Budinger scored just nine points (4-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt) despite playing 28 minutes Friday in a loss to the Bucks. In his previous 10 games Budinger averaged 20.9 minutes and he played more minutes Friday than Shabazz Muhammad, who had been one of the best scorers on the Timberwolves. However, Budinger hasn't scored more than 13 points since Dec. 21 and is averaging just 2.5 rebounds per game this year, so he's not worth using.
