Anthony Morrow (back) misses 10th straight

Anthony Morrow (stiff lower back) missed his 10th consecutive game on Saturday.

Morrow's absence has freed up more minutes for Kyle Korver, DeShawn Stevenson, Devin Harris and Lou Williams, but he continues to slowly improve. "[The injury] is nowhere near that worst part now," he said, "but I know if I don't rest and let it heal all the way it's going to continue to bother me." Consider him out indefinitely until we've seen him on the practice court.

Jose Calderon is in uniform for Wednesday

Jose Calderon is in uniform for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.

If these updates sound familiar, it's because it was the same scenario yesterday. Calderon did play on Tuesday night and is expected to play tonight. We'll pass along any updates once it becomes official.

Kobe Bryant says he won't play on Friday

Kobe Bryant (Achilles) said he will not play against the Kings on Friday.

There was a decent chance that he could make his debut on Friday. In fact, NBATV switched the Lakers into the national spotlight against the Kings. Kobe said he would not rule out Sunday's game against the Raptors. NBA fans will have to wait a little while longer before the Black Mamba can return. Xavier Henry and Nick Young will have some value for a little while longer.

Marvin Williams out, Enes Kanter to start

Marvin Williams (Achilles) will not play against the Pacers on Wednesday.

He had some inflammation in his surgically-repaired heel and the Jazz are going to play it safe. Enes Kanter will get the start after his demotion to the bench. Kanter's fantasy value was on life support with some poor defense and the Jazz playing way too slow with him and Derrick Favors in the frontcourt. He'll get a chance to show what he can do tonight and has a lot riding on a very tough matchup.

Chandler Parsons (back spasms) out vs. PHX

Chandler Parsons (back spasms) will not play against the Suns on Wednesday.

He has been dealing with the issue for over one month and it's a little concerning that his back tightened up on him just after he was planning to warm up for the game. The Rockets are coming off a loss against the Jazz and they really need Parsons in their lineup to be at their best. Without him, Francisco Garcia will get the start and Omri Casspi should see a handful of extra shots at power forward. James Harden will also get all the minutes he can handle.

Jose Calderon is a game-time decision

Jose Calderon (ankle) is a game-time decision to face the Pelicans on Wednesday.

He was a game-time call on Tuesday and was able to play and said he felt good after the game. Calderon should be able to play, but it wouldn't be a total shock to see him sit out. He didn't have a great game on Tuesday with 12 points and one assist, so it's not too bad of an idea to bench him in favor of a safer play.

Kyle Korver will start on Wednesday night

Kyle Korver will get the start against the Clippers on Wednesday night.

He's missed over a week with a rib injury and shouldn't be very limited in his return. Korver will attempt to tie the record for most consecutive games with a 3-pointer. He was putting up terrific fantasy value with his 2.5 triples per game and his fantasy owners should have no qualms about putting him back into their lineups tonight. Lou Williams moves back to the bench tonight.

Tiago Splitter won't play on Wednesday night

Tiago Splitter will not play against the Wolves on Wednesday due to tightness in his left calf.

The injury occurred on Monday night in the second half. He had some problems with his calf last season, but that was to his right one. Splitter hasn't missed a game yet and has been very durable in his career, but he's suffered an ankle injury back on Nov. 25. The Spurs will likely use Boris Diaw a little more tonight while Jeff Ayres should get a few extra minutes. Splitter should be considered questionable for Saturday against the Pacers.

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (hand) out 4-6 weeks

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a non-displaced fracture to the fourth metacarpal on his left hand.

He said he didn't feel any pain from the injury, but an X-ray revealed the fracture after the game on Tuesday. Kidd-Gilchrist's numbers were taking a dive over his last 10, shooting just 40.0 percent from the field for averages of 6.3 points with only 0.2 blocks, and 0.4 steals. There isn't much of an upside to stash him and the majority of his owners should have moved on. Jeff Taylor and Anthony Tolliver will help pick up the minutes at small forward. Taylor is in the doghouse a bit, but his attacking style fits better in the Charlotte offense.

Milwaukee police issue citations to Sanders

The Milwaukee police have issued two citations to Larry Sanders, according to Wisn.com.

Sanders was upset about getting sprayed with champagne and got into an altercation with several people at a club on Nov. 3. The incident has forced Sanders to miss over a month of action and he doesn't have a concrete return date set yet. There haven't been many updates, but he was still in a cast last week. He was expected to miss six weeks, meaning he should be back on the court at some point this month. The video of the incident is attached in the link below.

Rajon Rondo will meet with Dr. James Andrews

Rajon Rondo (knee) will meet with Dr. James Andrews in 10-14 days.

He will be joined by team doctor Brian McKeon to help determine the next step. Rondo has yet to take full contact in practice, so that will likely be a subject in the meeting. He's hoping to return this month, but a meeting with a doctor in two weeks might make it a little tough for him to see game action in 2013. Jordan Crawford looks like he'll have a least a month of solid value in standard leagues.

Kobe Bryant practicing in full on Wednesday

Kobe Bryant (Achilles) will be a full participant for practice on Wednesday.

Coach Mike D'Antoni added that Bryant responded well to Tuesday's practice. There is some optimism that Kobe can make a debut on Friday night against the Kings and two back-to-back full practices supports that claim. He probably won't be able to go all out right away, but Kobe has a ton on his shoulders with the Lakers' backcourt basically decimated by injuries.
