Player Notes

West sat out the live portion of Monday's practice due to a strained right calf, the Indianapolis Star reports.
Recommendation: The partial practice appears to be nothing more than a precaution, as the Pacers said he will be good to go for Game 1 against the Heat.

Copeland played 56 games during the regular season and averaged 8.7 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.1 three-pointers a game. He saw his playing time decrease in the playoffs until the final two games of the series against the Indiana Pacers. He averaged only 4.1 points, 1.2 three-pointers and 1.0 rebound during the playoffs overall.
Recommendation: Copeland is a restricted free agent, and it's unclear if he will return as a member of the Knicks. He is an excellent shooter from behind the arc for his size and provides lots of energy on the defensive end. He may find himself a fairly desirable commodity this offseason and could really increase his fantasy value if he can land with a team who will give him extended minutes.

Lee plans to have surgery to repair a torn right hip flexor in the coming weeks, the Associated Press reports. He is expected to be ready for training camp.
Recommendation: Aside from the injury, Lee had a splendid season, averaging 18.5 points and 11.2 rebounds per game in 79 games. He's developed into a nice low-post scorer with a mid-range game and an ability to draw fouls. He's often knocked for playing sub-standard defense, but there's no doubting his impact offensively.

Landry finished up the regular season averaging 10.8 points and 6.0 rebounds in 23.2 minutes per game in 81 games for the Warriors in 2012-13. He averaged 11.8 points and 5.2 rebounds in 20.5 minutes per game during the Warriors' playoff run.
Recommendation: Landry will be mulling his player option for a second season with Golden State, though we don't see him getting the same level of playing time next year if all hands are healthy. He played a big role in 2012-13 due to Andrew Bogut's recovery from ankle surgery. But in the playoffs when David Lee (hip) was extremely limited, head coach Mark Jackson rolled with a three-guard lineup and Harrison Barnes at the four. Landry is a talented inside scorer and rebounder, but isn't a particularly tough defender and is not considered a must-have for Golden State.

Camby played only 24 regular season games for the Knicks and averaged 1.8 points, 3.3 rebounds and 0.6 blocks a game. He barely saw any action in the playoffs as he averaged just over one minute over three games played.
Recommendation: Camby was injured much of the season again and has struggled to stay healthy over the last few seasons. He is under contract with the Knicks for two more seasons, but is unlikely to provide much fantasy value considering he will have a limited role off the bench even when he is healthy.

Stoudemire said he wants to talk with coach Mike Woodson and the rest of the coaching staff about his role next season, ESPN New York reports.
Recommendation: Stoudemire had another injury-filled campaign and played only 29 games in the regular season as a result, many of which he came off the bench. He averaged 14.2 points, 5.0 rebounds and 0.7 blocks a game, all of which were either his career-low or very close to it. Although he returned in the second round of the playoffs, he played only limited minutes off the bench. Stoudemire's fantasy value has really decreased over the last couple of seasons, and it could continue to plummet if he can't post a healthy 2013-14 campaign.

Martin played 18 regular season games for the Knicks and averaged 7.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 0.9 blocks a game while shooting 60.2 percent from the field.
Recommendation: The Knicks signed Martin during the season when they experienced multiple injuries to their front line and it turned out to be an excellent signing. He provided them with defense and toughness up front, something they greatly lacked. Martin will be a free agent this summer and will likely only have limited fantasy value next season no matter where he signs.

Barron played in 12 regular season games, only one of which was for the Knicks. He did not appear in any games during the Knicks' playoff run.
Recommendation: Barron has played for six teams since the start of the 2010-11 season and isn't much more than a player who provides depth on the bench. Regardless of where he plays next season, he isn't likely to warrant fantasy consideration.

Novak played 81 games during the regular season for the Knicks and averaged 6.6 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.8 three-pointers a game. He played nine games during the playoffs and averaged only 2.0 points and 0.4 three-pointers a game.
Recommendation: Novak regressed this season after averaging 8.8 points and 2.5 three-pointers a game last season. He can provide fantasy owners with solid production from the behind the arc, but isn't likely to contribute much more than that again next season.

Garnett will not require off-season surgery to correct his foot/ankle issues, the Boston Herald reports.
Recommendation: Garnett dealt with a number of injuries last season and rarely played at 100 percent. The Celtics' medical staff believes rest will alleviate the veteran's issues, but only time will tell whether that will indeed be the case.

Duncan scored 19 points (7-13 FG, 5-5 FT) and added six rebounds, two assists, and three blocks en route to Thursday's Game 6 closeout victory against the Warriors.
Recommendation: Duncan has displayed his dominance all throughout his career, and this year is no exception. While the Spurs' window is possibly closing sooner rather than later, Duncan appears to be giving his all for perhaps one last chance to add to his championship total.
