Frank Vogel is sticking with Hibbert
Roy Hibbert - C - Indiana Pacers

Coach Frank Vogel remains committed to a heavy role for Roy Hibbert despite the center's offensive struggles.
Hibbert is shooting a ghastly 39.5 percent from the field and 64.3 percent from the line. But he's still seeing 28.6 minutes per night thanks to his defensive prowess. "He's working through it," Vogel said. "He's a big reason why game in and game out, typically we're seeing under 40 percent field goal percentage from our opponents." Hibbert came into this season shooting 48.0 percent for his career. There's some buy-low appeal here.
