Hornets' Nicolas Batum: Finds his shot

Batum scored a season-high 20 points (7-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and added seven rebounds, four assists, and a steal in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 109-93 win over the 76ers.

Analysis:

Batum entered the game shooting just 27 percent from the field on the season, so his 7-for-15 mark offered some encouragement for fantasy owners. In spite of the overall lack of shooting proficiency, Batum has still been an asset through his contributions in assists and rebounds, two areas where he's separated himself from most other starting wings over the course of his career.
