Hickson plays just 16 minutes to start week
J.J. Hickson - F/C - Portland Trail Blazers
March 18, 2013 - 9:55 PM ET

J.J. Hickson played just 16 minutes on Monday, scoring four points on 2-of-5 shooting with six rebounds and no steals or blocks.

That's one way to make a five-game week look like a four-game week, and with no report of an injury it looks like Terry Stotts simply went away from Hickson. Meyers Leonard (six points, three rebounds) and Joel Freeland (six points, four rebounds) combined to play 27 minutes, and we doubt that's a trend going forward.
