Analysis:

As expected, Ibaka made his preseason debut after battling a sprained ankle for most of camp. Coach Scott Brooks limited his minutes, holding him to 21 against the Raptors and 25 against the T'Wolves. Ibaka struggled from the field (4-12 FG) Friday, finishing with eight points and six rebounds. He found his stride Sunday, however, connecting on 5-of-7 field goal attempts and finishing with 12 points, six rebounds and two blocks. Ibaka also converted his only three-point attempt.
