Michael Redd scored 14 points off the bench on Monday against the Wizards, hitting 4-of-9 shots from the field (including two threes) with four rebounds and three assists in 22 minutes. Redd has cracked double-figure scoring just twice in seven games and averaged 1.0 triples during that time. Move along.

Michael Redd started at shooting guard for a resting Grant Hill on Tuesday and hit 7-of-15 shots and three 3-pointers for a season-high 20 points and six rebounds in 28 minutes. The minutes were also a season high and Redd is playing better than we thought he would, scoring in double digits in five of his last seven games. He's worth a look in deep leagues, but the Suns play their third game in three nights on Wednesday, and it would be surprising if Redd suits up for that one.

Michael Redd hit 4-of-10 shots and a 3-pointer for 11 points and two 3-pointers in 19 minutes of Thursday's loss to the Rockets. He's hit double figures in four straight games, but is averaging just over 20 minutes during the run, thanks to his balky knees. If he starts getting 25-30 minutes per game he'll be worth a look, but unless you're in a very deep league, Redd still belongs on waivers.

Michael Redd came off the bench to hit 7-of-14 shots and zero 3-pointers for 14 points and four rebounds in a tough win at Milwaukee, his former hometown while playing for the Bucks. Redd has had a couple nice games this season, but still can't be trusted in fantasy leagues. But he deserves credit for fighting back from all the knee problems, and his return to Milwaukee tonight was a feel-good story.

Michael Redd is working to get comfortable in the Phoenix offense. "Whatever Coach decides to do as far as playing time, I'm rolling with it," he said. Redd played nearly 20 minutes in his season debut with the Suns, but hasn't seen over 15 minutes since that time. He's averaging 3.5 points on 26.7 percent shooting and should be nowhere near fantasy rosters right now.

Michael Redd was a DNP-CD in Wednesday's win over the Knicks. Coach Alvin Gentry was just paying a veteran respect when he said he could see Redd starting and playing 25-plus minutes per night. The reality is that Redd's torn up knees and 32-year-old body will prevent him from being an even average player at this point. Redd is shooting 23.8 percent in four appearances this season.

Michael Redd made some noise with talk of him starting before Friday's game, but finished with just two points on 1-of-5 shooting with one rebound and one assist in 13 minutes off the bench. Redd is going to be much too inconsistent for use in fantasy leagues, and will need easy looks like the ones he got on Thursday during his 12-point effort to do any damage.

Alvin Gentry is considering starting Michael Redd on Friday against the Nets. Gentry would start Redd over Jared Dudley in order for Dudley to serve as an offensive spark plug in the second unit. Nothing is set in stone, but Dudley's owners should keep tabs on the situation to see how it unfolds. Even if Dudley does come off the bench, we'd expect him to average between 28-32 minutes per night. Redd played 20 minutes in his debut on Thursday, scoring 12 points on 4-of-9 shooting from the floor.

Michael Redd returned from a massive struggle with two knee surgeries on Thursday, and played decently with 12 points on 4-of-9 shooting (including three treys) with no rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 19 minutes. As nice as the ball looked going through the hoop, we're not all that excited here. Aside from his wincing whenever he had truly open it up, Redd was the beneficiary of some really bad defense and we doubt he can sustain more than 20 minutes per night. Maybe he'll prove us wrong, but we feel good betting against it.

Coach Alvin Gentry claims he will consider starting Michael Redd in the future. We'll believe it when we see it. Redd is going to make his Suns debut Thursday, but he's 32 and off another knee surgery. We'd be surprised if he can play more than 20 minutes in a single game, let alone sustain health. Jared Dudley owners shouldn't be worried.
