Will Carmelo Anthony return to the court this week after spraining his ankle Monday in the Knicks' 103-98 win over Orlando?

Wednesday's game marked the first time Anthony sat out this season, Boston Globe reported. Shooting guard J.R. Smith became the Knicks' go-to scorer with Anthony sidelined. He scored 20 points, but was just 8-for-22 from the field. "He is a big piece to the puzzle,'' Smith said. "He is the piece to the puzzle, so it is tough." It has yet to be confirmed whether or not Anthony will be able to play against the Raptors on Friday at Madison Square Garden. The Knicks then play the Atlantic Division leaders again the next night in Toronto.

"I don't know, I really don't," Woodson said in regard to Anthony's status following Wednesday's defeat. "We'll assess it (on Thursday) before practice and see where we are."
