Nikola Mirotic Posts Another Double-Double In Return To Lineup
6 years agoNew Orleans Pelicans forward Nikola Mirotic was back on the court on Wednesday after missing a couple of games and he showed that he hadn't picked up any rust, going for a 16-point, 10-rebound double-double against the Timberwolves. His struggles from deep continued with a 2-for-8 effort, but he shot a solid 7-for-14 overall. Mirotic now has double-digit rebounds in each of his last seven outings, with him become a nightly double-double threat this season. He's set for another good matchup on Friday against the Knicks, who are allowing power forwards to score 24.2 points per 48 minutes against them this season with 11 rebounds.
