Iverson To Make Nuggets Return; Camby Still Out
In the ROCKY MOUNTAIN NEWS, Aaron J. Lopez writes "so much for Allen Iverson's
aversion to practice. Still struggling to make sharp lateral cuts on his sore
right ankle, Iverson was an active participant in practice Tuesday and expects
to return to the lineup tonight after sitting out four games. Iverson at any
speed would be a welcome sight for coach George Karl. While Iverson expects to
play, center Marcus Camby expects to miss his second game in a row because of a
strained left groin."
With Nocioni Out, Bulls To Use Three Guards
In the CHICAGO TRIBUNE, K.C. Johnson writes "Chris Duhon, Ben Gordon and Kirk
Hinrich are as bothered as anyone that plantar fasciitis likely will sideline
Bulls teammate Andres Nocioni until after the All-Star break. But Nocioni's
injury, along with the re-emergence of Duhon, also will make the three guards
the beneficiaries of more playing time. 'It gives us the ability to play a
little faster,' Hinrich said. 'It gives us more flexibility because we're all
interchangeable.' "
