| Kobe to announce surgery date | Saturday 9/6, 4:26 PM CT |
|
Kobe Bryant will announce the date he plans on having his hand surgery on Monday via kb24.com according to the Orange County Register.
Our View: It is expected to take at least six weeks to fully recover but don't be surprised if Kobe pushes this. He should be ready to go for the Lakers season opener and it's doubtful he will show much rust. Kobe is a virtual lock as a top-3 selection in NBA fantasy circles. |

Our View: Jackson did not impress during the summer league, and won't likely hold any fantasy value in 2008. |

| Milicic pleased with idea of joining NY | Saturday 9/6, 9:52 AM CT |
|
Darko Milicic is pleased with the idea of being dealt to the Knicks in exchange for Zach Randolph, according to ESPN.
Our View: The main attraction to New York would be to play for coach Mike D'Antoni. Milicic's fantasy stock wouldn't increase much with the Knicks, and he would still only hold value in the blocks department. |

| Chalmers apologizes | Saturday 9/6, 9:45 AM CT |
|
Mario Chalmers apologized to the Heat and the NBA regarding his banishment from the NBA’s rookie symposium, according to the AP. He said, "Everyone who knows me knows I am a good person and I pride myself on doing the right thing. I am embarrassed this happened. I broke the rules, but I did not smoke marijuana. I made a poor decision in putting myself in the situation that I did. It is a dream of a lifetime to play in the NBA and be part of the Miami Heat. I look forward to starting my NBA career, this was a one-time occurrence and it won’t happen again."
Our View: A suspension is likely for Chalmers, and commissioner David Stern is very displeased with Chalmers' error in judgment. |

| GM denies talking with Gordon | Saturday 9/6, 9:39 AM CT |
|
The GM of CSKA Moscow denies that he had been talking with Ben Gordon regarding a contract to play overseas, according to ESPN.
Our View: Gordon was believed to be using the rumor as leverage to get a better deal from the Bulls. If he remains in Chicago, his playing time could decrease with a surplus of guards on the team. |
