7 years agoCharlotte Hornets guard/forward Nicolas Batum continues to play well scoring 15 points in a loss to Denver on Monday. Over the last five games, Batum is averaging 20 points, 6.4 rebounds and 4.8 assists. On Monday, he added four rebounds and five assists in 31 minutes of action. Whether it's on purpose or not, Charlotte and Batum are putting on display what the wing player could add to a playoff roster. Batum is shooting 50 percent in his last five games and has clearly rediscovered his rhythm. The Hornets have a few days off before playing Portland on the road. If Batum is somehow available in your league, he needs to be added right away.--Wai Sallas
