Arenas may play Wednesday

Source (fanball.com) (PG - was) | 0 comments.

According to the Washington Post, Gilbert Arenas may play on Wednesday against the Grizzlies instead of Thursday against the Cavs.

Our View: The matchup against the Grizzlies would be a better fantasy play, so check in on Arenas to see if he gets the start tomorrow. He has only appeared in one game this season, but had a double-double, so he could be valuable.

News: As expected, Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas was held out of Sunday night's game at Indiana to allow his surgically repaired left knee more time to rest. Arenas had 15 points against Detroit on Saturday night in his first game in 11 months, but coach Ed Tapscott says Arenas will not play back-to-back games and his playing time will be limited to about 28 minutes when he does appear. Tapscott says Arenas was "feeling fine" after playing against the Pistons. "No knee soreness at all, just the muscle soreness that comes with playing your first high-level game in a while." [...]

Gilbert Arenas is not expected to play in Sunday's game against the Pacers to rest his knee, according to the Sports Network.

Our View: He notched 15 points in his season debut against the Pistons Saturday, but should be held out of fantasy lineups for today. The Wizards have eight games left in the regular season.

News: Gilbert Arenas nearly had a heroic finish to his first game in almost a year. Instead, it was Kwame Brown -- of all people -- who blocked Agent Zero's shot in the final seconds against Detroit on Saturday. Arenas finished with 15 points and 10 assists in 30 minutes in his first game since April 27, 2008. The three-time All-Star had missed 156 of his team's previous 173 games, including playoffs, thanks to a knee injury that spawned two overeager comeback attempts and three surgeries over an 18-month span.

Gilbert Arenas hit just three of his 12 shots upon his return to the Wizards, but he scored 15 points, and dished out 10 assists in his team's 98-96 loss to the Pistons.

Our View: Arenas hit half of his four three-point shots, which is a positive, as is the assist total. He played 29 minutes in the contest, which bodes well for his fantasy owners the rest of the season.

Gilbert Arenas remains on track to make his season debut against Detroit on Saturday and, should he indeed play, is expected to start, according to the Associated Press.

Our View: Arenas has missed the entire year after undergoing left knee surgery but is apparently finally back to full strength. Though his minutes will be impossible to predict and he's not expected to play back-to-back games, he should still definitely be picked up if he's still available, if for no other reason than to ensure nobody else does given the possibility of him scoring 20-plus points a game.

News: Gilbert Arenas is on track to make his season debut Saturday. And if he does play for the Washington Wizards against the Detroit Pistons, coach Ed Tapscott says the plan is for Arenas to start. Arenas has been sidelined since having surgery in September. It was the third operation on his left knee in 1.5 years. The three-time All-Star point guard did some shooting but did not participate fully in Friday's light practice. Arenas already had left for the locker room by the time the practice court was opened to the media. The Wizards are 17-56. No NBA team has more losses. [...]

News: Gilbert Arenas practiced Tuesday and remains on course to make his Washington Wizards season debut against the Detroit Pistons on Saturday. "The plan was Saturday, and we're still working towards that end," interim coach Ed Tapscott said. "As we've got it planned out right now, he's going to play in selective games and no back-to-backs. As we work through the process of making sure that, as he comes back, we do it in a way that is beneficial to his health and our team development." The three-time All-Star offered various comeback scenarios in several different interviews Monday, including the possibility that he will play in only five of the Wizards' final nine games - the four home games plus the April 8 game at Cleveland. Arenas did not speak to reporters Tuesday. "He was unbelievable out there today just making the plays he normally makes," swingman Caron Butler said after practice. "He hasn't missed a beat. Gilbert looked good out there. He looked real sharp. I can't wait to see him out there live and see the response and the fans." [...]

Updating previous reports, guard Gilbert Arenas still plans to make his season debut on Saturday against the Pistons. He is coming off left knee surgery and was able to practice on Tuesday, the Washington Post notes. Arenas will not play in any back-to-back games down the stretch.

Our View: The Wizards have only 10 games left, and they have a back-to-back on April 1-2. Fantasy owners can feel free to add him to their benches, but we don't recommend counting on him.

Gilbert Arenas practiced on Tuesday and is expected to play on Saturday against the Pistons if everything goes well in the coming days. Since he won't be playing in back-to-back games, Arenas shouldn't be much of a consideration in weekly leagues, and owners in daily leagues should probably only consider Agent Zero if there are no other truly productive options on the waiver wire.

Arenas to play Saturday

Source (fanball.com) (PG - was) | 0 comments.

Gilbert Arenas intends to make his season debut Saturday against the Pistons following his long recovery from a third knee surgery, according to the Washington Times. He said, "I am anxious to see where the knee is. I can dominate practice without even trying. But in games, with the crowds and people flying at you and the adrenaline going, it is a lot different. I do not want to worry about where I am at the start of next season. I would rather get that timidness out of the way now."

Our View: Arenas feels no pain in his knee, but is not worth employing in fantasy lineups until he proves to be productive again.

News: Gilbert Arenas signaled through various sources Monday that a return to the court is possible this weekend against the Detroit Pistons. The Washington Wizards three-time All-Star, who hasn't played all season as he recovers from knee surgery, first sent a text message to Comcast SportsNet saying: "I'm playing Saturday against Detroit" and that he would subsequently play only in home games except for an April 8 road trip to Cleveland. After the team's morning shootaround, Arenas was asked by a Washington Post reporter if the news was true. "It's only true if I play on Saturday," he said. Arenas then told The Washington Times by phone that playing Saturday is "the plan" - but isn't set in stone. Somewhere in the middle was interim coach Ed Tapscott, who could only confirm that Arenas would not play Monday night against the Detroit Pistons. As for Saturday? "That's certainly a possibility, but not definitive yet," Tapscott said. [...]

News: The Washington Post has updated its previous report Monday on Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas. The report says Arenas kind of confirmed that he plans to try to play Saturday night against Detroit saying: "It's true if that's what ends up happening. First, I have to see how I feel in the practices this week, then I have to be totally cleared with the medical staff and then I have to talk to [interim coach Ed Tapscott] about a plan for how I'm going to play." Arenas did rule out the possibility of playing either Monday night against Chicago or Wednesday against Charlotte. And he said he only tentatively plans on playing two road games: at Cleveland on April 8 and at Boston April 15. That means no back-to-backs. The team will have three practices before Saturday's game. [...]

Gilbert Arenas says he hopes to play on Saturday at Detroit, according to the Washington Post. Arenas has not played all season as he has been recovering from his third knee operation.

Our View: Arenas still has to get in a couple of practices and be completely cleared by the medical staff. He has reportedly been practicing in some fashion since January, and he could provide a playoff boost to fantasy owners. However, it seems as if he will just be playing on occasion, rather than every consecutive game beginning on Saturday. Pick him up at your own risk, but be sure you are not sacraficing a solid contributor in the process.
