Carmelo Anthony
It looks as if one of the Denver Nuggets will be called to replace Chris Paul in the Western All-Star lineup if indeed Chris can not play because of his pulled groin.
CP3 will undergo an MRI tomorrow and once the results are in, Paul and the Hornets will make a decision on All-Star Weekend.
Since groin strains are likely to linger for a few weeks, the Hornets would likely persuade Paul to sit out, so they can continue on their quest for homecourt advantage in the playoffs.
A replacement for Paul could come out of Denver. Both Carmelo Anthony and Chauncey Billups have played exceptional thus far in the season and it would not be a shock if Stern selected either Nugget to play.
