Thunder's Andre Roberson: Goes scoreless in Game 2

Roberson scored no points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT) and added three rebounds, three steals, and one assist in 24 minutes during Monday's 98-97 Game 2 win over the Spurs.

Analysis:

Roberson was even less involved on offense than normal this one, but his contributions on the other end of the court didn't go unnoticed. After coach Billy Donovan suggested after the Thunder's blowout loss in Game 1 that some lineup changes could be afoot, Roberson stuck in the starting five for Game 2 and proved his worth while locking down Kawhi Leonard. Roberson and Dion Waiters combined to hold Leonard to just 14 points on 7-for-18 shooting Monday, which was key in helping the Thunder hold the lead for much of the game. Look for Roberson to continue sticking in the rotation so long as he's able to limit Leonard's offensive output, but don't expect it to translate to much interesting fantasy production.
