Kaman was dropped from the starting lineup prior to Wednesday's game against Houston and did not play during the game.

Analysis:

Kaman has only appeared in three games this season due to being buried on Portland's depth chart. Despite starting Monday, Kaman was benched due to his poor play in favor of noah Vonleh. The big man has totaled just 10 points and eight rebounds this season, and shouldn't be expected to play much unless injuries force him into the lineup for the Blazers.
