Mavericks' Nerlens Noel: Cleans glass Saturday vs. Raptors

Noel notched three points (1-3 FG, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds and one block across 25 minutes during Saturday's 94-86 loss to the Raptors.

Analysis:

Despite drawing the start, Noel only just 25 minutes of action, and wasn't a focus on the offensive end. That being said, he controlled the boards in his limited minutes, ripping down an impressive five offensive rebounds. With the Mavericks all but out of the playoff picture, Rick Carlisle has been experimenting with his rotations, likely trying to find something that can stick for next season. As a result, Noel's minutes may be inconsistent from here on out, and could make for a risky DFS play even when he does start.
