Nuggets center Nene Hilario is taking a cautious approach with his strained right hamstring. Head coach George Karl told the Rocky Mountain News that he doesn't expect the big man to play in Thursday's first game against the Hornets because of the injury.

Nene dealt with a lingering hamstring injury last season and is very hesitant to push himself back too quickly this time around. For someone who had so much potential when he came into the league three years ago, it's remarkable to consider the Nuggets essentially got themselves another Marcus Camby minus the offensive upside. Fantasy owners should steer clear of Hilario.
