Injury Report: Courtney Lee and Tony Battie, Back Next Week?

by Mark Ginocchio

Some news out of Nets practice today. Devin Harris still seems to be a definite go off the bench tomorrow against the Knicks, though expectations as to how much he’ll play are being kept to a minimum.

Meanwhile, Courtney Lee is looking possible for Tuesday against Denver, and Tony Battie, who hasn’t played a single game yet this season, could follow soon after.

From the Post’s Fred Kerber:

“I practiced a little bit today,” (Courtney) Lee said. “Timmy (athletic trainer Walsh) just wants to make sure, be 100 percent positive that when I come back it won’t be (any) re-occurring injury. I’m fine with it. It definitely (stinks) sitting on the side watching my guys go out there and play.”

And here’s Tony:

“I’m making huge strides,” Battie said but cautioned against any sort of timetable. “I went through practice, let’s just see how it feels.”
