Dwight Howard hit just 2-of-4 shots and 5-of-11 free throws for nine points, but added 15 rebounds and three blocks in a tough win at Boston on Friday. Had Howard not been struggling coming in, we could chalk this up to Boston's tough defense. And we will.

Dwight Howard and Magic coach Stan Van Gundy had a private meeting at Howard's request to iron out issues regarding Van Gundy's "negativity" towards the team. Van Gundy took from the meeting that his approach was "draining the enthusiasm" from the team. The Magic responded with an inspired performance against Oklahoma City. Van Gundy's been on the hot seat at times and needs to keep productivity from his players high if he wishes to remain coaching in Orlando.Source: Orlando Sentinel (click again to close) | C | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

If they're correct, it's possbible that Nelson could play as soon as Dec. 2 against the Knicks, Our feeling is that is a very optimistic outlook on Nelson's return, and that mid- to late-December sounds more likely.Source: Orlando Sentinel

Jason Williams had seven points, six assists, four steals and a three in Friday's win at Boston.

There is a report that Nelson could return in early December, but Williams should hold his value until closer to Christmas (in our opinion).Related: Jameer Nelson

He is expected to miss four to six weeks. Nelson was injured in the fourth quarter of Monday night's win against Charlotte. This is the second straight season he has been sidelined. Nelson tore the labrum in his right shoulder in February and had surgery. In a surprise move, he returned for the NBA finals, struggling to regain his form as Orlando lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in five games.
