Chase Budinger scored 18 points on 4-of-6 shooting (1-of-3 3PTs, 9-of-10 FTs) with four rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one block in 27 minutes off the bench on Friday against the Pacers.
Budinger, who scored the game-winner on a last-second backdoor cut, is the favorite to start at shooting guard for however long Brandon Roy (knee) is out, though Roy traveled with the team and could be back relatively soon by the latest reports. Regardless, Budinger has averaged 15 points and 1.3 treys over his last three games and is worth a look.
