Victor Claver News: Claver isn't a part of the Blazers' regular rotation, logging just four minutes in three appearances to date this season.

Claver isn't a part of the Blazers' regular rotation, logging just four minutes in three appearances to date this season.

A nine-man lineup has rushed out to a 9-2 record, which shouldn't spur coach Terry Stotts to turn to the Spaniard on the wing, despite his intangibles. If Portland's potent offense (104.9 points per game) falls off its current pace and a defensive presence is required, Claver could be called upon for his defensive know-how. For now, though, he remains an afterthought in terms of fantasy.
