Udrih finished with four points (2-7 FG), five assists, one rebound and one steal across 19 minutes in a 114-109 win over the Rockets on Friday.
The Pistons' decision to shut down Reggie Jackson (knee) for the season has opened up a rotation spot for Udrih, who is now regularly seeing minutes in the teens while backing up Ish Smith. While the veteran has performed capably in that capacity, he's unlikely to see his role increase over the final three games of the regular season, especially with Smith continuing to play well. Udrih has averaged 6.6 points, 5.0 assists, 2.3 rebounds in 16.6 minutes per game since entering the rotation seven games ago.
