Wed Dec 22 2010 | 23:06 | Battie outplays Hawes on Wednesday |
Tony Battie had 10 points, six rebounds and four blocks on 5-of-8 shooting Wednesday. |
Battie may be being showcased for a trade back to the Magic, or might just be getting run because Spencer Hawes is in a funk. Either way, it's tough to see Battie holding much fantasy value this season, if any. |
Wed Dec 15 2010 | 02:00 | Battie (flu) returns to action on Tuesday |
Tony Battie (flu) returned to action on Tuesday, scoring four points on 2-of-3 shooting with four rebounds, no assists, and no steals or blocks in 13 minutes. |
This is a pretty good representation of what he does on most nights, and needless to say he doesn't have any fantasy value. |

Mon Dec 13 2010 | 12:28 | Tony Battie misses practice w/ flu |
Tony Battie did not at practice on Monday because of the flu, but he will travel with the Sixers for Tuesday's game vs. the Nets. |
Philly's backup big man won't be missed in fantasy leagues, as he's averaging just 11 minutes per game this year. |

Fri Nov 5 2010 | 23:17 | Battie plays 26 minutes in loss |
Tony Battie shockingly played 26 minutes off the Sixers bench for eight points, seven rebounds, a steal and a block on Friday. |
Spencer Hawes played just six minutes, although there were no reports of an injury, so Doug Collins must have just decided to roll with Battie tonight. He has no fantasy value right now, but is certainly worth keeping an eye on if Collins is down on Hawes. |

Mon Nov 1 2010 | 11:06 | Tony Battie fighting strained quad |
76ers center Tony Battie suffered a quad strain on Saturday and is listed day-to-day. |
Suffice to say, the veteran Battie would only surface as a viable fantasy option if injuries felled Spencer Hawes, Elton Brand, and Marreese Speights. |

Tony Battie (knee) will make his first preseason appearance of the season Tuesday night. |
Battie is going to get a start as the Sixers are resting some of their regulars. Once the season hits, Battie will just be used for spot minutes as a shot-blocking presence. |

Sat Oct 9 2010 | 10:15 | Tony Battie (knee) resting for Philly |
76ers big man Tony Battie (right knee inflammation) did not practice on Friday and is not expected to play in Saturday's exhibition. |
Battie is a tough veteran PF who should bring stability and leadership to Philly's second unit. This appears to be precautionary rest and he'll have more preseason game to tune up his game. |
