Per Ian Begley of ESPN New York, New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony (shoulder) will return tonight against the Denver Nuggets.
Derrick Rose (back) will miss his second straight game and fourth of the last six.
Carmelo Anthony will play tonight against Denver; Derrick Rose (back) will not play, the Knicks say.

It’s good news for Anthony as he made it clear this week, after missing the game against the Golden State Warriors, that Saturday’s return to Denver is a must-win for the Knicks.
