Nic Batum (wrist) still struggling to shoot
Nicolas Batum - G/F - Portland Trail Blazers
Feb. 3, 2013 - 10:50 AM ET

Nicolas Batum (wrist) said after Saturday's near triple-double, "I can't really shoot so I tried to do everything else."

He's one of a few players who can deliver elite value even with muted scoring totals, but ideally he can avoid aggravating the injury and rest up during the All-Star break. He logged 39 minutes in Saturday's victory so at least playing time isn't an issue.
