Booker see added playing time due to the recent news that Nene will miss four-to-six weeks with a sprained MCL.

Analysis:

Nene left Sunday's game in the third quarter, yet Booker finished the contest with a mere eight minutes, while Kevin Seraphin logged 25. Booker did average 16.6 minutes in the previous five games, all of which both Nene and Seraphin were healthy for. Look for Booker to see more than eight minutes Tuesday, though it's unclear how the playing time will be divided. Al Harrington -- who played eight minutes Sunday -- recently returned after missing 14 weeks and could also be a factor. Ultimately, Booker is likely to see a boost in value because of Nene's injury, but the situation is cloudy and still bears watching. None of the players involved have a ton of upside, and a mix-and-match approach may make sense, given that Booker, Harrington and Seraphin all bring different things to the table.
