Anthony Parker (back) will start on Friday against the Bulls.

Parker is averaging 6.4 points per game in 23.8 minutes, so he's not much of a fantasy option outside of extremely deep leagues. However, his return means owners spot-starting Daniel Gibson need to find a new alternative. Gibson will return to his usual role off the bench.

Anthony Parker (back) returned to practice Thursday.

Not good news for owners that were spot-starting Daniel Gibson. If Parker wakes up feeling good Friday, coach Byron Scott is expecting him to start against the Bulls. The veteran would likely reclaim his starting shooting guard gig. Parker is averaging 6.4 points in 23.8 minutes per game on the year.

Anthony Parker (back) will not play on Tuesday against the Warriors.

Parker left Monday's game with a back injury and didn't return, so this is hardly a shock considering Parker is 36 years old and has a history of back problems. Daniel Gibson will start in his place and is worth a look to owners in daily leagues who are trolling for 3-pointers.

Anthony Parker left Monday's game against the Bobcats with a back injury and will not return.

Parker has a history of back issues, meaning he could be looking at an extended absence. Daniel Gibson started the second half at shooting guard and is worth a look for deep leaguers in need of 3-pointers.

Anthony Parker has re-signed with the Cavs.

Terms of the deal were not immediately available, but he's another veteran off the market for teams looking to add a piece to the second unit. He'll return to a rebuilding Cavs team and could be worth a look for owners in need of a source of 3-pointer's toward the latter rounds of the draft.

The Celtics, Knicks and Cavaliers are all interested in free agent swingman Anthony Parker.

Parker is 36 years old, but he's one of the league's classiest players and he's still a solid defender with 3-point range. The Knicks and Celtics would likely only sign him for one year, while the Cavs may be willing to offer him a slightly longer deal.

The Knicks are interested in unrestricted free agent Anthony Parker.

New York also has Michael Redd on the radar, and it's clear the team is looking to add a shooter. With the Cavs thought to be willing to give Parker a multi-year deal, this is one target who may not be in New York's sights for very long.

Sam Amico of FOX Sports Ohio reports that the Cavs are planning to offer Anthony Parker a multi-year deal.

Any deal would likely run for two years. Parker has been a solid role player for the Cavs, but is only on the radar in deeper fantasy leagues after averaging 8.3 ppg last season.

According to ESPN's Marc Stein, the Cleveland Cavs have made it a priority to re-sign Anthony Parker after the lockout.

The Cavs are hopeful that Parker can play a lot of shooting guard to clear major minutes for newcomer Omri Casspi. Even if he winds up playing a lot of minutes in Cleveland, his fantasy ceiling is fairly limited outside of his ability to hit the 3-point shot.

Anthony Parker hasn't ruled out re-signing with the Cavaliers when the lockout ends.

Parker is 36 years old, but remains a solid defender and perimeter player who has shot 41% from downtown for his career. Returning to Cleveland is not a given, however -- he has also been linked with the Bulls (who need help at SG) and he could opt to play overseas during the lockout.

Cavs free agent guard Anthony Parker could easily end up with the Bulls this season.

He's reportedly already moved out of his Cleveland home and is from Napervile, Ill., making him a good fit, especially because the Bulls are not stacked at shooting guard. He's also very likely to play overseas during the lockout, as he already has experienced playing in both Israel and Italy professionally in the past.

Cavs swingman Anthony Parker will be an unrestricted free agent this summer.

Parker is 36 years old but he's still effective and plans to play for at least one more season. "I was comfortable [in Cleveland]," said Parker. "I really liked our team and situation. I wanted to be here when things turned around."

Anthony Parker, who was iffy coming in with a back injury, started and hit 2-of-7 shots for five points in 24 minutes.

He was pretty useless in fantasy leagues this season, and will probably write the same story next year.

Anthony Parker is listed as a game-time decision for Wednesday's finale against the Wizards.

Parker wants to play as it could be his last NBA game. But even if he does play, he'll likely share minutes with Manny Harris and Daniel Gibson. There's no upside here in fantasy.

Anthony Parker admitted that his career may be over if there is a lockout.

Parker is an impending free agent and will be entering his age-37 season. If the NBA takes a full year off, it's unclear if teams will show interest. Meanwhile, Parker remains questionable for Wednesday's season finale.

Anthony Parker will miss Monday's game with his back injury.

Manny Harris is getting some love from Byron Scott lately and will start, while Ramon Sessions and Daniel Gibson will also get more minutes tonight.

Anthony Parker left Saturday's game with back spasms in the third quarter, finishing with no points, one rebound, and one assist in seven minutes.

It's possible that he gives way to the younger guys, and as a low-end play at best, he can safely be ignored in fantasy leagues. Manny Harris started the second half in his place, but has just five points and one assist early in the third quarter.

Anthony Parker, who hit 7-of-9 shots in his previous game, hit 6-of-9 and two threes on Wednesday for 14 points.

He could be heating up and is worth a fantasy look as Daniel Gibson continued to struggle with just seven points in 20 minutes.

Anthony Parker scored 20 points on 7-of-9 shooting (4-of-4 from downtown) with seven rebounds and two assists in the Cavs' win over the Heat on Tuesday.

He yelled to the crowd after the game that they "deserved this," and it might not have happened had Parker not stuck some high degree of difficulty shots down the stretch. Parker has not done double-digit anything in a long while, but for at least one night, he put on a show.

Anthony Parker disappointed in the Cavs' 95-85 loss to the Warriors on Tuesday, scoring six points on 2-of-9 shooting (including a three) with two rebounds, two assists, and a steal in 28 minutes.

He has been an inconsistent, but sometimes productive player that is worth a look if you need a starting guard. Just don't pass up on a hot free agent to own Parker while his production is wavering.
