Stoudemire posted 14 points (5-8 FG, 4-4 FT) and three rebounds in 11 minutes of action in his Mavericks debut Sunday against the Hornets.
Stoudemire had a rather efficient debut, though he only logged 11 minutes. It remains to be seen how Stoudemire will be utilized into the rotation on a daily basis, but deep league owners with an extra roster space could use a flier on the veteran to see how things go.
Sun Feb 22 201516:51Stoudemire will make Mavericks debut on Sunday
Stoudemire will make his Mavericks debut on Sunday.
Stoudemire is expected to come off the bench for the Mavericks on Sunday. He is likely to be eased into the rotation as a backup power forward/center behind Tyson Chandler and Dirk Nowitzki. With many strong offensive players already on the team, it is unclear how productive Stoudemire will be fantasy-wise.
Thu Feb 19 201512:23Stoudemire will not play Thursday or Friday
Stoudemire will not play Thursday or Friday, Earl Sneed of Mavs.com reports.
Stoudemire, who officially became a member of the Mavericks on Wednesday, will sit out Thursday in Oklahoma City and Friday versus Houston before making his expected dbut Sunday when Dallas hosts Charlotte. Coach Rick Carlisle said he wants to ensure Stoudemire's body is as healthy as possible before activating him, so it appears Dallas will be cautious with the oft-injured veteran, who has battled knee and back issues. It's unclear exactly what Stoudemire's role will be with his new team, but with a vastly improved supporting cast, he'll likely have less responsibility on the offensive end.
Wed Feb 18 201517:24Stoudemire will travel to Oklahoma City for Thursday's game
Stoudemire will travel to Oklahoma City for Thursday's game, Earl Sneed of Mavs.com reports.
Stoudemire cleared waivers Wednesday and the Mavericks made the signing official. The big man, who signed a minimum deal for the rest of the season, will presumably be available Thursday, though the team is yet to officially offer confirmation.
Mon Feb 16 201521:49Amar'e Stoudemire: Commits To Sign With Dallas
Stoudemire has committed to sign with the Mavericks, Real GM's Shams Charania reports.
The Mavs were believed the be the frontrunner for Stoudemire's services all along, and they'll add the 32-year-old to a frontcourt in need of depth after trading Brandan Wright to Phoenix earlier this season. Stoudemire, who was averaging 12.0 points and 6.8 rebounds in 24.0 minutes for the Knicks, will likely assume a similar workload with his new team, though he may not be asked to do as much offensively, given the presence of Monta Ellis, Chandler Parsons and Dirk Nowitzki. From a fantasy perspective, Stoudemire's value shouldn't undergo a drastic change, but his acquisition will likely result in fewer minutes for Greg Smith and Al-Farouq Aminu.
Sun Feb 15 201523:33Amar'e Stoudemire: Knicks Buy Out Contract
Stoudemire and the Knicks agreed to a contract buyout, the New York Daily News reports.
The buyout has been rumored for weeks, and the leading contenders to sign Stoudemire are the Mavericks and the Clippers. He'll likely come off the bench for whichever team he signs with, so a significant increase in minutes seems rather unlikely. Stoudemire's departure will free up a few more minutes in a frontcourt that includes Jason Smith, Lou Amundson, Cole Aldrich, Andrea Bargnani and Quincy Acy.

Stoudemire (ankle) posted five points, four rebounds, and one assist in 14 minutes of action Wednesday against the Magic.
He's averaging 8.2 points and 4.0 rebounds over the last four games and has struggled to make an impact in fantasy. He played well early in the season, but health concerns should keep him locked on the wire in most leagues.
Wed Feb 11 201510:34Stoudemire (ankle) will play Wednesday against Magic
Stoudemire (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Magic, Steve Popper of The Record reports.
Stoudemire had been viewed as questionable for the game after failing to practice a day earlier, but coach Derek Fisher indicated that with the exception of Carmelo Anthony (who is listed as doubtful to play), the Knicks would be at full strength Wednesday. The upcoming All-Star break will give Stoudemire eight days to recover from any residual ankle pain he experiences Wednesday, but look for him to be capped between 20 and 25 minutes against the Magic. To his credit, Stoudemire has been efficient in his limited action the last two games, scoring 13 points against the Warriors and dropping 14 on the Heat.

Stoudemire did not practice Tuesday and should be considered questionable to play Wednesday against Orlando, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
Stoudemire is essentially questionable for every game these days, but he's played in three straight after logging 20 minutes Monday in Miami. Check back on the veteran's status prior to Wednesday's 7:00 PM ET tip.
Sat Feb 7 201518:05Amar'e Stoudemire: (Ankle) Will Play Saturday
Stoudemire (ankle) will play Saturday against the Warriors.
Stoudemire returned from a five-game absence Friday, putting up nine points (3-4 FG, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 18 reserve minutes. Expect a similar workload, especially with Carmelo Anthony (rest) out of the lineup.
Sat Feb 7 201512:29Stoudemire (ankle) questionable for Saturday's game
Stoudemire (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game, The Record's Steve Popper reports.
He returned from a five game absence to play Friday, but with Saturday representing the game of a back-to-back, it would not be surprising to see Stoudemire get the night off.

Stoudemire (ankle) returned from a five game absence Friday, playing 18 minutes against the Nets. He scored nine points (3-4 FG, 3-3 FT) and added three rebounds, two assists, and one steal.
It is a relatively good sign for Stoudemire's health, and his fantasy value, that he was able to play 18 minutes. Though he's played more than 30 minutes many times this season, it was expected that he would see only limited court time Friday. Stoudemire has exceeded expectations so far this season. While he should always be treated as an injury risk, he can be highly productive during his healthy stretches.

Stoudemire (ankle) will be available to play in Friday's game against the Nets, Newsday reports.
Stoudemire has sat out the Knicks' past four games due to a combination of ankle and wrist injuries; however, the big man will be available to take the court Friday. Nonetheless, Stoudemire's minutes are expected to be monitored moving forward, which could cap his involvement in some contests. In any event, his return to action figures to boost the Knicks' front court options and help fantasy owners in need of decent point and rebounding contributions.

Coach Derek Fisher said he hopes to have Stoudemire (ankle) back for Friday's game against Brooklyn.
Stoudemire has missed four straight games after spraining both his ankle and wrist against the Hornets on Jan. 24. He's been working out recently, but the Knicks are handling his recovery on a day-to-day basis, so a final decision on his status for Friday's game may not come until after shootaround. On a positive note, Stoudemire appears to have moved past the knee swelling that plagued him earlier in the season, but he's expected to be on an unofficial minutes restriction of about 20 minutes when he returns. "There's evidence to show we need to be smarter on the type of load we place on Amar'e," coach Derek Fisher said.
Tue Feb 3 201517:53Stoudemire (ankle) ruled out for Tuesday's game
Stoudemire (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game.
The Knicks say Stoudemire is making progress, but he was labeled as doubtful and now we get confirmation that he will indeed need more time to heal. Jason Smith and Lou Amundson will get the start at the four and the five Tuesday.
Mon Feb 2 201513:44Stoudemire (ankle) doubtful for Tuesday's game
Stoudemire (ankle) is doubtful for Tuesday's game.
He had a good workout Sunday night, but coach Derek Fisher said Stoudemire probably would not play in Tuesday's game, which was the earliest he was going to be able to return from his current ailment. This should not come as a big surprise, and owners should temper their expectations for Stoudemire's availability and production over the rest of the season.
Sat Jan 31 201513:50Stoudemire (ankle) will not take court until Tuesday at earliest
Stoudemire (ankle) will not take the court until Tuesday at the earliest, The Record's Steve Popper reports.
This rules him out for Sunday's game, meaning he will miss at least four straight with the ankle injury. Prior to the injury he was only playing 10-20 minutes per game, so similarly underwhelming playing time should be anticipated upon his return.
Mon Jan 26 201510:12Stoudemire (ankle/wrist) without timetable to return to court
Stoudemire (ankle/wrist) is without a timetable to return to the court, The Record's Steve Popper reports.
He is dealing with a sprained left ankle, a swollen right knee and a sprained left wrist, so it could certainly be some time before Stoudemire returns to action. Stoudemire said he would bombard his injuries with rehab over the next few days and see how it feels, so owners will want to check back in on his status later this week.

Stoudemire returned after missing Friday's game, but sprained both his ankle and wrist during the game against Charlotte, finishing with one point (0-5 FG, 1-2 FT) and four rebounds. He is considered questionable for Monday according to Al Iannazzone on Twitter
After a promising start to the season, the injuries have finally caught up with Stoudemire and he is playing just 16 minutes a game over his last five games, averaging 6.0 points and 5.2 rebounds. As sad as it may be, Stoudemire will likely not be a reliable fantasy option again this season.
Sat Jan 24 201519:54Stoudemire sprained ankle during Saturday's game against Hornets...
Stoudemire sprained his ankle during Saturday's game against the Hornets but is expected to continue playing.
Stoudemire may feel some ill effects after the game, but as for now, it appears that he'll play through whatever pain he may be dealing with as he continues in his role off the bench.
