Batum scores two points in win over Spurs
Nicolas Batum - G/F - Portland Trail Blazers
March 9, 2013 - 5:50 AM ET
Nicolas Batum scored just two points in Friday's blowout win over the Spurs, hitting 1-of-5 shots with eight rebounds, five assists and two blocks in 38 minutes.
The Blazers can't really afford to play their bench, so even in a blowout their starters got heavy minutes. Batum's shooting wrist injury is going to be a drag for the rest of the year, but as you can see he's not going to fall off in other categories. He just might defer more than normal, like tonight when Damian Lillard, J.J. Hickson and LaMarcus Aldridge combined for 84 points.
