Our View:Earlier it seemed like nothing would happen with Melo until Friday, but he participated in Wednesday's practice and now it's up to the coaches to see if he's ready to be activated in two days.

Nene Hilario (ankle) and Ty Lawson (ankle) will be game-time decisions as well. |
|
January 6, 2010 Carmelo Anthony (bruised knee) is looking very iffy for Denver's next game on Friday, according to the Denver Post.

|
January 5, 2010 Carmelo Anthony (bruised right knee) "hopes" to play on Tuesday night against Golden State, according to the Denver Post. Our View:"I'm hopeful (for tonight's game)," were his exact words. "I think it was worse than everybody expected. The pain is little bit different; it was more of a deeper bruise than right there on the tip of the bone." So far, the injury has kept him out of two games. |
|
January 4, 2010 Carmelo Anthony's right knee contusion has turned out to be worse than the Nuggets originally thought, according to the Denver Post.

Officially, he's questionable for Tuesday against the Warriors. |
|
January 3, 2010 According to the Nuggets official Twitter page, Carmelo Anthony and Chauncey Billups will not play in Sunday's game against the Sixers.

|
January 3, 2010 Carmelo Anthony missed his first game of the season on Saturday with a sore knee, and is questionable to play on Sunday, according to the Denver Post. "It hurts when I try to extend it to full extension," Anthony said. "I tried to run on it earlier, but just the impact of me going up and down was hurting it. It really depends on how much tolerance I can take on it." Our View:'Melo is usually a very reliable play, but obviously today his status is in question. This could develop into a more serious injury if the Nuggets opt to play it safe. However, in the competitive Western Conference, they need to get him back in the mix soon to avoid slipping too far. |
|
January 2, 2010 The Denver Post reports that Carmelo Anthony is unlikely to play in Saturday's game against the Jazz due to a knee injury. Our View:Chauncey Billups has already been ruled out and it looks like Anthony is ready to follow suit.

Smith and Anthony Carter will both start if Billups and Anthony can't go. |
|
January 1, 2010 Carmelo Anthony is "probable" for Saturday against the Jazz as he deals with a knee injury, according to the Denver Post. Our View:He did not practice on Thursday.
