GREENBURGH, N.Y. -- Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony says he will return to the court on Wednesday night against the Orlando Magic.
Anthony had missed six of the Knicks' past eight games -- and large portions of two of the past three he's suited up for -- with a right knee injury.
The Knicks are officially listing Anthony as "probable" for the game against Orlando, but Anthony said after Wednesday's shootaround that his knee is pain-free and he's ready to play.
"I feel good as of right now, so I'll be ready to play tonight," Anthony said.

Remember: Shump was used at PG in his rookie season. Can be much more effective w/ the ball in his hands. Shump's position development key.

Shump's offseason focus is developing better skills at PG, which team could use him at more next year. Developing midrange shot key. #Knicks
