Carmelo Anthony, Stephen Jackson and Devin Harris all went down again on Monday night. Dr. A says to blame it on Nellie.

 Tony Allen-G-CelticsJan. 6 - 1:52 pm et
Tony Allen (sprained ankle) will miss Tuesday's game against the Hornets and could be out Wednesday against the Rockets as well.
He's a key reserve for the Celtics, but that doesn't translate into much in the way of fantasy value. Allen is averaging 7.9 ppg this year.

 Courtney Lee-G-MagicJan. 6 - 1:46 pm et
With Keith Bogans (foot/ankle) expected to miss Tuesday's game, rookie Courtney Lee will get his first career start on Tuesday.
There's no guarantee that Lee will hang onto the starting job, but he's shown some potential and is worth a look if you're in need of scoring, threes and steals in a deeper league.

 Austin Croshere-F-BucksJan. 6 - 12:34 pm et
The Bucks have waived F Austin Croshere.
The Boston Globe mentions the possibility that the Celtics could have some interest in the veteran forward. Regardless of where he ends up, the 33-year-old isn't likely to have any fantasy value this year.

 Zaza Pachulia-F/C-HawksJan. 6 - 12:25 pm et
Hawks backup center Zaza Pachulia was excused from Tuesday's practice due to an illness.
He could still play on Wednesday, but has a tough matchup against Dwight Howard and is only worth using in much deeper leagues.

 Dee Brown-G-SunsJan. 6 - 12:20 pm et
The Suns have released point guard Dee Brown.
The Arizona Republic points out that the timing of the move comes shortly after the Heat released point guard Shaun Livingston. Even if Livingston did land in Phoenix, he's still a long way from making any kind of fantasy impact.

 Marvin Williams-G/F-HawksJan. 6 - 12:15 pm et
An MRI on Marvin Williams' left shoulder did not indicate anything unusual, and he's a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against Orlando.
If Williams can't go, Maurice Evans is likely to get another start, but is not worth using right now. Evans hasn't hit double figures since December 12.

 Mike Dunleavy-G/F-PacersJan. 6 - 12:10 pm et
Barring any setbacks in Tuesday's practice, Mike Dunleavy (knee) is expected to make his season debut on Wednesday.
He will be playing limited minutes initially, so leave him on your bench for now and be prepared to exercise some more patience as he attempts to work his way into shape.
