  • Don Nelson returned Thursday and Anthony Randolph got a DNP-CD.  Coincidence?   Nelson blamed it on Randolph’s sore ankle, but we’ll see what happens in the next few games.  Randolph is almost unplayable in daily leagues right now due to his uncertain minutes.

  • Kevin Love may return from a broken hand on Saturday.  Check your waiver wire just to make sure he isn’t out there. [ESPN]
