News and Notes
Nov 7 F Ron Artest said the Rockets were trying to get him ejected from their game with the Lakers on Wednesday night. Artest said Luis Scola and Trevor Ariza elbowed him early in the game. Yahoo! Sports

Nov 5 Artest played well in his return to Houston, scoring 15 points, highlighted by three 3-pointers, and grabbing six rebounds during Wednesday's win.

Recommendation: Artest played more than 40 minutes for the second consecutive night, but more attention was focused on his ability to keep his cool in his first game against the Rockets and former Laker Trevor Ariza.

Nov 3 After scoring 25 points in his previous three games, Artest posted a season-high 20 in a win over the Thunder on Tuesday.

Advice: Artest is not going to pour in a ton of points per contest, he's role player on this team and a moderate fantasy option overall.
