Lee supplied 20 points (6-16 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 8-8 FT), three rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 41 minutes during Monday's 113-105 win against the Magic.
Coming off his best month of the season (February), in which he averaged 12.2 points (on 54.3 percent shooting), 3.7 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.8 threes (on 46.2 percent), 1.3 steals, and 0.3 blocks in 32.2 minutes per night, Lee stepped up on offense with Carmelo Anthony sidelined due to a sore knee. Lee is not known for earning lots of trips to the charity stripe, but he ended up just one shy of matching his career high in free throws made and attempted. Excluding two October contests, Lee has averaged more than 30 minutes in every month thus far, and his season average (31.6 per) is the second highest of his career. Nevertheless, this hasn't translated into reliable production outside of deeper leagues.
