Carmelo Anthony - F - Knicks

Carmelo Anthony scored 26 points during Saturday's 107-97 win over the Cavs, adding seven boards, four assists, three steals, two blocks and four 3-pointers.

He is on cruise control for the Knicks with 29.0 points and 3.5 triples per game over his last four. Melo had 2.8 steals per game and has put up some eye-popping stats since the All-Star break. The Knicks have won three games in a row and are just four games back of the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference.

Iman Shumpert - G/F - Knicks

Iman Shumpert played 31 minutes off the bench against the Cavs on Saturday, scoring seven points with five boards, three assists, one steal, one block and one 3-pointer.

It's the most minutes he's seen since returning from his knee injury on Sunday. In those five games, Shumpert averaged just 4.8 points, 3.4 boards, 1.8 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.8 triples on 34.5 percent from the field. He's not going to get enough shots or make enough of them to be worth owning in most fantasy formats.

Amare Stoudemire - F/C - Knicks

Amare Stoudemire played well against the Cavs on Saturday with 17 points, 12 boards, four assists and three blocks in 28 minutes.

This was the second night of a back-to-back set and Stoudemire looked like he had a week off during tonight's win. He's actually played well on days with no rest this season, shooting 64.1 percent from the field for averages of 14.1 points, 5.9 boards and 0.6 blocks in 25.7 minutes in seven games. STAT will have his DNPs, but he's worth owning while he's playing well right now.

Carmelo Anthony - F - Knicks

Carmelo Anthony scored 29 points on 10-of-19 shooting with four rebounds, a season-high eight assists, two steals and a block in the Knicks' 108-81 blowout win over the Jazz.

Anthony is setup to roll as a first round value the rest of the way as long as the Knicks are in playoff contention. Tyson Chandler went for 16 and 11 with no steals or blocks, and J.R. Smith scored 17 points with five treys and three blocks of his own in the win.

Amare Stoudemire - F/C - Knicks

Amare Stoudemire scored 10 points with just one rebound and one block over 19 minutes in Friday's blowout win over the Jazz.

Even though the game was a laugher this shows the downside in using Stoudemire. Unless you have supreme control over when you're deploying him, he has no real fantasy value outside of very big formats.

Raymond Felton - G - Knicks

Raymond Felton disappeared in Friday's blowout win, scoring just two points on 1-of-4 shooting with two rebounds and five assists in 26 minutes.

After 18 points, eight assists and four steals on Wednesday he was able to open some eyes, but this returns him to persona non grata status in most leagues.
Mar 7 - 11:56 PM
Kenyon Martin - F - Knicks

Kenyon Martin (ankle) will not play against the Jazz on Friday.

He is out of his walking boot but coach Mike Woodson doesn't know when Martin will go through on-court work. The Knicks are going to manage his minutes upon his return and he's completely hands off for fantasy purposes. The Knicks will start Ray Felton, J.R. Smith, Carmelo Anthony, Amare Stoudemire and Tyson Chandler tonight vs. a vulnerable Jazz defense.

Carmelo Anthony - F - Knicks

Sources tell ESPN that Joakim Noah approached Carmelo Anthony over All-Star weekend about signing with the Bulls this offseason.

Anthony is expected to exercise his early termination option and become an unrestricted free agent this summer. The Knicks, Bulls and Lakers are among the teams that are likely to pursue him, but Noah's selling point was the chance to actually win. A core of Anthony, Noah, Derrick Rose, Jimmy Butler and Taj Gibson would be very formidable. One issue could be money. The Knicks can pay Carmelo $22.4 million per season, while the Bulls could only offer him roughly $14.3 million after using the amnesty clause on Carlos Boozer and dumping Mike Dunleavy in a trade.

Carmelo Anthony - F - Knicks

Carmelo Anthony scored a game-high 33 points vs. the Wolves during Wednesday's 118-106 win with five boards, five assists, three steals and three 3-pointers in 43 minutes.

Anthony went off down the stretch last year and he looks poised to do it again this season. Over his previous 10 games, he averaged 32.4 points, 8.0 boards, 2.7 assists, 1.0 steals, 0.5 blocks and 3.8 triples on 47.3 percent from the field. The Knicks snapped their seven-game losing streak and could work on a winning streak as they host the struggling Jazz on Friday.

Amare Stoudemire - F/C - Knicks

Amare Stoudemire played 31 minutes against the Wolves on Wednesday, scoring 18 points with eight boards, one assist, one steal and two blocks.

It was one of his best games in quite some time and he's played over 30 minutes in consecutive games for the first time all season. After the game, coach Mike Woodson said he likes STAT in the starting lineup, but he's a little worried about managing his minutes. Stoudemire is going to need his days off, but it's not a bad idea to pick him up for owners with some dead weight.

Tyson Chandler - C - Knicks

Tyson Chandler's inflated rebounding numbers continued on Wednesday vs. the Wolves, grabbing 14 boards with 15 points and one turnover in 35 minutes.

He grabbed 14.2 rebounds per game in his previous 10 games and has been playing 36.1 minutes per game over that span. Chandler's minutes jumped up to 33.3 per game in February after just 25.5 in January, so he looks like he's ready to roll the rest of the way.
Mar 6 - 12:17 AM
Raymond Felton - G - Knicks

Raymond Felton turned in one of his best games of the season on Wednesday with 18 points, three boards, eight assists, one block, four steals and two 3-pointers.

Coach Mike Woodson said this was Felton's best game of the season and it's hard to argue. His 18 points were tied for his third highest, he set a season high in steals and his six makes from the line were a season high. Hopefully Felton gets the hint about staying aggressive, but he still has a long way to go to get back in the good graces of fantasy owners.

Raymond Felton - G - Knicks

Raymond Felton is a combined 7-of-32 from the field since being charged with two felony counts of weapon possession on Feb. 25.

Mike Woodson intends to keep Felton as the Knicks' starting PG despite his epic struggles. "I feel for Raymond," Woodson said. "He says basketball is his only out. That says a lot. He's got to somewhat put this situation behind him. It's not going to go away. [But] he's got to show it on the basketball court." Pablo Prigioni could start at PG if Felton doesn't turn things around, and New York could also promote Toure Murry or ink another PG to a 10-day deal.

Chris Smith - G - Knicks

Chris Smith has been released by the Knicks' D-League affiliate Erie Bay Hawks.

J.R.'s brother was waived by the Knicks earlier this season after appearing in zero games. He reportedly left the Bay Hawks a few days before his release because he was upset with his playing time, and it's safe to assume that he won't join an NBA team in the near future.

Tyson Chandler - C - Knicks

Tyson Chandler isn't sure he wants to be part of the Knicks' future.

Chandler's contract doesn't expire until the end of the 2014-2015 season, but he let his frustrations show after Monday's loss to the Pistons. "That’s something I have to visit during the offseason," Chandler said when asked about his future in New York. "We’re all going to have a lot of decisions to make." Regardless of his future plans, Chandler has been an absolute beast on the glass as of late in averaging 16.0 boards per game over his last five games. As long as he continues to take out his frustration on the court, his fantasy owners can't complain about Chandler's long-term uncertainty in New York.
