Nicolas Batum shot 7-of-12 from the field for 24 points with two rebounds, three assists, three blocks and four 3-pointers against the Rockets on Friday. Wrist injuries don't seem to be quite so bothersome when shots are falling. Batum only attempted 6.5 shots per game over his previous four, so this is encouraging news even before taking into account that he shot the ball well. He's a stud and should be in all lineups.
