Pistons' Steve Blake: Gets 18 minutes Wednesday

Blake contributed six points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds, and two assists in 18 minutes during the Pistons' 118-114 loss to the Hawks on Wednesday.

Blake is averaging 5.8 points, 2.6 assists, and 1.5 rebounds in 19 minutes per contest during eight games in March. Spencer Dinwiddie (ankle) was available to play, but coach Stan Van Gundy didn't call his number. It's possible Dinwiddie eats away at some of Blake's minutes at some point going forward, but Blake does appear to have the backup point guard job on lock for now.
