Ibaka posted 18 points (8-16 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 0-2 FT), nine rebounds, and three blocks in 35 minutes of action Monday against the Grizzlies.

Ibaka's performance Monday resembled a rather average one for the big man, who has averaged 15.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 2.6 blocks over the last five games. He's attempted more field goals over the last two games (16.0 FGA) compared to his season average (12.4 FGA), perhaps due to the absence of Kevin Durant (hamstring), but this behavior won't last long when Durant returns. Still, he's capable of grabbing boards, hitting treys, and swatting shots, which makes him a strong option moving forward, even when Durant comes back.
