Bass put up another strong performance Monday and is averaging 16.7 points, 10.7 rebounds and 3.3 assists over his last three games. The key to his success this season has been getting enough playing time. He has played at least 33 minutes in each of his last three games, leading to the improved production. He should continue to contribute when he gets enough minutes, but that's not a guarantee when taking into consideration the Celtics inconsistent rotations.

Bass had another good game, but don't expect this to be something that lasts. His name has been swirling in trade talks and he could find himself in a diminished role overnight.
