Hunter: Beasley has earned more minutes
Jan. 30, 2013 - 1:35 AM ET

Interim coach Lindsay Hunter said Michael Beasley has "definitely" earned himself more minutes.

In four games under Hunter, Beasley has come off the bench and is averaging just 21.8 minutes per game. But he's made the most of those minutes, getting 16.0 points and 5.2 rebounds while shooting 50.9 percent from the field. It's a situation to monitor for owners in search of points, but we've seen the holes in Beasley's fantasy game. In 20 starts earlier this year, he shot 37.4 percent from the field and managed just 3.9 rebounds and 2.4 assists per night.
