"Amar'e Stoudemire is not expected to rejoin the Knicks until Monday, head coach Mike D'Antoni said on Wednesday.

Stoudemire left the team on Monday after his older brother Hazell died in a car accident in his home state of Florida.

Hazell Stoudemire, 35, was killed instantly when he rammed his speeding 2007 Cadillac Escalade into an orange-juice tanker on U.S. 27 in Lake Wales at 1:40 a.m., police said.

He wasn't wearing a seat belt.

"This is a tough time for him," D'Antoni said."
