Fantasy Basketball Daily News: Big Baby Edition (1/26/10)
Jan 26, 2010 Blog
Glen ‘Big Baby’ Davis wants to drop the ‘Big Baby’ nickname. Hey Glen, maybe if you quit acting like a spoiled, crying baby then people might quit calling you big baby. Maybe the recent $25k fine for obscenities yelled at a fan will get through to him. Earlier in the year Davis suffered a hand injury while getting in a fight. Changing your name isn’t going to change your character, just ask J.R. Smith, who wanted to change his name to Earl this season.

Fantasy Basketball Player News and Notes:
- Marcus Thornton got the start with Devin Brown traded to the Bulls. He makes a nice pickup.
- Monta Ellis is out Tuesday.
- Wilson Chandler is likely out on Tuesday with a groin injury. Larry Hughes could see some extra minutes.
- Nate Robinson is likely out Tuesday with a hamstring injury.
- Al Harrington is dealing with a sore knee, but should play Tuesday. His stats have been down and I’d probably keep him benched until he shows he’s healthy.
- Ron Artest should play Tuesday.
- Nicolas Batum was able to return for Portland and log 10 minutes.
- Carmelo Anthony missed last night, Joey Graham got the start. Melo should be back for his next game. Arron Afflalo also got extra minutes and had a big game.
- Al Horford suffered a cut on his left finger and had to get stitches. He returned to the game, but his was less effective. Be careful starting Horford in his next game.
- Chris Andersen suffered a sprained ankle against the Bobcats.
- Kenyon Martin got ejected in the second quarter against the Bobcats.
- George Hill got another start for the Spurs Monday and might be worth a look in larger leagues.
- Jamario Moon was able to return for the Cavaliers after missing a few games with an abdominal injury.
