Artest back to 100%?

Update: Artest (back) was moving so well at Saturday's practice, that Kings coach Eric Musselman said it was "the best he's ever looked, since the first of training camp," the Sacramento Bee reports.

Recommendation: Just two days ago, Artest was saying the back was 75 to 80 percent, but he's feeling much better as the Kings prepare to face the Hawks on Sunday. "I feel I'm back to normal," Artest said. "It's been about three weeks (with the back problems), almost a month, where I couldn't practice a lot, couldn't stay in game shape. Now I get a chance to play at 100 percent, like I can play. A lot of teams are going to have a lot of problems now."

^^ Look what happened to the loss column too when he rested

I know we could've still lost those games with Artest in the lineup but I just think Mike did what he thought was best for the team and not himself. Looks like he's getting healthier now though, so that's good

Edit: Hopefully this is true and Artest can dominate defensively like the 1st time he came here
