Thunder's Enes Kanter: Nears double-double off bench versus Jazz
Kanter scored 15 points (7-12 FG, 1-1 FT) while adding nine rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 109-106 win over the Jazz.
Analysis:
Kanter played effectively off the bench for the second straight game, finishing third on the team in scoring and barely missing a double-double despite playing fewer than 30 minutes yet again. After a rough outing in his first game back from injury, Kanter is averaging 17.5 points (on 62 percent shooting) and nine rebounds in 25.5 minutes per game over his last two. He should continue to play a large role as a reserve.
