December 2, 2008 Carmelo Anthony played 30 minutes on Tuesday in a rout of the Raptors. He scored 23 points with six rebounds, three assists, two blocks, and one steal.
Our View:Anthony continues to benefit from Iverson being in Detroit, as Chauncey Billups is more likely to set 'Melo up than shoot.
December 1, 2008 Carmelo Anthony is dealing with a right elbow contusion, but expects to play Tuesday against Toronto, according to the Denver Post.
Our View:Anthony's scoring is down this season, but is still a solid fantasy performer while averaging 8.4 boards and just under four assists.
November 30, 2008 The AP reports that the Nuggets lost Carmelo Anthony in the second quarter after he aggravated a sore right elbow that’s been bothering him for two weeks. Anthony scored just two points, halting his NBA-best streak of consecutive games in double figures at 221.
Our View:The injury does not seem serious at this point, but you'll obviously want to monitor the situation closely. Anthony's scoring average (21.1) this season is his lowest of his career but his 8.7 rebounds are a career-high by a good margin.
