Hickson posts 15 & 12 in limited minutes
J.J. Hickson - F/C - Portland Trail Blazers
Jan. 20, 2013 - 5:15 AM ET
J.J. Hickson scored 15 points and hauled in 12 rebounds vs. Milwaukee on Saturday, adding one steal and one block in just 24 minutes of action.
He wasn't in foul trouble but reserve F Luke Babbitt was opening things up offensively, Bucks center Larry Sanders had been ejected, and Hickson was nowhere to be found in the fourth quarter. Last Sunday vs. OKC he was benched for the final 16 minutes, but he was back on the court in crunch time vs. the Nuggets on Tuesday and the Cavaliers on Wednesday. In the aggregate he's a reliable late-middle round option, though we sure wish Terry Stotts would stop toying with his minutes.
