Amare Stoudemire of the New York Knicks could be out for a while. If he's on your fantasy team,
you should probably make plans to be without him for the rest of the season. Amare Stoudemire has
been diagnosed with a bulging disk in his back and the Knicks are saying he will be out for an
indefinite amount of time.
New York Knicks rookie bigman Josh Harrellson got the start on Saturday night and was really
impressive as the Knicks defeated the Sacramento Kings. He had 14 points and 12 rebounds, while
nailing 4-of-8 from downtown. In the fantasy basketball world, those stats look like gold for a
player available on the waiver wire.
Amare Stoudemire was out due to injury and the New York Knicks were on the road to take on the
Sacramento Kings. It turned out to be a walk in the park for the Knicks, who rode Carmelo Anthony's
23 points, seven rebounds and five assists to a 114-92 win.
The Knicks also got 22 points, seven rebounds and three blocks from Tyson Chandler, while Landry
Field chipped in with 21 points and five rebounds.
Amare Stoudemire is a walking injury concern. Just a couple games into this shortened season,
Amare Stoudemire has sprained his left ankle. The injury took place during the New York Knicks game
against the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night.
Officially, Amare Stoudemire is listed as day to day.
