- Anthony Morrow missed Monday because his flight was late. He is healthy and should be ready for his next game.
- James Harden is starting to get more minutes and he showed what he can do last night scoring 26 in 30 minutes. I dropped Harden in the GMTR.com Keeper league to pickup Hibbert when Brand got sent to the bench and J. O’Neals injury concerns. I might regret that move.
- Video of Andre Iguodala’s full court shot from Fanhouse.com.
- Louis Amundson will be available for Phoenix on Tuesday after missing Saturday and Sunday with the flu.
- Kirk Hinrich is out at least two more games with a sprained thumb.
- Is Jerryd Bayless trade bait now that Greg Oden is gone for the season? If you are in a keeper league and find yourself out of the race and looking to rebuild, Bayless might be a good gamble for next season. It is defintely a low risk gamble that could pay off big if Bayless ends up in the right place.

- Chris Kaman says his lack of energy lately has finally been diagnosed by doctors as a Vitamin D deficiency. [Los Angeles Times]
- Jamaal Tinsley missed practice Monday with a sore back. Mike Conley’s minutes should be safe, but his matchup against Cleveland on Tuesday just isn’t good.
- Chris Paul has some soreness in his ankle, but he will play Tuesday. He got 38 minutes in his first game back and I would expect that he probably gets something close to that tonight. New Orleans can’t afford too many more losses.

- Kevin Martin is still at least three weeks away from returning.
