Nazr Mohammed started last night for the Charlotte Bobcats, that makes 9 former Cats who have started at least one game this year in the NBA. Unfortunately Charlotte lost a close one to Indiana, 104-103. Mohammed went 4 of 9 shooting, making 1 of his 2 free throw attempts for 9 points total. He was able to add 8 rebounds, 2 steals and a block in 26:47 of play.
Keith Bogans showed improvement, as he and the Bulls overcame Utah 91-86. Bogans played only 16:57 (which I still think is low for a starter), but managed 2 of 3 shooting (all from long range) and 1 of 2 from the charity stripe for 7 points total. He also nabbed 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block and 1 steal for a +2 over/under.
Tayshaun Prince and the Pistons beat the lowly Cavaliers 103-94. Prince had an off night, shooting 4 of 13 (2 of 2 three-pointers) for 10 points on the night. He also had 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks for a flat (0) over/under.
Eric Bledsoe’s Clippers pulled away from Kelenna Azubuike’s Knicks with a win 116-108. Bledsoe went 6 of 13 from the field and 2 of 2 from the line for 16 points on the night. He finished his stat line with 8 rebounds and 3 assists (+1 over/under). Azubuike did not play.
Jodie Meeks and the 76ers dropped one to Daniel Orton’s Magic, 99-95. Meeks shot 5 of 13 (2 of 9 from long range) and made all 5 of his free throws for 17 points total. He also got 8 rebounds, an assist and a steal in 36:58 of play. Orton did not play.
Sacramento (DeMarcus Cousins) lost a heartbreaker to Dallas 102-100, but Cousins received Player of the Game accolades. He shot 8 of 16 from the field, 3 of 5 from the line for 19 points total. Cousins achieved another double-double with 15 rebounds, a steal and a block.
John Wall helped the Wizards stomp the Bucks 100-85. Wall went 5 of 9 shooting (including 1 from outside the arc) and made all 4 of his free throw attempts for 15 points overall. He made a +14 over/under on 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and a block in 33:52 of play.
