Brook Lopez shot 9-of-12 from the field and made all eight of his free throws for 26 points with 11 rebounds, two assists and three blocks in 27 minutes as the Nets beat the Bobcats 97-81 on Friday.
The 11 boards matched his season high and 26 points were just below the 27 he had back in the season opener. Lopez has put up very useful stats while he's healthy and he should be started with confidence in all leagues.
