Ajinca will man center for the inactive Omer Asik (back) on Monday in Portland, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports. Ajinca has averaged a measly 8.5 minutes per game on the season, with two DNPs in eight contests, but a boost to his workload can be expected. While he's unlikely to approach a full complement of minutes due to the presence of Jeff Withey and Ryan Anderson in the frontcourt, Ajinca has posted per-36 output of 13.4 points and 7.8 rebounds in his brief run, which could be profitable if a streaming option is required.
