Player Updates?NBA Reports?=20 Latest NBA Player News=20 Eric Snow , G PHI - Rude Boys (Not) Updated 12/10/00=20 The 76ers placed Snow on the injured list with a stress fracture in his=20 right ankle. Snow, who plays point guard next to star Allen Iverson,=20 underwent a CT scan Thursday that revealed the stress fracture. He is=20 expected to be out for six to eight weeks. =20 Kenny Anderson , G BOS - Free Agent Updated 12/10/00=20 The Celtics activated Anderson on Sunday and placed guard Chris Carr on th= e=20 injured list with a sprained left ankle. Anderson had been on the injured= =20 list since Nov. 6 with a fractured jaw. He had a wire removed from his jaw= =20 Dec. 6 and was cleared to practice Dec. 7. He missed 16 games with the=20 injury. =20 Erick Strickland , G NY - Free Agent Updated 12/10/00=20 Strickland sat out Saturday's home game against Denver due to a bruised=20 leg. He was a valuable Fantasy player as a member of the Dallas Mavericks= =20 last season but is limited now by his lack of playing time with the Knicks.= =20 =20 Emanual Davis , G SEA - Free Agent Updated 12/10/00=20 Davis missed his second straight start for the Sonics because of a spraine= d=20 ankle. Forward Ruben Patterson started in place of Davis, with Rashard Lewi= s=20 moving to shooting guard. Davis is a solid ballhandler and defender but=20 doesn't have much Fantasy value. =20 Elliot Perry , G PHO - Free Agent Updated 12/08/00=20 The Suns have signed veteran guard Elliot Perry. He will be used primaril= y=20 as Jason Kidd's backup but has limited Fantasy value. =20 Chris Dudley , C PHO - Free Agent Updated 12/08/00=20 Dudley was activated from the injured list and started in Thursday's game = at=20 Milwaukee. With the lack of depth at center, Dudley could be of good use i= n=20 a larger Fantasy league, but don't use him in a smaller one. =20 Ruben Garces , F PHO - Free Agent Updated 12/08/00=20 Garces was placed on the injured list to make room for C Chris Dudley. =20 Garces is suffering from a bulging disc in his back. He is used primarily = as=20 a third center so he doesn't have a lot of Fantasy value. =20 Donyell Marshall , F UTA - Free Agent Updated 12/08/00=20 Marshall had missed the two games prior to Thursday's action because of a= =20 sprained knee, but returned to the lineup against Vancouver and had seven= =20 points and three rebounds in 14 minutes. Because Marshall comes off the=20 bench he doesn't have much Fantasy value. But with him back in the rotatio= n=20 forwards Karl Malone and Bryon Russell will play less minutes now. =20 Carlos Rogers , F HOU - Free Agent Updated 12/08/00=20 Rogers will be sidelined indefinitely after suffering a sprained knee. He= =20 is a reserve forward with very little Fantasy value but his absence will=20 force the starting frontcourt to play more minutes. This could have positi= ve=20 or negative affects on their production. If you have Houston frontcourt=20 players on your roster monitor them to see if they flourish or flounder und= er=20 the current conditions. =20 Donnell Harvey , F DAL - Free Agent Updated 12/08/00=20 Harvey has been activated from the injured list to make room for the injur= ed=20 Greg Buckner. Harvey is a solid rebounder but won't receive enough playing= =20 time to be a valuable Fantasy player. =20 Greg Buckner , G DAL - Free Agent Updated 12/08/00=20 Buckner will undergo surgery early next week to remove a cracked bone spur= =20 on his right foot. The surgery could sideline Buckner for 6-8 weeks. Rook= ie=20 Donnell Harvey was activated form the injured list to make room for=20 Buckner. This is the second time this season that he has been sidelined= =20 with the same injury. Fantasy owners should avoid Buckner for he rest of t= he=20 season or until he is playing and producing on a consistent basis again. = =20 Charles Oakley , F TOR - Free Agent Updated 12/08/00=20 Oakley has served his league-imposed suspension and is eligible to return = to=20 the Raptors' lineup for Friday night's game at Golden State. "Oak," who wa= s=20 suspended for punching Clippers' point guard Jeff McInnis, has Fantasy valu= e=20 as a rebounder only, and isn't considered a real commodity outside of deepe= r=20 leagues. =20 Vince Carter , G TOR - Denvers Nuggets Updated 12/08/00=20 Although the team is calling him a game-time decision, it looks as though= =20 Carter will return to the court on Friday night against the Golden State=20 Warriors. Carter practiced with the team on Thursday, and is exciting abou= t=20 the prospect of playing against his former Tar Heel teammate, Antawn=20 Jamison. All signs point towards Carter's return by this weekend at the ver= y=20 latest, so add a little "Vinsanity" to your starting lineup next week. = =20 Grant Hill , F ORL - The Wave Updated 12/08/00=20 Hill was a game time scratch on Thursday night against the Nuggets. The=20 Orlando Sentinel is reporting that Hill is expected to return to the court = on=20 Monday when the Magic travel to Los Angeles for a date with the Clippers.= =20 Hill's return is long overdue for Fantasy owners who held onto his rights= =20 this season. Unless you have a number of solid forwards on your roster, giv= e=20 Hill the start this week pending any setbacks. =20 Hidayet Turkoglu , G SAC - Free Agent Updated 12/07/00=20 Turkoglu is suffering from a shoulder injury and is questionable for=20 Friday's game against Houston. He is a key reserve on the Kings' team but= =20 has very little Fantasy value. =20 Steve Nash , G DAL - Free Agent Updated 12/07/00=20 Nash returned to action against the Knicks Wednesday after missing two=20 straight games because of a calf injury. He didn't seem to be bothered by= =20 the injury as he scored 14 points and dished off for six assists. It is no= w=20 safe to play Nash on your Fantasy team again. =20 Donyell Marshall , F UTA - Free Agent Updated 12/07/00=20 Marshall is recovering from a sprained knee and is questionable for=20 Thursday's game against the Grizzlies. Look for starters Bryon Russell and= =20 Karl Malone to play extra minutes in his absence. Avoid using Marshall unt= il=20 he appears to be fully recovered. =20 Kevin Garnett , F MIN - Farragut Academy Updated 12/07/00=20 Garnett hurt his right ring finger in Tuesday's game and was scheduled to= =20 have it examined Wednesday. He is expected to play against the Wizards=20 Thursday. Monitor Garnett's situation. Something as simple as an injured= =20 finger on his shooting hand could lead to an offensive slump and affect his= =20 Fantasy numbers. =20 Terry Davis , F DEN - Free Agent Updated 12/07/00=20 Davis will be eligible to come off the injured list Sunday but Achilles=20 tendonitis in his right leg is expected to keep him sidelined a little bit= =20 longer. He has been injury prone throughout his career and doesn't have mu= ch=20 Fantasy value. =20 Antonio McDyess , F DEN - The Rounders Updated 12/07/00=20 McDyess suffered a bruised right shin in Wednesday's game against the Heat= =20 and is questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Magic. Keon Clark= =20 will start at power forward if McDyess is unable to play. The leg is sore= =20 now but look for McDyess to be back to normal in a few days. =20 Grant Hill , F ORL - The Wave Updated 12/07/00=20 Hill may be ready to return to the court for Thursday night's game against= =20 the Nuggets. He has missed most of the season with an ankle injury, but he= =20 practiced on Wednesday, and all indications signal his return to the court.= =20 "I can't give you the official thumbs up," said Head Coach Doc Rivers, "but= =20 it looks good." Fantasy owners who have been waiting for Hill's return will= =20 likely get him back in time for next week, when Orlando embarks on a=20 four-game West Coast road trip. =20 Gary Trent , F DAL - Free Agent Updated 12/07/00=20 According to The Dallas Morning Star Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is hopeful= =20 that Trent will travel on the Mavericks' next road trip, a six-game swing o= n=20 the East Coast. Trent is not expected to be activated on the trip but coul= d=20 be back in action in another two weeks. He has been sidelined since the=20 first preseason game with a strained upper abductor muscle. Trent is a goo= d=20 inside scorer and a solid rebounder but is injury prone. When he does retu= rn=20 Fantasy owners should refrain from picking him up unless they desperately= =20 need a forward. =20 Stephon Marbury , G NJ - The Old School Fools Updated 12/07/00=20 Marbury missed his second consecutive game on Wednesday night because of a= n=20 ankle injury. He turned the ankle last Friday night in Orlando, then turne= d=20 it again the following night against the Magic back in New Jersey. He is=20 still lacking some of his explosiveness, but says that the pain in the ankl= e=20 is diminishing. Marbury hopes to return on Friday night when the Nets host= =20 the Phoenix Suns. Fantasy owners who lost Marbury last week should have the= ir=20 star point guard back in time for next week's roster changes. =20 Vince Carter , G TOR - Denvers Nuggets Updated 12/07/00=20 Carter was in uniform for Wednesday night's game against Portland, but he= =20 didn't see any playing time. "Air Canada" said that he felt well enough to= =20 play, but team doctors wouldn't give him permission to get in the game. "We= 'd=20 like to have him back as soon as possible," said Head Coach Lenny Wilkens,= =20 "but we're not going to bring him back before he's ready." Toronto finishes= =20 their three-game West Coast swing on Friday night against Golden State, at= =20 which time Carter hopes to make his return. The Raptors' star should be bac= k=20 before Monday, so most Fantasy owners can re-insert him into their lineup i= n=20 time for next week. =20 Andre Miller , G CLE - The Rounders Updated 12/07/00=20 Miller took a knee to the nose during Wednesday night's game at Chicago=20 which sent him to the bench temporarily. He returned to the game with a=20 vengeance, finishing with 20 points, 14 assists and seven rebounds in=20 Cleveland's 92-88 victory. The shot to the nose won't keep Miller from=20 missing any playing time, so continue to use the young point guard in your= =20 starting lineup. =20 Elton Brand , F CHI - Denvers Nuggets Updated 12/07/00=20 Brand missed his second consecutive game on Wednesday night against=20 Cleveland. He is reportedly making progress with his hyperextended left kne= e,=20 and has been able to run on a treadmill this week. Brand is listed as day = to=20 day, and says that he has about a 50 percent chance of playing on Friday=20 night against Dallas. With most roster changes occurring on Monday, Fantasy= =20 owners should be able to put the Bulls' star back in their lineup for next= =20 week's games. =20 Eric Snow , G PHI - Rude Boys (Not) Updated 12/06/00=20 The 76ers will be without Snow for six to eight weeks after a CT scan=20 Wednesday showed a stress fracture in his right ankle. He was second on the= =20 team with a career-high 12.2 ppg, and led the Sixers with 6.6 assists per= =20 contest. Although Philadelphia sports a deep roster, one can't help but=20 assume this will have an impact on the team's fortunes for Fantasy purposes= . =20 Chris Dudley , C PHO - Free Agent Updated 12/06/00=20 Dudley will travel with the Suns on their end of the week road-trip that= =20 starts in Milwaukee Thursday. He will most likely be questionable for all= =20 the games. Look for him to finally return to action next week. With Dudle= y=20 out of the lineup Corie Blount and rookie Daniel Santiago will continue to= =20 get playing time. With the lack of depth at center, Dudley's rebounding=20 makes him a starter on your Fantasy team if you are using a reserve in his= =20 position. =20 Chris Mills , F GS - Free Agent Updated 12/06/00=20 Mills is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Lakers because of pain = in=20 his right ankle. He was scheduled to see a foot specialist on Tuesday and= =20 underwent surgery last season to remove bone spurs from the ankle. Sit Mil= ls=20 on your Fantasy bench for now. If you are playing in a small league drop h= im=20 from your roster and add another forward. =20 Ron Mercer , G CHI - The Old School Fools Updated 12/06/00=20 Mercer sat out of Tuesday's game against the T'Wolves because of the flu. = =20 Corey Benjamin started at shooting guard in place of Mercer. Mercer's stat= us=20 for Wednesday's game is up in the air. He has been a major disappointment = so=20 far this season. If you play in a deep Fantasy league keep him on your=20 roster, if you are in a smaller one look to make an upgrade at guard. The= =20 way Mercer has been producing you shouldn't have a hard time finding a bett= er=20 guard. =20 More Updates=20 Breakdown?Schedule?=20 Farragut Academy =20 Player =20 Pos =20 Points =20 Best, Travis =20 G=20 129.5=20 Bradley, Shawn =20 C=20 69.0=20 Garnett, Kevin =20 F=20 126.0=20 Hughes, Larry =20 G=20 120.5=20 O'Neal, Jermaine =20 F=20 112.0=20 Rose, Jalen =20 G=20 150.0=20 [IMAGE]=20 TOTAL =20 ?=20 707.0 =20 [IMAGE]=20 Cassell, Sam =20 G=20 79.5=20 Fortson, Danny =20 F=20 0.0=20 Martin, Kenyon =20 F=20 99.5=20 McGrady, Tracy =20 G=20 102.0=20 Odom, Lamar =20 F=20 84.5=20 Olowokandi, Michael =20 C=20 53.5=20 [IMAGE] at Tribe Called PLove =20 Player =20 Pos =20 Points =20 Allen, Ray =20 G=20 94.5=20 Armstrong, Darrell =20 G=20 51.5=20 Battie, Tony =20 C=20 41.0=20 Bryant, Kobe =20 G=20 180.0=20 Camby, Marcus =20 C=20 124.5=20 Ewing, Patrick =20 C=20 57.5=20 Mashburn, Jamal =20 F=20 62.5=20 Nowitzki, Dirk =20 F=20 155.5=20 Outlaw, Bo =20 F=20 22.0=20 Wallace, Rasheed =20 F=20 70.5=20 Webber, Chris =20 F=20 168.5=20 Wesley, David =20 G=20 99.5=20 [IMAGE]=20 TOTAL =20 ?=20 1127.5 =20 [IMAGE]=20 ?=20 ?=20 ?=20 Copyright 2000 Commissioner.COM Inc and SportsLine.com Inc.
