Carmelo Anthony iffy for Thursday w/ finger
Carmelo Anthony - F - New York Knicks
Dec. 6, 2012 - 8:30 AM ET

Carmelo Anthony left Wednesday's game late with a laceration in his left ring finger that required six stitches.

Coach Mike Woodson initially said he'll play on Thursday, although Melo isn't so sure, saying his hand is numb. Consider him a game-time decision, which makes sense considering he just received that many stitches. He had 23 points and a full stat line, but hit just 8-of-23 shots before leaving. We're going to put Melo on the injury report and owners should watch for news on Thursday to make sure he's a go against the Heat in Miami.
