Warriors GM calls Iguodala 'missing piece'

Warriors GM Bob Myers says Andre Iguodala is the "missing piece" for Golden State.

The Warriors gave up three players, two first rounders and two second-round picks just to create enough cap space to sign Iggy, so they better hope he's the answer. Iguodala officially signed his four-year, $48 million contract Thursday and was introduced to the media Friday, saying he expects to have a lot of 12-11-11 nights, which would be music to fantasy owner's ears.

D'Antoni: Good chance Kobe plays Sunday

Mike D'Antoni said the chances are "pretty good" that Kobe Bryant plays against the Raptors on Sunday.

It'll be a usual Sunday night home game for the Lakers and he'll get to face the team he put up 81 points against back in 2006. Bryant might not be at 100 percent, but the Lakers won't put him in the lineup unless they knew he could go out there and look like himself. Xavier Henry and Nick Young would likely get less shots with Kobe back.

Kevin Love (personal) will not play Saturday

Kevin Love (personal) will not play against the Heat on Saturday.

His grandmother passed away and he will be with his family. The Wolves did not play on Wednesday due to an electrical fire in Mexico City, so Love won't have any games this week. Dante Cunningham will likely pick up most of the slack at power forward against the worst rebounding team in the NBA. Luc Mbah a Moute could also see some time at power forward.

Danny Granger 'looked good' in Fri. practice

Danny Granger (calf) "looked good" in portions of Friday's practice, according to coach Frank Vogel.

He's not going to play Saturday against the Spurs and is still out indefinitely. The Pacers have very little incentive to bring Granger back with how well the team has come together this year. Lance Stephenson and Paul George are unlikely to see their roles change much, so fantasy owners shouldn't be concerned. Granger can be left on the wire in most formats.

Brandan Wright returns to practice Friday

Brandan Wright (shoulder) returned to practice on Friday and said there's an "outside chance" he can play on the team's road trip.

He did mention he won't play on Saturday at Portland, but the Mavs will play at Sacramento on Monday and at Golden State on Wednesday, so it's at least possible he suits up for those. Wright has been out for the season with a shoulder injury and had been doing some 5-on-0 work before this news. DeJuan Blair has recently moved into the starting lineup and even played a season-high 29 minutes on Wednesday. It'll be a bit of a logjam at center, but Wright makes for an interesting pickup in deeper leagues for his potential block totals.

Russell Westbrook (illness) a game-time call

Russell Westbrook (illness) missed Friday morning's shootaround and is a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Pelicans.

Westbrook is a warrior and he came back very early from his knee surgery earlier in the year, so he is likely a little closer to probable than doubtful for this game. The Thunder are coming off a loss at Portland and certainly don't want to have a two-game losing streak. If Westbrook isn't at full strength, an improving Reggie Jackson would handle the duties at point guard. Jackson played 30.0 minutes per game over his last two outings.

Kyle Korver could set 3-point record on Fri

Kyle Korver could break the record for consecutive games with a 3-pointer on Friday, as he is currently tied with Dana Barros at 89 games.

Should Korver break the record on Friday, the Hawks organization plan to acknowledge the feat. Korver has been shooting 53 percent from the floor and 51 percent from deep this season, and with Lou Williams being brought along very slowly from knee surgery, the good times should continue to roll for Korver's owners as he remains the uncontested starting SG in ATL.

Joakim Noah dominates in paint in blowout win

Joakim Noah terrorized the Heat in the paint in Thursday's 107-87 victory, grabbing 15 boards with 17 points, three assists and one steal in 33 minutes.

He shot 6-of-9 from the field and all nine attempts were within the paint. That's nothing new for Noah and 84 percent of his shots have been in that range. He whipped the Heat on the glass tonight and matched his season high. Noah entered tonight ranked just 29th in rebounds per game, but he's one of the toughest to box out and ranks eighth in contested rebounding percentage among players getting 30 minutes per game. He still has a little buy-low appeal.

Taj Gibson stays hot, scores 19 points

Taj Gibson was effective off the bench for the Bulls yet again on Thursday with 19 points, six boards, one steal and one block in 24 minutes.

He's one of the hotter big men in the NBA, especially off the bench. Over his last four games, Gibson averaged 21.5 points, 8.0 boards and 1.8 blocks. He was assisted by garbage a bit, but he plays 9.3 minutes per game in the fourth quarter anyway. Gibson has been too good over the last four to leave on the wire in almost any league.

Deron Williams 'shooting for' Tuesday return

Deron Williams (ankle) said he's "shooting for" a return to the lineup on Tuesday.

They need him back badly. The Nets became the first time this year to suffer multiple 30-point losses, they rank last in defensive efficiency, last in 3-point percentage allowed and 23rd in offensive efficiency. Williams has suffered a few ankle tweaks this season and he will likely have a few more, so he's one of the riskiest players to own in fantasy hoops.

Carmelo scores 19, Knicks embarrass Nets

Carmelo Anthony scored a team-high 19 points on 8-of-12 shooting against the Nets during a 113-83 win, adding 10 boards, six assists, one block and one 3-pointer.

He entered tonight shooting just 42.3 percent from the field including 27.7 percent from downtown, but nothing cures offensive struggles like a trip to Barclays Center. The Nets are dead last in defensive efficiency and Carmelo got great looks all night. He'll look to keep it going against the Magic at Madison Square Garden on Friday.

Bargnani ejected, plays well with 17 points

Andrea Bargnani received his second technical foul for saying something to Kevin Garnett following a made 3-pointer and was ejected from Thursday's game.

Referee Joey Crawford made the call and he's renowned for his numerous technical calls. Bargnani had a terrific game in the win, scoring 17 points on 7-of-13 shooting with two boards, three assists, one steal, three blocks and two 3-pointers. Bargnani's value won't be much higher than it is right now since he's coming off a six-block, 17-point game on Sunday. His value will take a hit once Tyson Chandler comes back, so plan accordingly.
