Robin Lopez scores 16 points in loss
Robin Lopez - C - New Orleans Hornets
Feb. 2, 2013 - 11:55 PM ET

Robin Lopez shot 7-of-10 from the field for 16 points in a 115-86 loss to the Wolves on Saturday, adding two boards and one steal in 25 minutes.

The inability to rebound might be a genetic trait with Robin and his brother Brook both being sub-par on the glass. In his last two, Robin has just four rebounds combined and he has the third-lowest defensive rebounding rate this year among centers that play at least 20 minutes per game. However, in his last four games he's averaged 15.0 points and 1.5 blocks, which makes him worth owning in some standard formats.
