Enes Kanter Struggles In Game 2, Plays Just 19 Minutes
6 years agoPortland Trail Blazers center Enes Kanter did not provide much in his 19 minutes of action in the Game 2 loss on Thursday to the Warriors. Kanter provided just five points with four rebounds as he looked sluggish and continued to have issues defending the pick and roll. Kanter is still battling through his shoulder injury and is still fasting for religious purposes, which also means he cannot take anything to relieve the pain in his shoulder. The Blazers went with Zach Collins, but he picked up five fouls in eight minutes. We did see some positive minutes out of Meyers Leonard who had seven points and six rebounds in 17 minutes and is worth a look as a punt play for Game 3.
