The Warriors are already fielding trade offers for Stephen Jackson.
Jackson was acquired by Golden State as part of the massive five-player trade that sent Monta Ellis to Milwaukee, and although the Warriors have no plans to buy him out, the team has already received interest from other clubs about working a trade for the swingman. The team wants to make sure that Mark Jackson wants to work with Jackson, but it's possible the veteran is flipped elsewhere before Thursday's trade deadline.

Stephen Jackson was traded back to the Warriors on Tuesday in part of a deal swapping Monta Ellis for Andrew Bogut.
This is one of the more interesting landing spots for Jackson, as he was an instrumental part of the 'We Believe' Warriors playoff team but became vilified on his way out the door. That said, he'll be welcomed in Oakland with more optimism than in just about any other place that he could have gone. We'll have to get Mark Jackson's take on whether he wants to play Jackson at SG or SF, as Klay Thompson is the apple of ownership's eye. Either way, this could end Dorell Wright's fantasy value if Thompson gets 30 minutes per game.

Stephen Jackson (hamstring) did not play on Monday against the Nets.
Jackson is among the more talked about trade deadline guys, but he needs to be considered a low-end stash right now, at best. We don't know where he would land, we don't know if he's healthy, and we don't know if he'll be able to dominate the ball as he has done when he has held fantasy value in the past.

Stephen Jackson (hamstring) will not play on Friday, while Luc Richard Mbah a Moute (knee) will be active.
Jackson is a total mess right now, but it's worth pointing out that Andrew Bogut just called out Scott Skiles today -- and it's about time the mainstream media picks up on the fact that Skiles just isn't a good coach. Jackson is worth a look as a low-expectation, high-upside stash in hopes he gets traded in the next five days, while Mbah a Moute will steal 15-25 minutes out of the rotation if he plays.

Stephen Jackson said that he would love to play for the Bulls.
Jackson is currently away from the Bucks while they try to work out a trade before the March 15 deadline. He's a fit in Chicago as a scoring complement to Derrick Rose, but it's unclear if the Bulls want to invite trouble into their locker room. The Jackson rumors will heat up once we get closer to the deadline.

Stephen Jackson (hamstring) has no timetable for his return.
The only thing that will salvage Jackson's fantasy value this season is a trade out of Milwaukee. He and Scott Skiles have not seen eye-to-eye all season and there is no reason to think that is going to change at any point in the foreseeable future.

Stephen Jackson still isn't traveling with the Bucks because of soreness in his right hamstring.
Jackson has missed six consecutive games and is basically waiting to see if the Bucks can find a way to trade him. He might be worth stashing through the March 15 deadline, in case it happens -- if he's stuck in Milwaukee, his value will be crushed under Scott Skiles' heel.

Stephen Jackson (hamstring) did not practice on Monday.
Jackson's availability is a major question mark for Tuesday, as the veteran sat in Milwaukee's games before the All-Star break with the injury as well. The relationship between he and Scott Skiles has gone from bad to worse, and a trade remains the best hope that he can re-establish some sort of fantasy value this season. He hasn't played more than 20 minutes in a game since February 11, and is averaging 10.5 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.0 steals on 35.7 percent shooting.
