Stoudemire, Amar'e (NY)
Latest News:
05.09.12
Amar'e Stoudemire played in 47 games during the regular season for the Knicks and averaged 17.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1 block and 0.8 steals a game.
Impact:
Stoudemire battled injuries at the end of the regular season and then had to deal with his self-inflicted hand injury in the playoffs. He clearly has yet to mesh with Carmelo Anthony offensively and his production is taking a hit as a result. Hopefully they can learn to play with each other during a full offseason, but Stoudemire is likely to see decreased numbers again next season with Anthony being the primary offensive option.
05.09.12
Despite playing in Game 4, Amar'e Stoudemire is still limited because of the stitches in his injured left hand, Shandel Richardson of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact:
He can't dunk with two hands and is essentially playing defense one-handed. Regardless, Stoudemire was able to post a 20-10 line in Game 4 and remains a solid option in playoff leagues while the Knicks are still alive.
05.06.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (hand) scored 20 points to go along with 10 rebounds and one assist Sunday as the Knicks defeated the Heat in Game 4, 89-87.
Impact:
Stoudemire started and played 34 minutes Sunday, showing he was able to play well despite his hand injury. The Knicks pulled out the big win, so Stoudemire will get another chance to keep the season alive in Game 5.
05.06.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (hand) is in the starting lineup for Game 4 against Miami on Sunday, Newsday's Al Iannazzone reports.
Impact:
After missing Game 3, it remains to be seen how much Stoudemire's hand issue will hamper him Sunday, but he'll be out there as the Knicks try to avoid being swept in their playoff series by Miami.
05.05.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (hand) went through solo running, catching and shoot drills Saturday and Knicks interim coach Mike Woodson said he thinks Stoudemire is going to play in Game 4 Sunday against the Heat, the New York Post reports.
Impact:
Woodson said of Stoudemire, "I think he's going to play, but I'm not 100 percent sure. I'm going to talk to the doctors." He also said if Stoudemire does play, his could play limited minutes and may not start. With the Knicks facing elimination, they need every available player they can get.
05.05.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (hand) is a game-time decision for Game 4 against Miami on Sunday, Newsday's Al Iannazzone reports.
Impact:
Stoudemire was previously optimistic that he would play Sunday, so the game-time-decision status could be cautious wording on the part of coach Mike Woodson. Stoudemire is in any case no guarantee to start even if he does play.
05.04.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (hand) is likely to play in Sunday's Game 4 against Miami, New York Newsday reports.
Impact:
Stoudemire had been listed as doubtful for Game 4, but previously insisted that he has a "great chance" of playing Sunday. It's unclear how much Stoudemire will be inhibited by his injury, but his presence may prove inconsequential, as the Heat looked dominant in the two games Stoudemire was healthy.
05.03.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (hand) has officially been listed as "doubtful" for Sunday's Game 4, the Knicks' official Twitter account reports.
Impact:
Although he originally thought there was a "great chance" he would play in Game 4, the team officially listed him as "doubtful" on Thursday. He has been ruled out for Thursday night's Game 3.
05.02.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (hand) said there is a "great chance" he'll play in Game 4 on Sunday against the Heat, nj.com writer Alex Raskin reports.
Impact:
Stoudemire has already been ruled out of game 3, so getting him back on the possible brink of elimination would be a huge emotional boast for a Knicks' team that has laid a major egg so far in the playoffs.
05.01.12
Amar'e Stoudemire saw a hand specialist Tuesday in New York, where he had a small muscle repaired, the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact:
Stoudemire has already been ruled out for Thursday's Game 3 after he directed an outburst at a glass fire extinguisher case immediately following Monday's loss in Game 2, lacerating his left hand as a result. He is listed as doubtful for Game 4 on Sunday, and his status thereafter will be assessed by the game for the rest of the series.
05.01.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (lacerated hand) will miss Game 3 and his status for the remainder of the series is 'doubtful', New York Newsday reports.
Impact:
The injury was a result of Stoudemire shattering a fire extinguisher's glass casing with his left hand after Monday's Game 2 loss to Miami. It is bad news for Stoudemire, but the Knicks have become used to playing without him, as he missed 13 of the final 17 regular season games with a back injury. The Knicks won nine of those 13 games, and saw Carmelo Anthony's production increase considerably.
04.30.12
Amar'e Stoudemire lacerated his left hand in a locker room incident following New York's Game 2 loss to the Heat, CBSSports.com reports.
Impact:
Paramedics were needed and a fire extinguisher's glass enclosure was shattered, the report adds, so it sounds like it could be a significant injury.
04.26.12
Amar'e Stoudemire scored 21 points on 9-of-15 shooting to help the Knicks beat the Bobcats on Thursday.
Impact:
Stoudemire played just two quarters, as teammates Carmelo Anthony, Tyson Chandler and Baron Davis sat out altogether. With the victory, the Knicks clinched the Eastern Conference's No. 7 seed and a first-round playoff matchup against No. 2 Miami beginning Saturday.
04.24.12
Amar'e Stoudemire says he will play Wednesday and Thursday if the Knicks can improve their seeding heading into the playoffs, New York Newsday reports.
Impact:
The Knicks are currently tied with Philadelphia for the seven and eight seeds in the East, and the six seed is still a possibility for both teams. With the Clippers and Bobcats remaining on the Knicks' schedule, Stoudemire wants to help his team earn the highest seed possible. His minutes and production increased in his second game back since returning from a back injury, scoring 22 points and grabbing 12 boards in 34 minutes.
04.22.12
Amar'e Stoudemire started at center Sunday, replacing a resting Tyson Chandler, in New York's win over Atlanta.
Impact:
Stoudemire was playing in his second game back from a 13-game absence due to a back injury. He had 22 points (9-of-13 FG) and 12 rebounds in 34 minutes, seven more minutes than he played Friday.
04.20.12
Amar'e Stoudemire returned Friday after missing 13 games with a back injury, shooting well from the floor (5-11 FG, 5-8 FT) on his way to 15 points as New York stunningly lost on the road at Cleveland.
Impact:
Stoudemire chipped in four blocked shots, three rebounds, and one steal while committing three turnovers in a foul-laden 27 minutes for the Knicks. There were no apparent setbacks following the game, but look for Stoudemire to limit the fouls as the playoffs approach in order to foster consistency in his game.
04.20.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (back) will return to the Knicks and start on Friday, New York Newsday reports.
Impact:
The Knicks have already clinched a playoff spot but certainly want to integrate Stoudemire back into their offense before the first round begins. Much has been made about the offensive dynamic between Carmelo Anthony and Stoudemire, but even with Stoudemire playing second fiddle, he's still averaging 17.6 points and 8.0 rebounds per game on the season. He might not achieve that level of production in his first game back, but could replicate those numbers in the other remaining games.
04.19.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (back) will participate in the team shootaround Friday and could play that night, New York Newsday reports.
Impact:
Stoudemire is getting close to his long awaited return which could very well happen this week. Look for updates leading up to Friday's game. Owners should start their Amar'e engines for a late season boost.
04.17.12
Amar'e Stoudemire (back) hopes to return Friday against the Cavaliers, the New York Post reports.
Impact:
Stoudemire was originally targeting a return Wednesday against the Nets, but it looks like the Knicks will err on the side of caution and hold him out until Friday.
04.16.12
Amar'e Stoudemire's (back) earliest return figures to occur Friday (at Cleveland) or Sunday (at Atlanta), The New York Times reports.
Impact:
Unless things look up in the short term, it looks like Stoudemire will miss at least two more games, Tuesday against the Celtics and Wednesday against the Nets. His eventual return will likely be sudden, meaning fantasy owners should plan accordingly.
