Player Notes
March 17, 2010
Danny Granger has been released from a hospital today after a CT scan on his head and neck found no problems after he took an elbow to the cheek at the end of last night's game against Charlotte, according to the Associated Press.

Our View:Granger will miss tonight's matchup against Cleveland as a result. Adjust your lineup accordingly, though it does seem like the Pacers' star should be back before too long.

Danny Granger led all scorers with 26 points in Tuesday's win over the Bobcats, and picked up eight rebounds and two assists as well.

Our View:Granger put up nice numbers for owners in this one, but was far from accurate. His 3-of-9 effort from downtown looked brilliant compared to his 9-of-25 shooting from the field and he also coughed up five turnovers. Still, he's managed to put up at least 24 points in five of seven games this month.
March 14, 2010
Danny Granger's game-high 29 points weren't enough to pull out a win for the Pacers on Sunday, as Indiana fell 98-94 to the Bucks.

March 12, 2010

Obviously this is a bit of a bummer for Granger owners, though he's at least been playing at a high level over the past month after struggling with health and somewhat inconsistent play the first few months of the season. Channing Frye was suspended one game as well, while Earl Watson, Roy Hibbert and Jason Richardson were all handed down with fines.
March 5, 2010

Our View:Granger hit 3-of-7 from downtown, but only made 9-of-23 from the field. Despite his strong numbers, one can't help but think what he could have put up if he was a little more accurate. He's shooting a career-low 40.6 percent this season.
