Warriors' Brandon Rush: Contributes five points off bench

Rush contributed five points (5-6 FT) and five rebounds in 16 minutes off the bench Wednesday against Phoenix.

The game was representative of how Rush has performed of late, as he's seen a limited role off the bench in recent weeks. The Kansas product averaged 5.8 points and 2.5 rebounds in 16.9 minutes per game in January and has put up similar per-minute numbers over a limited February sample. Rush's role will vary night-to-night depending upon the situation, as was evidenced earlier this week when he played only three minutes in a win over the Rockets.
