John Salmons quiet in 38 minutes
John Salmons - G/F - Sacramento Kings
March 7, 2013 - 3:20 AM ET

Unlike teammates DeMarcus Cousins and Isaiah Thomas, John Salmons got plenty of playing time on Wednesday night, but just couldn't get anything going, hitting 2-of-9 shots and a 3-pointer for five points, three boards and four assists in 38 minutes.

This is not the line his owners were looking for, but it's hard to argue with all the minutes and opportunity he got tonight. He's had some big games recently, and as long as the minutes stay consistent, he will have more big nights going forward. But the reality is, that regardless of the minutes he gets, he's simply an inconsistent performer.
