03:40 PM ET 03.16 | While it's the New York Knicks' frontcourt players, Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire, that are currently ailing, the team is reportedly "monitoring" the status of free agent guard Delonte West. Currently scheduled to suit up for his first game with the D-League's Texas Legends soon, West hasn't played in the NBA this season but is one of the most qualified players still available. And while his inactivity has its negatives, he's still eligible for the postseason if signed by an NBA team because a player must be waived after March 1 to lose his playoff eligibility. With Raymond Felton, Jason Kidd and Pablo Prigioni as New York's only point guard options, West may be able to help.

May be risky but it's insurance and some young legs to help out.

Recycled from 2 days ago... I thought that if you add a new player to the team now, he won't be available for the playoffs.

True but he could help Woodie get his key guys some rest heading into the playoffs.

I agree. Delonte is a bit of a risk.The Knicks like players who are old or drama queens. Delonte is not that old, but hopefully he's enough of a drama queen for the Knicks. If not, then it's indeed a risk.

Stop it.
