Notebook: Miles Returns to Practice; Niang's Intangibles

C.J. Miles scrimmaged in practice for the first time in a couple of weeks Saturday, a development that raised as many questions as it answered.

Miles played in only the first preseason game before a sore left knee gradually took him out of practice and games. The injury was never regarded as serious, but was slow to heal and kept Miles out of full contact in practice until Saturday – four days before the season-opener.

He said he felt good and would have liked to play more than the training staff allowed him to. He was one of the last players off the court after practice, following a lengthy shooting session.

Now what?
