Steve Blake played 34 minutes against the Suns on Monday scoring 13 points with one board, four assists, one steal and one 3-pointer. He's been the clear winner of the Kobe Bryant injury and played in 35 minutes in his previous two games over the weekend. Blake shots the three and can hand out some assists, so might have some short-term value. Although, the Lakers don't play again until Friday and Kobe could be back for that game.
