Celtics' Jonas Jerebko: Steady, modest bench role continues

Jerebko posted four points (2-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist across 23 minutes in Sunday's 105-95 win over the Heat.

Analysis:

Jerebko continues to produce steady, yet modest numbers off the bench. Coach Brad Stevens clearly appreciates Jerebko's ability to play both forward spots, as the 6-foot-10 big man provides nice spacing on offense and a boost of energy on defense. He'll never lead the team in shot attempts, but for very deep leagues, Jerebko could be useful roster fodder. Through the first nine games of December, he's averaging 4.8 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.8 three-pointers in 17.8 minutes per contest.
