if Harris rests tomorrow also. With Nets record at 4-46, Harris is an obvious shutdown candidate due to all his nicks. Keyon Dooling draws another start tonight. Feb. 9 - 2:08 pm et

 Nicolas Batum moves into Blazers' starting 5
Nicolas Batum will start for the Blazers against the Thunder on Tuesday.
We're not sure yet if this is a permanent move or simply made for defensive purposes tonight. Don't run out and add Batum because Brandon Roy (hamstring) will eventually return and Batum is very raw offensively. We wouldn't expect him to attempt more than 7-9 shots per game even if he gets 30 minutes. Jerryd Bayless will slide to the bench tonight, although he should still be good for his 15-20 minutes.

 Melo says he will try to play on Tuesday
Anthony
Carmelo Anthony (ankle) says he is going to play on Tuesday.
We'll believe it when we see it, but all signs point toward Melo finally getting back in action tonight. He's listed as probable and even admitted that he's been out way too long with this mere sprained ankle. Playing in the next two games will allow Anthony to suit up for Sunday's All-Star game with a clear conscious. Feb. 9 - 1:06 pm et

 Corey Maggette not a lock for Feb. 16th game
Maggette
There is no guarantee that Corey Maggette (dislocated finger) will be ready to play in the Warriors first game after the All-Star break, Feb. 16 vs. the Lakers.
Maggette injured himself during Saturday's game, reportedly popping the finger back into its socket six times during the game. "If you would've seen my face," Maggette said, recalling the agony. "My mom was like, 'I have never seen you in pain like that.'" Just keep him benched and hopefully we'll get a positive update in the next week. Feb. 9 - 2:39 am et

 Ariza ruled out for Tuesday w/ hip pointer
Ariza
Rockets swingman Trevor Ariza (hip pointer) will not play in Tuesday's game against the Heat.
Chase Budinger is expected to start at SG with both Ariza and Kyle Lowry (ankle) sidelined, with guys like Jermaine Taylor and Garrett Temple providing bench support. The good news for Houston is they'll get a few days to rest injured players over the break -- they have zero players in the All-Star game. Feb. 9 - 2:28 am et

 Anthony Morrow erupts for 33 points vs. Mavs
Morrow
Warriors swingman Anthony Morrow erupted in his second game back from a sprained knee, scoring a season-high 33 points on 12-of-20 shooting, with five 3-pointers, four assists and a season-high 11 rebounds.
We all know how erratic the Warriors' rotations can be, but Morrow's numbers as a starter are more than fantasy-worthy -- 11.5 points on 45% shooting, 1.9 three-pointers, 4.1 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.2 turnovers. Especially now that Monta Ellis has sprained his knee, he needs to be in your lineups. Feb. 9 - 1:55 am et
 Jason Terry scores 36 points in win over GSW
Terry
Jason Terry scorched the Warriors for a season-high 36 points in Monday's victory, making 9-of-17 FGs, 6-of-9 threes, and 12-of-13 FTs. He also had six rebounds, nine assists and three steals.
Yes, this came against Golden State. But in 10 starts this season Terry is averaging 18.2 points, 2.2 threes, 4.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 37 minutes. Hopefully he'll keep it up -- the Mavericks have been seeking a reliable second scorer behind Dirk, and Terry is the most likely man for the job. Feb. 9 - 1:51 am et
