Got a lot on the plate for this Thanksgiving week, so be sure to feast on Pro Basketball News. Coming this week:
You fantasy players that own Tracy McGrady may want to plan for other arrangements in the immediate future. Check back later today for details.
Meanwhile, Magic head coach Stan Van Gundy hasn't gotten what he's wanted out of his bench yet this season, and won't have his most reliable contributor, swingman Keith Bogans, for the next four-to-six weeks. Could wind up being the best thing that happened to J.J. Redick and Courtney Lee, though. Find out why on Wednesday.
In Milwaukee, lottery pick Joe Alexander is struggling to find his niche, but second-round pick Luc Richard Mbah a Moute has quickly become an invaluable part of Scott Skiles' rotation. He still makes rookie mistakes, but is well on his way to becoming one of the NBA's primary glue guys as his career takes shape. Look for that when you're gorging on post-Thanksgiving leftovers.
Don't forget the PBN package deal of daily power rankings and must-read links, as well as the ever-popular rumors page, which hooks you up with a one-stop shop for all you need to know, and Monday's Weekly Essentials, which many of you have nagged me for since you can't live without them.
Word on the street is that Eric Musselman has more knowledge to drop, while Sam Amico is handling buisiness up in Cleveland.
Check back often.
Monday's +/- report: Gerald Wallace (+16, 11 points) is still in Charlotte, so while he's there he may as well help the Bobcats win. He was very efficient is helping down the Sixers, 93-84... Andrew Bogut (-10, 7-for-9 FG) was putting together an impressive night before suffering a right knee contusion. Word is he's day-to-day... Jameer Nelson (+6, 8 points, 6 assists) also left the Amway Arena floor, succumbing to a groin injury that could cost him Wednesday night's homecoming game in Philadelphia...Yao Ming (+11, 28 points, 12 rebounds, four assists) led the Rockets to a clean sweep of their three-game road swing through D.C., Orlando and Miami... Udonis Haslem (-14, 2 points, 7 rebounds) had the unenviable task of guarding Yao and didn't fare too hot... Forgettable night for Memphis rookie Darrell Arthur (-16 in 12:16) off the bench against San Antonio. Meanwhile, Spurs newbie George Hill (+9, 20 points) might have fond memories of his trip to FedEx Forum... What's been wrong with the Hornets? Chris Paul (+16, 14 points, 10 rebounds, 17 assists) and David West (+17, 27 points) haven't had too many nights where they both go off like they did against the Clippers.
