Mike Miller didn’t make the trip to New York and will miss his second consecutive game after re-injuring that sprained ankle against Houston Saturday.

Sebastian Telfair will be there at Madison Square Garden, in his hometown.

His cousin, Stephon Marbury, the former Timberwolf, will not.

Marbury is the Knicks’ exiled and estranged point guard who has been paid his $20.8 million salary to stay away from the team since late November, when he refused to play in a game in Detroit after the Knicks had kept him sitting on the bench in streetclothes for the season’s opening month.

The New York Post theorized today that the Knicks could target Wolves guard Sebastian Telfair, in whom they had some interest before they signed Chris Duhon last summer, for an open roster spot, although what his trade value is or what the Knicks have to offer is always a question.

The Post reports Marbury is still on a California vacation and won’t see his cousin tonight, but says Marbury plans to be in Minnesota for the Wolves’ Jan. 2 game against Golden State.
