George Hill is a game-time decision Saturday

George Hill (concussion) will be a game-time decision Saturday night against the Knicks.

Hill was going through the on-court exertion part of the league's concussion protocol Saturday afternoon. He'll have to pass all levels of the test before being cleared to return to game action. The Pacers clearly missed in Thursday's Game 5 loss to the Knicks and a return could help Indiana close out the series at home. If Hill isn't cleared, D.J. Augustin will start and be in line for major minutes.

Anthony Bennett (knee) out for three weeks

An MRI on Monday revealed Anthony Bennett is dealing with a left patellar tendon strain and he will be out for approximately three weeks.

He has been dealing with knee soreness since Late February and the Cavs finally know why. Bennett's minutes have fallen off and he's also lost a step after he was showing at least some shred of potential about a month ago. Fantasy owners can cut him everywhere.

Tyson Chandler (personal) could miss Monday

Tyson Chandler could miss Monday's game against the Sixers due to a personal matter.

There is no word as to why Chandler will not be with the team and hopefully everything is fine. It's not terrible timing for the Knicks as they get to host the Sixers tonight, so going with a smaller lineup should still be enough to get a win. The Knicks will likely get Amare Stoudemire more involved at center while Jeremy Tyler and Cole Aldrich could get a few more minutes.

Report: Phil Jackson likely to join Knicks

Phil Jackson is likely to accept the Knicks' offer to join their front office, according to ESPN's Chris Broussard.

"As of right now, it looks like Phil's taking the job," an anonymous source told Broussard. "There's always the possibility of something falling apart at the last minute, but the Knicks' sense is that he's joining them." Jackson has pushed for full decision-making powers in the past and it's probable that he'll have carte blanche to overhaul the Knicks' roster if he does indeed accept the offer -- a final answer is expected within a few days.

Rajon Rondo (knee) not ready for back-to-back

Rajon Rondo (knee) indicated that he's not ready to play in both of the Celtics' back-to-back games on Tuesday and Wednesday.

"A combination of things bother me on my lower part of my body, my calves, my Achilles and then my knee," he said. "The next day [after a game], I need the rest. I'm pretty sore when I wake up. My Achilles bothers me the most when I get out of bed." He delivered 18 assists without a single turnover on Sunday and fantasy owners will have to live with occasional DNPs -- after this week's set the Celtics play back-to-backs on March 16/17 and 30/31, as well as April 4/5 and 11/12.

Eric Bledsoe (knee) could return on Monday

Eric Bledsoe (knee) is targeting a return on Wednesday but "the window is open" for Monday's game if he feels good enough to play.

Bledsoe has been practicing and scrimmaging full-court since March 1, and the Suns' vaunted medical staff seems content with him playing as soon as he feels ready. He'll come off the bench initially but coach Jeff Hornacek said that Bledsoe could eventually retake the starting SG job. "I guess we'll play that one by ear," said Hornacek.

Nerlens Noel (ACL) hopes to debut April 4

Nerlens Noel would like to make his 76ers debut in Boston on April 4, according to beat writer Keith Pompey.

Unnamed sources confirmed that Noel's tweet of "4-4-14" was indeed a reference to a potential return date, but apparently "this is just a wish that [Noel] had not disclosed to the Sixers as of Sunday afternoon." It's hard to imagine Noel telling the world his plans before mentioning them to the team which has overseen his rehab every day for months, but the drama is nearly irrelevant for fantasy owners given that a return on April 4 would leave Noel with a maximum of eight games, and that includes two back-to-back sets.

Andrew Bynum (knee) could debut Friday

Andrew Bynum said that returning to action vs. the 76ers on Friday is "definitely a possibility."

Bynum said that he's "probably at 80 percent but good enough to go," and his status might be determined after he meets with coach Frank Vogel on Monday. There's no reason to pick him up in any leagues given his questionable health and the prospect of limited playing time and precautionary DNPs.

Stephen Curry (quad) limited to 30 minutes

Stephen Curry's mildly strained quad limited him to 30 minutes of action vs. Phoenix -- he scored 18 points with nine assists and only one turnover as the Warriors hung on for a 113-107 win vs. Phoenix.

"There’s potential – when that muscle fatigues – for other things to creep up, and that’s what we’re trying to avoid," Curry said before the game. We'll keep a close eye on how he reacts on Monday, but for now it's safe to assume that he'll be ready for the Warriors' back-to-back set on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Jeremy Lin drops 26 points in small lineup

Jeremy Lin came out of nowhere to score 26 points off Houston's bench on Sunday, sinking 10-of-12 free throws with two 3-pointers, three rebounds, one assist and two steals in 34 minutes.

He played the majority of the second half alongside Patrick Beverley (12 points, four steals) and took over at PG once Bev fouled out in overtime. Hopefully this huge game off the bench will thrust Lin into a bigger role going forward, but he's hard to trust after failing to score more than 11 points in any of his previous nine games.

Rockets ride James Harden's 41 pts to OT win

James Harden went off for 41 points, seven 3-pointers, 10 rebounds, six assists, six steals and one block in Sunday's overtime victory vs. the visiting the Blazers.

He forced OT with a cold-blooded 3-pointer and simply couldn't be checked by Portland as he set or tied season-highs in rebounds, 3-pointers and steals, while adding his first blocked shot in over three weeks. The Rockets have won five straight games to move into third place in the West, and Harden is catching fire at just the right time for playoff-bound fantasy owners.

Kyle Lowry triple-doubles in win at Minnesota

Kyle Lowry recorded his fourth career triple-double on Sunday with 20 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists as the Raptors earned a 111-104 win in Minnesota.

This was K-Low's second triple-double in an already remarkable 2013-14 season, and Joe Johnson's selection to the All-Star game over Lowry remains a clear injustice. Lowry made 9-of-10 free throws, sank one 3-pointer, and stole the ball twice to round out another elite fantasy performance.
