"Carmelo Anthony's injury status just went from day-to-day to week-to-week.

The star Knicks forward is expected to miss one-to-two weeks after straining his right groin in Monday's win over the Jazz. And the shorthanded Knicks will be without Amar'e Stoudemire again tonight in D.C., as he mourns the death of his brother in a car crash early Monday morning.

"I'm humbled by all of the thoughts and prayers I have received. Thank you for all of the support," Stoudemire said. "I'm going to take a few days to be with my family and grieve the loss of my big brother, Hazell Stoudemire. Although it is not clear to me now, I hope to make some good come from our tragedy.''"
