Danilo Gallinari began his rehab on Wednesday and is progressing.
"I feel better," Gallinari said. "For example, I'm sleeping without pain. I didn't sleep for a lot of months. So it's a big improvement. Pain is not the same. I'm feeling a lot better. Hopefully I'll be perfect in the next three months and be ready for training camp."

Eddy Curry and his agent have arranged for the big man to head to Detroit this off-season to lose weight, get his body in shape, and regain control of his basketball career.
Curry's Twitter message was as follows: "In detroit with my uncle "WES" I'm spending the summer here working out. Wish me luck!!!"
Curry is referring to William "Wes" Wesley, the man who is a key catalyst and deal-maker in the world of the NBA.
Wesley is also a close friend of LeBron James. Curry and James have the same agent, Leon Rose.

David Lee is a restricted free agent this summer and though he is optimistic about remaining with the Knicks, he acknowledges the reality of the uncertainty.
"I wouldn't say I'm uneasy, but there's definitely more doubt than past years," Lee told the New York Post. "I think I'll be here in New York. This is where I want to be. I expect other teams will be very interested. We're open to all offers."
According to sources, Donnie Walsh wants to sign Lee but not if his asking price is $10 million per year.
"My job is done," Lee said. "It's up to Mr. Walsh and [agent Mark] Bartlestein. They've worked together for a long time."
RealGM Note: Lee was ranked 11th in season FIC and with a Reina Value of +911%, 'deserved' a salary of $18.1M. But the FIC is strictly a statistical measurement and Mike D'Antoni's system, coupled with a dearth of other rebounders on the Knicks clearly contributed to the high ranking.
