New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony will not play due to multiple injuries, and Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade will miss his seventh straight game, as the Knicks travel to South Beach tonight — a Heat spokesman told ESPN.
Melo is being shut down for a few days because of wrist, thumb and ankle injuries. Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni also says point guard Baron Davis is still not ready for his season debut. Davis has been battling back problems.
“He just can’t perform the way he (needs to),” D’Antoni said. “The medicial staff decided it best to take the weekend off.”
Coach D’Antoni also said that not only will Anthony miss Saturday night’s game in Houston, his return against the Pistons on Tuesday also is not guaranteed.
“He can’t make a shot and he’s playing through a lot of pain,” D’Antoni said. “It’s not going away and it just kept getting worse. We got to have him 100 percent. If not, it’s crazy to keep going.”
“I think I was trying to be a superhero, trying to prove to my teammates that I can play hurt, trying to hide it,” Anthony said. “But at the end of the day, me doing that wasn’t doing anything but hurting the team. I just wasn’t myself physically and it was taking a toll on me mentally.”
